Moldova's best known export

[topum]

Moldova is the least visited country in Europe (and one of the least visited in the world). We knew nothing about it before we visited it for the first time last year. Today I asked the guys here what was Moldova's best known export and they told me that it was O-Zone (one hit band) and this song in particular. And indeed I think I heard it before in London. I did not know that it was a Moldovan band though. The guy who wrote the song (the tallest of them) earned slightly over ten million euros from its international success and now lives in New York.

I remember when this song was pretty popular, or at least, more popular than it seems to be now. I did not know, or had forgotten, they are a Moldovan band.

I do not think it is popular now at all but it was really successful internationally for a couple of months about ten years ago I think. I am not into music but even I heard it.

I think this is the only thing coming from Moldova that is know internationally (even though most people who know this song probably do not know that it is Moldovan).

Ten years... such a long time... yet, that must be when I heard it, for it was all over the internet.
