New album ready before summer

Mihai Traistariu will sing in Chinese

Mihai Traistariu, the Romanian representative in the Eurovision Song Contest 2006, is preparing his new album that will include his new hit “Dimmi si o no” and a new song that will be partly in Chinese.

After earning 2,5 million euros from his Eurovision entry “Tornero” and after he changed his old car for a new purple sport one,  Mihai is now ready to release his new album. Even though he is trying hard to get it ready before summer, Mihai’s obligations all over Europe make the release almost impossible with half of the songs yet to be completed. This is what also happened  with his new video clip for the song “Dimmi si o no” which is not ready since the song began receiving promotion in January.

One song is partially written in Chinese. The song has a latino rhythm, with a summer dance melody. The  lyrics are half Chinese written by a Chinese professor. Mihai Traistariu will include this song on his new album and hopes that it will be released before the summer. After taking his chances in Italian, finishing 4th in the last year’s Eurovision Song Contest in Athens,  it remains  to see how will he succeed in the Chinese language.

I was sure Chinese language doesn't exist but there are Chinese dialects such as Mandarin, Cantonese and a bunch of others I don't recall now.

In my opinion the following 10 countries will pass to the final : Island, Serbia, Latvia, Israel, Cyprus, The Netherlands, Slovenia, Belarus, Turkey and Poland.

My top ten for the final is : Romania, Spain, France, Serbia, Greece, Germany, Israel, Island, Latvia and Cyprus!

I would really like to see : Romania, France, Germany, Island and Latvia in the top 5!

Good luck, to all the participants!

@Tyler and @ NiColas Vertigo(who is definetely not me ;-)

these are by no means the translation of the song in english...i have read somewhere the translation of the song in english and in french and the words were very different....and although i do not speak a word in serbish i know, Molitva is not Maria, but it means pray..lool

Owen
This site has to be funded some how so it is not surprising to see them take the opportunity to increase the advertising with Eurovision approaching. It will probably go back to how it was after the contest.

Haha, good luck. I Lived in china for a while and it's almost impossible to speak it right, depending on what tone you use for a word, it can have 4-5 different meanings :P

And Owen, if you use firefox you can block them!

Why does he stick to Italian when he has a horrible pronounciation? Not that his English is better...

Good luck in Helsinki, Romania! I adore your entry this year!

Well his English is rather strange so he might as well sing in Chinese.
