This is a far more enthralling song than Dragostea Din Tei. When the song fires up, the melody that sounds like a controlled scratch sound from a broken record in the high pitch range instantly grabs your attention. In the video, that sound seems to be created by the electric guitars, but I am pretty sure it is just a synced sound for video effect. This song simply conveys a good mood and is a very good song to dance to or bob your head to. To me, the most interesting part lies in the whistling. The simplicity of the short phrase can be easily whistled by the listener. Since everyone can make a noise by blowing wind through their mouth, this song in a way commands you to do so also. In a way, this song sneaks up behind you and takes on the role of a favorite song that you tend to hum when it plays on the radio. If not immediately after the first listen, maybe after the second repeat. In addition... in trance music... you rarely hear whistles as part of the ambient.
Another good aspect is the part where the guys go "WOAAAAAA....... HEYYYYYYYYYYYYY!" at the end. I'm sure everyone has a favorite song that contains some very high pitched notes that they attempt to sing out loud for the heck of releasing the tension built up from the song. This little detour also has that same effect, I mean you can't help but try to yell out WOAAA and HEYYYY and then throw in song whistles. By the time you realized, you are creating your own version of the song. Most probably, you are in a very blissful mood after a few listens.
Another thing I need to touch on is the simple "la la, la la lay!" parts of the lyrics. It is also something simple that you can also sing out with ease that is actually quite enjoyable to do so. I think its mainly the way its sung that makes it especially enticing. I mean... the guy sounds like he's got something stuck in his throat that makes him sing his lungs out.
Overall, this song is beyond captivating, it is more like a song that lets you become your own musician for the duration of the song. The catchy beat and simple lyrics make this song fun and addicting. Dragostea Din Tei and Despre Tine are the only two songs by Ozone that I have listened to repeatedly non stop for 10 to 15 repeats in one sitting before I notice and change tracks. Not that it is bad or anything, but any good song becomes boring and annoying after 15 repeats. Enjoy!
