Morandi is a Romanian Europop music group composed of
Marius Moga and Andrei Ştefan Ropcea (Randi). The group's name derives from the
first two letters of Moga's name and Ropcea's nickname, Randi, creating
Morandi. In Romania the first release “Love me” broke the top hits, and people
were asking who was the mastermind behind this new sound. Nobody believed it
was from Romania. The secret was rising, as nobody knew Marius Moga and Andrei
Ropcea were planning the success. The secret was revealed when they released
the hit “Beijo (Uh la la)”, and Morandi’s first appearance was at MTV’s
Romanian Music Awards 2005.Aside from being successful in Romania, the group
ranked highly on several pan-European charts (including the MTV Europe chart
and the World Chart Express) and became probably the most successfully band in
the history of Eastern Europe after O-Zone.Their music is very popular among
young people in Russia, Bulgaria, Albania, Greece, Montenegro, Serbia, Slovakia,
Czech Republic, Poland, Republic of Macedonia, Lithuania and Ukraine. Morandi
were nominated as Best Romanian Act both at the 2005 MTV Europe Music Awards
and 2006 MTV Europe Music Awards and won the award at the 2008 MTV Europe Music
Awards. "Angels" was called "Most successful track 2008" in
