Spectacular comeback
16 June 2005
For the chapter of astonishing comebacks in the world of music we can add Marius
Dragomir the one who 10 years ago made waves with the song Party in Transylvania.
The singer Marius Dragomir was away for 3 months in America with business.
Promoted by Americans.
More precisse, he worked together with the mezzo-soprano Nicoleta Strauss, a
Romanian established 7 years ago in "the promise Land. In all this time I´ve
orchestrated and composed Nicoleta’s album but i also have recorded two songs
together with her. The fans at home will be surprised to hear me sing a sort
of canto. Also as news, the singer will be recording a video for the song
"Per L’eternita". And here come the good parts, wenn we tell you that the
chosen place is The Peles Castle. "There has never been filming here, but my
team received all the approvals". And like a paradox, the americans will promote
it in Europe. "There will be releases of my album in Italy, France, Spain,
maybe also in Romania". Marius is dissapointed by the fact that there´s no more
good money out of music in his country.
Boycott.
He is convinced that he was never promoted to he’s full value: "I don’t believe
that an artist is in style or out of style and that it would be a reason not to
be promoted enough. I am convinced that you don’t even know how many albums I´ve
recorded and how many were a success even if they were only put on sale and not
promoted. It would be nice if the record companies would promote and not just
boycott. I was often told : Let it be, Marius sales anyhow". With all of the
inconveniences, the singer who once made the successful record: Party in
Transylvania does not think of leaving his country. In a personal note,
Marius has just recovered from a bad divorce, but he was also courted by an
american women and he almost came back with a wedding ring. "I was courted, and
even had a chance to get married again, but I don’t believe in the institution
of marriage anymore.”
After he left all his belongings to his ex-wife, the artist has a new thing he
can brag about: "I built a house in Brasov that looks like a mansion, near
the forest. Everything in the house is rustic on the walls there are hanging
swards, arches, shields. The is also a tile brick stow like my grandmother
had." He is in cold relations with he's ex, but he tries to visit his kids once
a month:" I'm participating actively in their razing. They will start school
in autumn and I will be there for them".
