We say

We heard the Gabry Ponte Remix of Haiducii's Dragostea Din Tei on Radio Deejay while in Venice earlier this year and thought it sounded like a smash - like the best track Gigi D'Agostino never made. Sure enough, it then went to no. 1 in Italy, meaning it was the first version of the song to break. We feature it again now as HitMania are rushing it out in the UK to compete with Jive's release of the original O-Zone version (also recently featured here). One of the versions should be a hit everywhere in Europe, and in France they're both hits (O-Zone is no. 1 and Haiducii is no. 3). The Gabry Ponte is the best mix of the lot, for us.
