MC's a great music arranger & composer ; but the vocals are so poor, and so similar with Samuraï : at least did he get the great idea - at one time - to have his productions sung by Sandra & other (unknowwn & enigmatic!) vocalists. Respect, Michael! Long live Romania!
The manager of Michael Cretu and Stefan Zauner told me that the backing vocals were sung by Thissy Thiers (Moti Special, Cretu & Thiers), but I'm still convinced that this is Stefan Zauner singing. In the summer of 86, Zauner was recording the vocals for the Münchener Freiheit album "Traumziel" in Cretu's Data Alpha Studios in Munich, and I guess Cretu was asking him to do the backing vocals on this track. Unfortunately, the tune was no success anywhere. And still it remains unreleased on CD!
@greencase well it was a simpler time and people tended not to scrutinize things the way we do now.. besides, i prefer the lip syncing because when i go to a concert i want to hear the studio quality - not some singer struggling with the vocals...
@tatianaali3 i think is steve hall, the sandra´s bass guitar and also vocalist in maria magdalena (that song is from cretu). awesome composer, enigma is also part of my life.
@SevenLivesManyFaces Hey thanks again..i just finished reading his biography..very interesting...sad how girls get used,abused and dumped once their looks & bodies expire... they go from being ripe to rotten...just like apples...sad
@bambambullies1 They have 2 sun's and have been divorced more than a year. Why not visit this site about him to read his Biography michaelcretu. com or vist Enigmamusic. com you will learn everything there.
and apparently, neither does the drums ... real drums with electronic sound ... strange ... and without microphones to capture sound. The strangest thing ... synthesizers without its power supply cables and connections to the audio outputs of these ...
I get the idea that the Lord Cretu as an artist on stage is a good producer ... hahahahah ...
As a solo artist, he didnt brake outside of europe, but as a music producer and song writer he was very successful and has sold more albums and had more success than Simon Cowell, its funny how now after all these years people all over the world come across his old solo music that wasn't successful at the time and now think its great, what his old work needed was more exposure. one of his special qualities is longevity!
Ya it would seem that way sort of but it wasn't. It's just producing music in Germany is totally different than doing it in Canada or USA. You don't get awards for how famous you are... you get awards for how many albums you sell.
Cretu ist der beste !!! Unglaublich wie Sounds und Rhythmus immer noch wohltuend aus der heutigen Musik herausstechen ! An alle Musikproduzenten: So macht man klasse Pop-Musik !!!
@maryJsk Yeah, romanian no doubt...but he's now german...and the german experience is important as well...don't forget it. Cheers from...France :-) ...
i thought soloist from balgarian group Laban were the same person as Michael until i realize differences between them LOL ...and now i'm a big fan of Cretu's creativity...after all those years he still rocks...unbelievable...yes he's not THAT much popular, but hell who said every damned talanted person should be hardcore celebrity anyway...
i dont know if its woman's voice or not, but it doesnt sounds like Sandra to me, like someone guessed here...here voice is THE WAY much high pithced...
Yes, luckykitty, he was and still is a good looking guy. Besides that he's a great musician and his musical project ENIGMA is the best think I've ever heard.
(Kitty, pay atention to the final seconds of the video: we can see his beatiful smile!)
Michael Cretu is ThE Best Musicer on this FuCkiNg WorlD and 2 MozaRT but NEWAGE MOZART AND BEttEr!!!I LIKE ALL SONgS!"New AlBuM Is VeRy NiCe Buy IT !!musT HAve all FunS!!!
To me, Cretu's vocal is the best vocal that I have heard and will ever hear!!! It has just something that is unique to it. I LOVE YOU CRETU!
