2) Polish disco polo band
1)Akcent was founded by Adrian Claudiu Sînă in 1999, along with female vocalist Ramona Barta. At that time, Adrian worked as a DJ at Radio contact. Their debut album Senzatzia, released in 2000 as cassette only, was electro-pop. It contained the song Ultima Vara (Last summer), which was a summer hit in Romania. Then Ramona left, and 3 nice-looking boys took her place: Sorin Brotnei, Mihai Gruia and Marius Nedelcu. Akcent had become a boys band. The second album În culori was released in Romania on January 10, 2002 and was certified gold within the 3 first weeks. It included the single "Ţi-am promis".
In 2003, they released their third album 100 BPM, featuring the songs "Buchet de trandafiri" (bouquet of roses) and "Suflet pereche" (soulmate), which were quite successful. Then in 2004 came the album Poveste de viață (Story of a life), with a radical change of style.
Following the steps of O-zone, they gained international recognition with their European hit "Kylie" (#21 in France, also a small hit in North America), which was the English version of the song "Dragoste de inchiriat". Followed their first album in English French Kiss With Kylie, composed with Gigi d'Agostino, and released in Europe on August 23, 2006. Then came the single Jokero which competed to represent Romania at ESC 2006, but was not selected. Then, they released a best of album entitled Primul Capitol and started an international tour. Follow-up single "French Kiss" (English version of 9 mai) was a cover of Stela Enache's "Extemporal la dirigenţie".
2007: King of Disco was the name of their new album. 2 singles were taken from this album: "King of Disco" (an homage to Madonna, in the current disco-pop revival style) and "Red Bikini".
2008: Marius Nedelcu left the project to start a solo career. Corneliu Ulici, formerly from boys band Bliss, took his place, but left after only 6 months. Only one single was released this year: "Umbrela ta".
2009: Akcent released their new album Fără lacrimi (Without Tears), with the now famous accordion hooks. The international version of the album was renamed True Believers. Edward Maya contributed to the singles "Stay With Me" and "That's My Name", which charted in whole Europe.
2010: Akcent ceased their collaboration with Edward Maya, accusing him of having stolen the melody of "That's My Name" for his own single "Stereo Love". Adrian Sână started composing alone new songs for the project, in parallel with him new solo career under the name Adrian Sina. New singles "Love Stoned" and "My Passion" had a lot of success, especially in Arab countries, Pakistan and India.
In September 2013, the band split after a quarrel, leaving Sînă as its only member.According to Adrian, he felt betrayed by the other members; Mihai and Sorin.But according to Mihai and Sorin the issue was a bit different. According to them, the issue was not about the money, as fans might think or Adrian told others. It was all about the behavior of Adrian towards them which changed simultaneously. According to them, parting ways is not an issue but Adrian shouldn't use the name Akcent, as it was a collective property of the group.After disbandment Mihai and Sorin founded their own band, "TWO" and a record label "Mango Music". After the band split Akcent released two singles "Lacrimi Drug" and "Boracay".

That's My Name
Akcent Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I will keep you
In my heart
Forever
In my heart
And you are the one that lights the fire
I am the one who takes you higher
That's my name, that's my name, that's my name
All the time I thought about you
I saw your eyes and they were so blue
I could read there just one name
My name, my name, my name
Because of you I'm flying higher
You give me love, you set on fire
You keep me warm when you call my name
That's my name, that's my name, that's my name
In my heart
I will keep you
In my heart
Forever
In my heart
And you are the one that lights the fire
I am the one who takes you higher
I lose my voice when you say my name
That's my name, that's my name, that's my name
All the time I thought about you
I saw your eyes and they were so blue
I could read there just one name
My name, my name, my name
Because of you I'm flying higher
You give me love, you set on fire
You keep me warm when you call my name
That's my name, that's my name, that's my name
In my heart
I will keep you
In my heart
Forever
And you are the one that lights the fire
I am the one who takes you higher
I lose my voice when you say my name
That's my name, that's my name, that's my name
And you
You will stay in my heart as I knew from the start
And you
You will stay in my heart, never keep you apart
And you
You will stay in my heart as I knew from the start
And you
You will stay in my heart, never keep you apart
The lyrics of Akcent's "That's My Name" are about a love so intense that it is portrayed as being all-consuming, as the singer loses his voice when his lover says his name. The love interest in the song is also the one who lights the fire and takes the singer higher, and he feels that she is the one he has been searching for all his life. He also says that she will always stay in his heart and that he will never be apart from her.
The repeated phrase "That's my name, that's my name, that's my name" takes on different meanings throughout the song. At first, it represents the power of the singer's love interest in his life, but later in the song, it becomes something that the singer uses to identify himself. He feels that his identity is intertwined with his love for the woman, and that he could not be himself without her.
Overall, the lyrics are a poetic representation of a passionate love affair, where the very presence of the other person is enough to make life brighter and more meaningful. It's a romantic song that captures the intensity of young love, and the feeling that nothing in the world could ever replace the person who has captured your heart.

This song reminds me of my teenage years. The hot summer nights, looking at the stars and thinking about summer passions. nostalgia cannot be described in words, only feelings.
