Mihai Biţă a debutat în trupa Ro-Mania, trupă care a lansat multe piese adaptate din folclorul românesc. La scurt timp, Mihai a părăsit trupa Ro-Mania şi împreună cu alţi trei băieţi, înfiinţează o nouă formaţie, numita Déjà Vu, trupă cu care a abordat o multitudine de stiluri, mergând de la RnB până la dance.
După un singur album Déjà Vu, Mihai Biţă se orientează spre hip-hop şi apare ca invitat la piesa “Fără tine/Without You” de pe albumul “Categoria grea/Heavy Weight” al trupei Parazitii.
The 2004 long-awaited debut of his first album, "Sevraj/Withdrawal" has managed to establish a new music coming from underground: urban soul. First single/video "Urmatorul Pas/Next Step" was an exceptional colabo with Tataee (B.U.G. Mafia) who also signs the music production. This was not Bitza’s first appeareance on video. His biggest achievment so far are the 5 nominations on the 2005 issue of the Romanian MTV Awards, after sharing media attention with Cheloo (Parazitii) for the great video “Vicii/Vices” - 4 nominations in 2004. Recorded, mixed and mastered in the most important studios in Romania, the album sold 30.000 sold units due to launching second video "Vorbeste Vinul/Wine Talks".
Before the summer of 2005, his second album - "Sinuciderea Unui Inger/Suicide of an Angel" - is launched. Two great video singles - "All Star" and "Take me slow (ft. Vanessa S)" - suported this production very well.
Bitza's third album, called "Fapte Bune/Good Deeds" hits the stores in 2007. Deeper than ever, the artist went hard on all tracks. At the same time he was doing great with score music for tv-serials.
On Christmas day 2008 Bitza wanted to give a gift to all of his fans thus releasing his fourth album, Sufletul Orasului, online on his website www.bitza.ro.
Goana dupa fericire/The Pursuit of Happiness" is Bitza's fifth studio album. It was released on the 4th of February 2010. The album was produce independently and distributed with the help of "Gazeta Sporturilor", a romanian magazine.
Memento Mori
Bitza Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cand totul se darama in jurul tau
Aminteste-ti sa nu-ti para rau,
Aminteste-ti de ce-ti spun acum,
O sa ramanem doar poze intr-un album.
Uneori as vrea sa fii ramas
Acelasi copil putin retras;
Craciunul, cu nasul lipit de geam.
As vrea sa nu inteleg tot ce inteleg acum.
Mi-as dorii sa nu spun ce spun.
Fara sa vrei, fara sa-ti dai seama
Nu ii mai ai in preajma pe tata si pe mama.
Totul e facut doar din franturi
Ai momente in care uiti sa te bucuri
Tot mai dese sunt in schimb momentele
In care vrei sa cedezi aceste vise rele.
Mult prea orbi ca sa vedem
Ne pierdem fara sa intelegem.
Din pamant ne intoarcem in pamant
Suntem, pana la urma, niste frunze-n vant
REFREN x 2
Totul e sigur, ca un jod de zaruri
Viata e ce se intampla in timp ce-ti faci planuri
Nu uita! Nu regreta!
Obosesti sa mai traiesti
Te intrebi in ce directie sa pasesti
Cand ti se par toate fara sfarsit
Iti gasesti bucuria intr-un rasarit.
Parca iti gasesti zambetu' printre riduri
Parca nu ai in jur atatea ziduri
Iti vine mai usor sa te minti
Sa nu se vada atunci cand strangi din dinti.
As vrea de mult de multe ganduri sa scap,
As vrea sa nu imi treaca prin cap ce imi trece prin cap,
As vrea sa nu fi scris tot ce-am scris,
Ma uit pe versuri si dau vina pe pïx.
REFREN x 2
The lyrics of Bitza’s “Memento Mori” are about the fragility and finiteness of life. The refrain reminds the listener to not feel bad when everything falls apart and to remember why the song is being sung, as we will become memories in an album. The song’s verses are about wishing to revert to a simpler time, to unlearn knowledge that has brought sorrow and to find happiness in life again.
The verse speaks of a child waiting for Christmas, unable to understand the complexities of adult life. The author wishes to turn back time to when life was simpler and to understand less. The outro refers to the inevitability of death, whereupon we return to the earth as leaves to the wind.
Overall, the song is about the fleeting nature of life and appreciating the present moment more.
Line by Line Meaning
Cand totul se darama in jurul tau
When everything around you falls apart
Aminteste-ti sa nu-ti para rau,
Remember not to feel sorry for yourself
Aminteste-ti de ce-ti spun acum,
Remember what I'm telling you now
O sa ramanem doar poze intr-un album.
We will only be photos in an album
Uneori as vrea sa fii ramas
Sometimes I wish you had stayed
Acelasi copil putin retras;
The same little withdrawn child
Acelasi copil, cand asteptam
The same child, when we waited
Craciunul, cu nasul lipit de geam.
For Christmas, with our nose pressed against the window.
As vrea sa nu inteleg tot ce inteleg acum.
I wish I didn’t understand everything I understand now
Mi-as dorii sa nu spun ce spun.
I wish I didn't say what I'm saying
Fara sa vrei, fara sa-ti dai seama
Unintentionally, without realizing it
Nu ii mai ai in preajma pe tata si pe mama.
You no longer have your mother and father around you.
Totul e facut doar din franturi
Everything is made up of fragments
Ai momente in care uiti sa te bucuri
You have moments where you forget to enjoy yourself
Tot mai dese sunt in schimb momentele
Increasingly frequent are those moments
In care vrei sa cedezi aceste vise rele.
When you want to give in, to these bad dreams.
Mult prea orbi ca sa vedem
Much too blind to see
Ne pierdem fara sa intelegem.
We lose ourselves without understanding.
Din pamant ne intoarcem in pamant
From the earth, we return to the earth
Suntem, pana la urma, niste frunze-n vant
In the end, we are just leaves in the wind
Totul e sigur, ca un joc de zaruri
Everything is certain, like a game of dice
Viata e ce se intampla in timp ce-ti faci planuri
Life is what happens while you're making plans
Nu uita! Nu regreta!
Don't forget! Don't regret!
Obosesti sa mai traiesti
You get tired of living
Te intrebi in ce directie sa pasesti
You wonder which direction to go
Cand ti se par toate fara sfarsit
When everything seems endless
Iti gasesti bucuria intr-un rasarit.
You find your joy in a sunrise.
Parca iti gasesti zambetu' printre riduri
As if you find your smile amongst wrinkles
Parca nu ai in jur atatea ziduri
As if you don't have so many walls around you
Iti vine mai usor sa te minti
It's easier for you to lie to yourself
Sa nu se vada atunci cand strangi din dinti.
So it won't show when you grit your teeth.
As vrea de mult de multe ganduri sa scap,
I've been wanting to escape many thoughts for a long time
As vrea sa nu imi treaca prin cap ce imi trece prin cap,
I wish I didn't think what I'm thinking
As vrea sa nu fi scris tot ce-am scris,
I wish I didn't write everything I've written
Ma uit pe versuri si dau vina pe pix.
I look at the lyrics and blame my pen.

Macar cineva stie sa faca muzica in Romania, cineva stie ca versurile trebuie sa aiba sens si ca trebuie sa-ti transmita un mesaj. Bravo Bitza si 20 CM.

PE VREMURI, cand posteai o sticla de Tanita, in spatele blocului, cu tovarasii...
"SEVRAJ"... imi pare rau ca albumul asta nu a vandut cateva sute de mii,
dar la fel s-a intamplat cu toti cei care au avut CEVA DE ZIS, de SCRIS, de PICTAT...

Respect! Multumim pentru ce faci pentru noi...
