The name means "Bitter Moon" in Romanian, and is borrowed from the Roman Polański movie of the same name, inspired by the eponymous novel written by Pascal Bruckner.
The band was founded in September 1999 under the name Tanagra Noise by Nick Fagadar (vocals, guitar) and Gheorghe Farcas (bass guitar). In 2000 they changed it to the current name, Luna Amara. The band has played on stage over 200 times in the past five years, throughout Romania. As a live act, this Romanian five-piece outfit has a style that combines modern heavy metal with alternative rock.
All the artists in the band want to dedicate their lives to promote and support a modern European society in Romania. Luna Amara is involved in ecological projects such as "Save Vama Veche" (protecting the endangered seahorses), "Save Rosia Montana" (protecting the wildlife and natural surroundings of a historical mining area from cyanide poisoning) and social awareness projects, such as the recent "Vote for Them" tour, organized to convince young adults to vote.
Considered a "cult band", Luna Amara is currently Romania's most successful group from the new wave of rock acts. The "Folclor" ("Folklore"), "Gri Dorian" ("Dorian Grey"), "Rosu aprins" ("Scarlet") and "Ego nr. 4" singles reached number one in airplay charts at local radio stations around the country.
In January 2006 they released the album "Loc lipsa" (Missing Place). The band performed a 40 dates tour all over Romania in clubs and open air locations as well as shows in Holland, Germany, Bulgaria and Turkey. For the 2nd time running, Luna Amara has been invited to play live at Sziget Festival in Budapest.

Ego nr 4
Luna Amara Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Cat de mult ti-ai dori sa crezi
Nu poti fara sa vezi

Cat de mult te urasti cand pierzi
Nu poti sa visezi

Ce ciudat este sa nu simti nimic
Vreau sa ma ridic

Ce ciudat e sa nu mai zic
Vreau sa mor un pic

Alerg si alerg si incerc sa scap
Alerg si alerg si totul se intampla
Doar in cap

Numai altii sunt nebuni
Tu esti cel mai bland si bun
Numai altii-s vinovati
Numai altii sunt ratati

Cat de mult vreau sa te vad
Si sa nu pot sa te cred
Nu vreau sa te cunosc
Sa o cunosc - sa il cunosc
Sa ma cunosc - sa va cunosc

Nu -
Vreau numai sa fug!

Overall Meaning

The song "Ego nr 4" by Luna Amara explores the themes of self-hatred, denial, and escapism. The opening lines of the song talk about the struggle to believe in oneself, even when you can't see a way forward. The lyrics then delve into the darkness of self-loathing, where the singer is unable to dream or envision a future due to their own negative thoughts.

The chorus of the song speaks to the irony of feeling nothing, yet desperately wanting to feel something. The singer wants to break free from the cycle of negative thoughts and desires to rise above it all. However, the struggle to escape is a never-ending battle, as the bad thoughts persist in their mind. The lyrics suggest that the only way to escape the madness is to run away, but from what, they do not know.

Overall, the song is a melancholic reflection on the struggles of mental health and self-acceptance. The lyrics are poignant and relatable, and the somber melody adds an extra layer of emotion to the song.

Am auzit piesa asta pe TvKlumea sau AtomicTV acum muuuulti ani cand eram copil pe un TV cat un mini-frigider, mi-a ramas in minte refrenul ,,alerg si alerg si incerc sa scap, alerg si alerg ... doar in cap'', am regasit piesa cautand versurile pe care mi le aminteam dupa aproape douazeci de ani, genial :D
