First discographic release
The first discographic release comes rather late, in 1995, 13 years after the band's make-up. "Paper Clouds" and "Lumina" (The Light) are two of the songs that made it on the "Unplugged Romania" compilation (with Tavi Colen as vocalist). The first Voltaj Album came out a year late, in December, and it was called "Pericol de moarte" (Danger of Death) and Adrian Sârbu replaced Cristi Luca. The album was released by Roton music label. The album was actually a collection of the band's hits (The Light - Paper Clouds, Cenuşă şi diamant - Ash and Diamond, Ochii tăi - Your Eyes) and it encountered a lot of success among the fans and music specialists. The album release was unexpected and non-conformist and soon after the boys went to a promotion tour in all major cities in the country.
Major change
In 1998 takes place a major change inside the band: a new vocalist - Călin Goia and a new drummer - Paul Neacşu were introduced. The guitar and bass players remained the same. Unlike the previous transformations within the band composition, for the first time in the band's history, a significant change in the music style and image was also be felt. The first single release in this new formula was Queen's "We Will Rock You"
Asta-i Viaţa (That's how Life is).
On the 12th of February 1999 the "That's How Life Is" maxi-single was released and it soon became one of the first big hits of Voltaj. The media would refer to "That's How Life Is" as the best Romanian song released at the beginning of that year. The natural thing happened - an intensive promotion program: concerts all over the country and a series of TV appearances. The band starts working on a new album and a change of look was also in the guys' mind.
"Risk Maxim 2" (Maximum Risk 2)
The following album, "Risk Maxim 2" was released on the 11th of July 1999 and included 12 explosive tracks with hits as: "Asta-i Viaţa", The Army' 99 (a remake of one of the band's first songs), the new single The German Lesson, The Light (another one of the old songs, this time in an Eclipse version).
Bungee
The band's third album, "Bungee", came out in 2000 and its "piece of resistance" was the hit "Albinutza" (The Bee) that reached Romanian Top Five. "Zodia C" and "Un pas in faţă" (One Step Forward) were also very much enjoyed by the Romanian public. As a premiere for the Romanian music market, "Bungee" was a multimedia album, containing the video "Albinutza", a photo gallery of the guys as well as some interesting music links and a free access card to the Internet.
In December 2000 the single "Iarna" (Winter) was released and by the month of February 2001, the video was already playing on all Romanian music TV channels and it was thought to be a total smashing hit.
The band's first discographic release in the "new millennium" was the special edition of the album "Bungee", issued on the 15th of February and it was made up of 11 tracks plus "Winter" as bonus track
3D
In June 2001, the band changed the record label and they released "3D" under Cat Music/Media Services label.Two remarkable events that happened that year revolutionized the band's history: the switch of the record labels, since the boys left Rotoc for Cat Music, and the inspired change of sound provided by the same Bobby Stoica the keyboard player in the band.
The Final Change
In 2002, Voltaj undergoes a final transfromation, which is caused by the drummer - Paul Neacsu decides to move to U.S.,Oliver Sterian,former drummer of another Romanian pop rock band , Bere Gratis , would take his place.
2002, the absolute winner
2002 would have to be the year of "20" which met the greatest of succes and whose video was filmed on the Costinesti Beach(known to be the favorite beach to the Black Sea for hippy and carefree teenagers) recording a maximum audience of 15.000 people present on set. The impact of this hit generated a huge tour in 26 cities all over the country.
424
In April 2002 the band release a new maxi-single "...Tu"(You) which was meant to be dedication for each and every Voltaj fan. The single was announcing the coming out of a new album,"424", to be released on the 6th of August 2002. Another premiere for Romania was the issues of the first CD-Single, 10.000 lucky fans received letters signed by all the members of the band in which they were revealing the releasing, in the nearby future,of the video to "Scrisoare" (Letter)
"424" was being a very productive album which had the benefit of 4 singles, one of them being "Noapte Buna"(Good Night) that offered an interactiv karaoke video on the CD.
5 Years of Voltaj with a "Best of" and a Platinum Disc
In December 2003, Voltaj celebrated its 5 years of existence having the same members by releasing a "Best of" album and the record label offers the band the Platinum Disc for th big sales of "424".
"Povestea Oricui"(Anybody's Tale)
Voltaj' most recent album is called Anybody's Tale and it was promoted by a noteworthy live show,which took place in October 2004. The show was impressive and rather unique because there were used a huge video protector, spectacular pyrotechnical effects and the boys invited some special guests on stage. The show was to be on everybody's lips for weeks and the band's outstanding performance made the subject of Voltaj first DVD release.
There have been released 4 videos so far from the album Myself and I,So what,Anyone's Tale and the video filmed most recently Patapetine.It would be interesting to metion the fac that the feminine character in this video was played by Elena Basescu who is no other but the Romanian President's daughter.

Voltaj Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sa nu plec de langa ea
Au fost vremuri cand uitam
Tot ce-i promiteam
Au fost zile-n viata mea
Cand vroiam altceva
Dar acum stiu ca doar ea
E dragostea mea
Primavara dupa iarna grea
Cine nu-mi spune niciodata nu
E atat de simplu, doar tu
Au fost nopti cand astepta
Pana-n zori sa vin la ea
Au fost vremuri cand plangea
Din cauza mea
Au fost zile-n viata mea
Cand vroiam altceva
Dar acum stiu ca doar ea
E dragostea mea.
Cine poate sa imi dea
Primavara dupa iarna grea
Cine nu-mi spune niciodata nu
E atat de simplu, doar tu
Dine poate sa-mi spuna te iubesc
Cine poate sa ierte cand gresesc
Cine poate sa fie o viata asa
Cine poate sa-mi dea...
Cine poate sa imi dea
Primavara dupa iarna grea
Cine nu-mi spune niciodata nu
E atat de simplu, doar... Tu
The song "Tu" by Voltaj is a heartfelt romantic ballad about the depth of love and devotion between two people. The lyrics speak of the different phases and moments of a relationship, from the times when the singer wanted something else, to the nights when he would stay beside her, and the moments when she would cry because of him. However, despite everything, he now knows that she is the only one for him, and that she is his one true love. The chorus repeats the key message of the song, emphasizing that the person who can give him the spring after the cold winter, who never says no, who can say "I love you" and forgive him, and who can be by his side for his whole life is none other than "tu," meaning "you" in English.
The lyrics of "Tu" are a proclamation of love and devotion, and are enhanced by the beautiful melody and emotional vocals. The arrangement of the song is simple but effective, with acoustic guitar, subtle percussion and strings underscoring the vocals. The song is a testament to the power of love and the idea that "you" are the one who can provide everything the singer needs, from warmth and forgiveness to endless love and devotion.

Au fost nopti cand isi dorea
There were nights when I wanted her to stay with me
Sa nu plec de langa ea
So that she wouldn't leave me
Au fost vremuri cand uitam
There were times when I forgot
Tot ce-i promiteam
Everything I promised her
Au fost zile-n viata mea
There were days in my life
Cand vroiam altceva
When I wanted something else
Dar acum stiu ca doar ea
But now I know that only she
E dragostea mea
Is my love
Cine poate sa imi dea
Who can give me
Primavara dupa iarna grea
Spring after a harsh winter
Cine nu-mi spune niciodata nu
Who never says no to me
E atat de simplu, doar tu
It's so simple, just you
Au fost nopti cand astepta
There were nights when she waited
Pana-n zori sa vin la ea
Until dawn for me to come to her
Au fost vremuri cand plangea
There were times when she cried
Din cauza mea
Because of me
Au fost zile-n viata mea
There were days in my life

When I wanted something else

Who can forgive me when I make mistakes
Cine poate sa fie o viata asa
Who can live a life like this

Anul trecut a fost la Deva concert Voltaj,a fost bestial. La inceputul concertului a spus Calin ca vrea sa plecam acasa ragusiti. A doua zi l-am vazut,era cazat la hotel Davos,langa blocul meu. M-am dus la el si l-am rugat sa facem o poza,a sarit imediat din masina sa ne pozam,si i-am spus 'ai avut dreptate,am plecat ragusita'
Am cantat si am urlat cum nu am facut-o la vreun concert ! 🤩
