dr.no was formed by Marcin Orłowski(bass, keyboards, samples) and Michał Orzeł (keyboards, samples) at the end of 1999. People got to know the band thanks to popular youth radio station called “Radiostacja” and it’s music festival Pepsi Faza. Two of the early dr.no tracks “Funky fashion, funky beats” and “70?s” were placed on Pepsi faza compilations. At that time Marcin and Michal cooperated with vocalist Wit Dziki.
In 2003 U-zek, owner of Sissy Secords (BMG sub-label) invites dr.no to take part in his new compilation called “Projekt Si 031” where the band gets the chance to introduce a brand new track “Dziesiatka/ Free me” recorded together with a new vocalist Karolina Kozak. The track is picked to be the first single to promote the whole album. Thanks to that, dr.no shoots the first video. At the same time Karolina joins the band and all three start to work on the debut album with producer Bogdan Kondracki.
In march 2004 dr.no signs a contract with Sony Music Polska, which leads to release of the first single “Light” consisting of radio edit, two remixes and two additional tracks to be found on the debut album later on. Cool video with Karolina falling from the stairs is made by Iza Poniatowska and Real World Productions.
At the end of the year dr.no releases another single “The power of love”, being a cover of Frankie goes to Hollywood’s 1984 hit. The CD includes also two remixes - “The Power of love” and “Zanim”.
At present dr.no focuses on giving concerts and slowly starts to work on new material.

dr.no Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
i don't want to miss you
i just wanna thank you
you're my sweetest journey
For the blue m&m's
for the tomato i've never tasted
for remembering all those small games
for the time you made me learn
and for the whole, long way back home
I don't want to tease you
i don't want to miss you
i just wanna thank you
you're my sweetest journey
For the bounce on the rocks
for the race to the bus
for the time we went up with our eyes shut
for the fights that never hurt
for that smile that couldn't end
and for all those moments i could see you really cared
The lines "I don't want to tease you, I don't want to miss you, I just wanna thank you, you're my sweetest journey" is the chorus of Dr. No's song "Journey". The song is a reminiscence of the past and the person that has been an integral part of Dr. No's life journey. The song's lyrics convey the singer's appreciation and gratitude to that person for being a part of their life's journey.
The second verse states, "For the blue m&m's, for the tomato I've never tasted, for remembering all those small games, for the way you looked at things, for the time you made me learn, and for the whole, long way back home." The verse is a series of small events that seem trivial in the grand scheme of things but were important to the singer, and they feel grateful for the experience. These small moments may not seem important initially, but in hindsight, they were a significant part of the journey.
The third verse goes, "For the bounce on the rocks, for the race to the bus, for the time we went up with our eyes shut, for the fights that never hurt, for that smile that couldn't end, and for all those moments I could see you really cared." This verse is a repetition of the second verse, encapsulating significant events and moments shared between the singer and the person being addressed. The singer feels blessed to have been a part of these moments and appreciates the fact that the other person was there to share it with them.
