Numa Numa is an
Internet phenomenon based on a video by American
vlogger Gary Brolsma made after the song "
Dragostea din tei" as performed by
O-Zone. Brolsma's video, entitled
Numa Numa Song, was released on December 6, 2004 on the website
Newgrounds.com and shows Brolsma
lip-synching the hit song and lively
gesticulating on it. The video title is derived from the
Romanian words "
nu ma nu ma" that occur in the refrain of O-Zone's song. It was the first Numa Numa-themed video to gain widespread attention. Less than three months after the
release, it had been viewed more than two million times on the debut website alone.
