First of all, please ignore the video itself, and notice the song is in Romanian this time. Hailing from Romania, the Blaxy Girls are pop band formed in 2007 by their lead vocalist, who was 16 years old at the time.
You may recognize the strong, lilting voices and delicate instrumentals behind an electric guitar and drums. Only after research did I realize I'd heard them before. Their claim to fame is a song called 'If You Feel My Love,' which was an immediate hit in their home country. Like many European pop bands, they have operated off single songs, rather than albums. Their next most popular piece was the one I recognized- 'Dear Mama.' It was released for Mother's Day 2009 and met success internationally. The song was accompanied by a music video from MTV that shows a story of a rocky relationship between a mother and daughter that ends in tragedy.
If you liked this song, I highly recommend 'Dear Mama' next. Make sure you have a box of tissues near by!
