Concept
[edit]In order to celebrate his own life, both from on stage and from the perspective of a normal person, Smiley created "Mai Mult De-O Viață" as a musical serial with five chapters in which he practically tells his story beginning with childhood and finishing with his adult years.
Each track of the album represents in fact an episode. After the first four episodes of the series, "Locul Sfințește Omul", "Nu Mai Există Dup-aia", "Purtat De Vânt" and "Mi-aduc Aminte" told the story of the happy childhood, the tumultuous adolescence, the road to success and of the passionate but betrayed love of three of his best friends, "Mai Mult De-O Viață" concludes and shows the face of mature love, crossed by time and drama, but also by passion and destiny. Smiley and wife Gina Pistol conclude the final chapter of the serial by expressing their love which made them a solid unit.[4]
The first chapter of the album was represented by track "Locul Sfințește Omul" which was released on November 25, 2021.[5]
The second chapter of the album was represented by track "Nu Mai Există Dup-aia" which was released on December 10, 2021.[6]
Released episode by episode on Smiley's official YouTube channel, the musical series, composed of 5 episodes built as short films to connect musically and cinematographically the stages of an endless love story, has the script written by Iulian Moga, the direction bears the signature of Kobzzon, the music is composed, produced and recorded in the HaHaHa Production studios, and the project is a co-production of HaHaHa Production and Cat Music.[7][8]
