Maya commented by saying he was 'fascinated' by the accordion version of 'BayatД±lar' he had come across on the Internet earlier in 2009 and claimed he had tried to contact the author but failed due to his busy schedule. Both the Office and Edward Maya later confirmed that Mansurov's work was in fact used in the making of 'Stereo Love'. In the video clip, the composer of 'Stereo Love' was indicated as 'anonymous'. In the autumn of 2009, during his stay in Greece, Azerbaijani composer Eldar Mansurov contacted the Romanian Office for Copyright claiming the refrain of 'Stereo Love' was a copy of a tune from his popular 1989 composition ' BayatД±lar'. Lyrically, the song speaks of a passionate love between two people that is now dying, and their struggle to rekindle that flame. The song is most notable for featuring a riff played with an accordion by Maya. It is set in the key of C# minor with a simple chord progression of C#m-A-E-G#m. 'Stereo Love' is set in common time with a moderate tempo of 127 beats per minute. The song won the Top Dance Song Award at the 2011 Billboard Music Awards. The music video was filmed in Mykonos, Greece, as Edward Maya stated in an interview that Greece 'was a place that I fell in love with'. The song and the music video were both included on the compilation NRJ Music Awards 2010. It also became the second best-selling song from Romania after ' Dragostea Din Tei'.

It became a worldwide hit in nightclubs and rose to the top of eleven national music charts and was certified eight-times Platinum in Norway, seven-times Platinum in Sweden, and Gold or higher in ten additional countries. The refrain is from ' BayatД±lar', composed by Azerbaijani musician Eldar Mansurov. ' Stereo Love' is a 2009 song recorded by Romanian DJ Edward Maya with Moldovan-Romanian musician Vika Jigulina, released as their debut single in late 2009 from Maya's album, The Stereo Love Show. 2009 single by Edward Maya and Vika Jigulina
