Her first two albums, ''Mandaryna.com'' and ''Mandarynkowy sen'', released in 2004 and 2005, respectively, were met with commercial success.

Nonetheless, the performed song "Ev'ry Night" became a massive hit and remains arguably her best-known song to date.The songs was written and produced by her longtime producers/writers Harald Reitinger and Uli Fischer who are responsible for 90% of her musical career. ==Career== Throughout her teenage years, Marta took extensive dancing lessons and was part of several dancing groups. In 2000, she became the dancer and choreographer of Ich Troje, then highly popular Polish pop group. She would become the partner of its lead singer, Michał Wiśniewski, and the couple took part in controversial reality show ''Jestem, jaki jestem'', which became a television hit. In 2004, Mandaryna debuted as a singer and had a hit with the song "Here I Go Again", a cover version of a Whitesnake song, produced by Groove Coverage. Later in the summer, her debut album ''Mandaryna.com'' was released, going on to sell well and achieving gold certification in Poland. It was then released in Germany and Austria. In 2005, Mandaryna took part in Sopot Festival, performing live her new song "Ev'ry Night". The performance, which proved her lacking singing abilities, caused nationwide controversy and Mandaryna became the object of a backlash. Nonetheless, "Ev'ry Night" became a massive hit in Poland and the follow-up second album, ''Mandarynkowy sen'', reached number 1 spot in the albums chart in Poland.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Oficjalna lista sprzedaży :: OLIS - Official Retail Sales Chart )〕 The album also featured a cover of Bon Jovi's "You Give Love a Bad Name", which was released as the next single to considerable success. In 2006, Mandaryna released the single "Stay Together" and started recording her third studio album. She also filmed her own short-lived, yet successful TV show ''Let's Dance, czyli zrobię dla was wszystko''.

The release of her third studio album, ''Third Time: Mandaryna4You'', was scheduled to January 2008, but due to a serious conflict between Mandaryna, her manager Katarzyna Kanclerz and music producer Marek Sośnicki, its release was pulled and it now remains unreleased. She founded a short-lived band, 2be3, and recorded a cover of New Kids on the Block's "Step by Step" with them. In 2009, she made a comeback with the album ''AOK''. Although the album failed to chart, the single "Good Dog Bad Dog" earned considerable popularity. In 2010, she appeared as a member of the judging panel on popular TV show ''Hot or Not'' on VIVA Poland. She also announced working on her next studio album, due in early 2011 and initially called ''Sugar Sugar''. The album was not released, but in 2012 Mandaryna came back with a new single, "Bring the Beat". In 2013, the singer announced she has ended her musical career and instead is going to focus on developing her dance school business. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mandaryna」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
