Musical artist

**Monica** "**Moony**" **Bragato** (born 27 September 1980) is an Italian singer. She is best known as the vocalist on [DB Boulevard](/source/DB_Boulevard)'s hit single "[Point of View](/source/Point_of_View_(DB_Boulevard_song))", as well as for her own single "[Dove (I'll Be Loving You)](/source/Dove_(I'll_Be_Loving_You))".

Raised in Venice, Moony was first noticed singing in the Venetian club scene and was asked to provide vocals for a number of songs by DJ and producer [Spiller](/source/Spiller). The first single was "Positive", in 1998, [sampled](/source/Sampling_(music)) "[Physical](/source/Physical_(Olivia_Newton-John_song))", the song of [Olivia Newton-John](/source/Olivia_Newton-John), and the second single with Spiller was "Batucada" (1999). She also featured in the project, Angel Moon, in the song "He's All I Want", released in 1998.

Her first major success was "Point of View" as part of the group [DB Boulevard](/source/DB_Boulevard). That song became popular across the European dance music scene, and entered the [UK Singles Chart](/source/UK_Singles_Chart) at number three.[1] It earned DB Boulevard the distinction of being the first Italian music group to be nominated in the [MTV](/source/MTV) Europe Music Awards.[*[citation needed](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed)*] From there on, she launched her solo career. The first single "[Dove (I'll Be Loving You)](/source/Dove_(I'll_Be_Loving_You))" was a commercial success and entered the UK Singles Chart on 15 June 2002 at No. 9, spending 13 weeks in the top 75.[2] She released her debut album *Lifestories* in 2003.

The follow-up single 'Acrobats' was released on 3 March 2003. This saw moderate success, entering the UK Singles Chart at No. 64, spending just two weeks in the top 75. This was to be her last appearance on the UK Singles Chart.

In June 2006, Moony released "For Your Love", and in July 2008, "I Don't Know Why". In June 2009, she released a second album, *4 Your Love* in Japan, featuring previously released material and some new tracks.
