Manele and chalga are new words to me, misspoptart, so thanks for introducing me to them. The music clips were fun; I listened to them this morning while I was getting dressed for work. That´s about the sexiest thing that happens in my house these days ! Are all Romanian songs about love, sex and beautiful dancing girls? - because that´s how it looks in the Romanian House thread too.

Oddly enough, your first clip reminded me immediately of a song by Amr Diab. Although he is from Iraq, this clip also features a dancing girl, so maybe it´s not too irrelevant to post here. Do you notice a similarity, or am I just imagining it ?
