Tongue in check, of course.  tongue

Warning - video download requires some bandwidth and maybe some plug-ins.

Actually, its a rather catchy dance tune. Seriously.

Now for the http://www.newgrounds.com/collections/numanuma.html]US parody version - - Feta cheese, indeed.  :band:

Try the original version without subtitles. There also is a great Lego stop action animation version. Finding it is a google exercise for my fellow new Marsians.

Lyrics (for the Romanian speakers):

Ma-ia-hii, Ma-ia-huu, Ma-ia-hoo, Ma-ia-haa
Ma-ia-hii, Ma-ia-huu, Ma-ia-hoo, Ma-ia-haa
Ma-ia-hii, Ma-ia-huu, Ma-ia-hoo, Ma-ia-haa
Ma-ia-hii, Ma-ia-huu, Ma-ia-hoo, Ma-ia-haa

Alo, salut, sunt eu, un haiduc,
Si te rog, iubirea mea, primeste fericirea.
Alo, alo, sunt eu Picasso,
Ti-am dat beep, si sunt voinic,
Dar sa stii nu-ti cer nimic.

Vrei sa pleci dar nu ma, nu ma iei,
Nu ma, nu ma iei,
Nu ma, nu ma, nu ma iei.
Chipul tau si dragostea din tei,
Mi-amintesc de ochii tai.
Vrei sa pleci dar nu ma, nu ma iei,
Nu ma, nu ma iei,
Nu ma, nu ma, nu ma iei.
Chipul tau si dragostea din tei,
Mi-amintesc de ochii tai.

Te sun, sa-ti spun, ce simt acum,
Alo, iubirea mea, sunt eu, fericirea.
Alo, alo, sunt iarasi eu, Picasso,
Ti-am dat beep, si sunt voinic,
Dar sa stii nu-ti cer nimic.

Vrei sa pleci dar nu ma, nu ma iei,
Nu ma, nu ma iei,
Nu ma, nu ma, nu ma iei.
Chipul tau si dragostea din tei,
Mi-amintesc de ochii tai.
Vrei sa pleci dar nu ma, nu ma iei,
Nu ma, nu ma iei,
Nu ma, nu ma, nu ma iei.
Chipul tau si dragostea din tei,
Mi-amintesc de ochii tai.

Ma-ia-hii, Ma-ia-huu, Ma-ia-hoo, Ma-ia-haa
Ma-ia-hii, Ma-ia-huu, Ma-ia-hoo, Ma-ia-haa
Ma-ia-hii, Ma-ia-huu, Ma-ia-hoo, Ma-ia-haa
Ma-ia-hii, Ma-ia-huu, Ma-ia-hoo, Ma-ia-haa

Vrei sa pleci dar nu ma, nu ma iei,
Nu ma, nu ma iei,
Nu ma, nu ma, nu ma iei.
Chipul tau si dragostea din tei,
Mi-amintesc de ochii tai.
Vrei sa pleci dar nu ma, nu ma iei,
Nu ma, nu ma iei,
Nu ma, nu ma, nu ma iei.
Chipul tau si dragostea din tei,
Mi-amintesc de ochii tai.

Basically, techno-pop-dance mix with a fair amount of computerized synthesis to give it that snap-crackle-pop flavor so indicitive of the decline of actual music.

The main theme of the song (translated) is about love for a girl who is leaving, and leaving the guy behind. (nu ma, nu ma iei). But the guy remember's the girl's eyes and the love of a lime/linden tree.
