Haha, that was funny, but I like other kinds of Romanian music a little better.

one melody inspired by gypsies:

But I still definitely think Italian and French are the best overall at singing, especially with more classical songs. You can't really compare with the likes of singers such as Charles Aznavour, Jacques Brel, or Edith Piaf. Pretty much everything I saw here was good, though, especially those Dutch songs.

English is clearly better tahn Spanish for simple songs. Compare the lyrics of these two versions of the same song:
