  • love this song so energetic and fun

  • @goddessofmanga YES, love, this song IS indeed available on itunes, (and other places) and thank you so much for asking! ;-) ;-) ;-) It was recorded with my old band, SONA, has always been one of my favorite tunes, and holds a dear place in my heart. Just look up the band "SONA," and it should be on the album called "acousticnakedladyland," entitled, "Gypsy Song!" (pun on Hendrix' album, electric naked lady land...)

    So thrilled this has gotten such lovely views/reviews!

  • @Beltanas Thank you so much for providing that information!! I am a young Wiccan with Gypsy blood, and this song lifts me to my feet, raises my arms, and makes me dance - it has from the first moment I heard it. Thank you, thank you, thank you for recording it!! I hope to hear much more of your lovely music :)

  • my Spanish side of the family were all gypsies until my ancestors moved to Madrid and then my mum moved to England, I wish they had stayed where they were...

  • I went on a dream sojourn with gypsy women, all dressed in flame red dresses. we travelled in lands full of mystery, exuberance and exotic fun. We passed through dangerous dens of vampires, werewolves and demons. it was land of magic, dreams, bohemy,and freedom from all earthly restrictions...Ah!!! I wish I could live there forever..

  • Um...Is this on iTunes? I'll buy it if it is.

  • @goddessofmanga ~ You can go to the musician's webpage to learn more about where to purchase this song. Go to the SHOW info link on this video page and then you can just click on the link to her website from there. Her name is Beltana and she is a lovely lady! I encourage you to make contact with her directly! Glad you liked her music ... I love it too! ~ Terri (aka: EquuSpirit)

  • thats because the gypsies origins are from india...its thought primarily from the punjab, rajasthan and kashmir areas of india

  • Can someone help me! I want to know who is the painter of this flamencas painting or ilustration?

  • Magical

  • I'm an amateur author of short stories, this song inspired me to write a gypsy-centric story. Such a beautiful song.

  • This makes me think of Greece.

  • My my my. I may not be a Gypsy, or anything like that...but I certainly do love the music and the culture behind it. (: Peoples, just chill and enjoy. No use getting in internet conflicts.

  • Comment removed

  • Hi! I've read part of the comments for this video and I have to say that maybe gypsies in other countries gypsies are different but in Romania they are not as depicted in this video, by far. They have degraded to such a state that the country itself suffers because of the gypsies who left Romania for Spain, Italy or France and started committing crimes and doing other shameful acts. I apologize if gypsies from other countries feel offended, but for Romanians they have become a cancer. :-|

  • can anyone send me this?

  • I had a page called Gypsies dreams based on flamingo, Spanish, plus we named our dog Gypsy. My gg grandfather was from portugal to Australia, so something must be in the blood. Thanks so much.

  • Relm from FFVI is an example of a gypsy

  • this song must go on itunes....

  • Gypsies are a country and culture all their own.

  • Beautiful song.

  • For lyrics and more info about the songwriter (Beltana Spellsinger), the song, and links to more of her songs, please visit her at spellsinger dot us Thank you! LOVE to al!

  • can someone tell me what the lyrics are?

  • @KurenaiSensei93

    Hi there! I've just posted the song lyrics to the MORE INFORMATION tab on this video, along with a personal note from Beltana to all of those who have responded to her music. PLEASE SEE THE VIDEO INFORMATION to read her note and for links to her website. Many thanks for your request and cheers from N. CA.! Warmly, Terri (aka: LadyHawk)

  • @EquuSpirit I don't care what these naysayers are all about. This sounds gypsy to me. I love it. Beltana rocks. I'm going to learn this annoy my freinds to death with it!

  • oooo how beautiful and natural

  • so proud of my roma blood.

  • This song makes me think of my favorite gypsy girl Esmeralda, from the hunchback of notre dame, even though she is not a real, girl the thought of her and this song brings me back to that time. Thank you so much for posting

  • Ever since I was little I wished I could be a gypsie, a Roma. I still get laughed at for it, but I don't care.

    The gypsy culture is rich and beautiful, whereas my ethnicity, Caucasian, has little culture. And even though I am not blood Roma, I feel like I should be.

    So I hope the real gypsies don't mind that I have borrowed your culture, lifestyle, and fashion sense. ;) You're getting me through life, you beauties.

  • @PsychofanGal perhaps in a previous life. blessings 4 spreading the love

  • @PsychofanGal Most people probably carry some Roma blood. They just don't know, or refuse to admit it.

  • @PsychofanGal the fuck? sounds like someone's not who they are and is a little ashamed of being who they really are. Man that sounded really ridiculous. Sounds like my ex girlfriend who thought she was SOOo jewish when she was hardly a jew.

  • Opre Rromani, Gitano from Maine USA

  • dear music friend, tell me why the Gypsies in South America don!t play these beautiful Music, their lost this music culture. Why ?

  • Mt great great grandma was half native american and the man she had a child with was beilived to be gyspsy

  • I am now a gypsy after years of working tword my goal,this song is my favorite to twirl and dance and sing too,thank you for making this video it is perfect

  • Can u post the lyrics,please,but i love the video,great work !!! :)

  • Beautiful music!!! I'M hungarian gypsy-rumungro!!!

  • Beautiful... Actually just found out today that I'm 1/4 roma, which explains quite a bit about my skin tone, features, and family history (or lackthereof) My grandmother was Czechoslovakian Roma, and my grandfather was Yugoslavian Roma. Quite excited to find more out about my culture. I know I'm only 1/4, but that's more of me than anything else...

  • To rengro5 lol Antonio Banderas is from a Spanish country called Spain

  • Beautiful just what I needed:))

  • 4:17 So Beautiful.

  • The Roma made a lot of music in this kind of minor scale that permeates much of their music.

    Did they ever use classic Major scales?

  • proud gypsy here too! :)

  • i used to wish i was gypsy

  • When I was a child, I used to tell my grandmother, "Mam-mam, I'm a gypsy."

    She would say, "No, you're Hungarian and Polish," ...and I would say, "But I want to be a gypsy." And she would laugh.

    I'm a grown man with more years behind me than in front of me, and I still want to be a gypsy!

  • @kejobo then what are you waiting for!!! there's no time like the living and life is too short for regrets hahahaha "dance with use on a gypsy path, sing use to sleep with your gypsy laugh, tell use a tale and ride on the wind, come and dance to the red violin".=)

  • @kejobo that's very sweet of you, you have a big heart !!

  • @kejobo you should have been stolen as a child then. 

  • @kejobo im a gypsy wanna-be also :( but im just a little croation/bosnian/balkan/russia­n/german/american girl. :/ oh well atleast i can still dance :)

  • @kejobo

    my friend says

    to be a Gipsy it is a state of mind

    I am proud of the freedom of my soul

  • @kejobo Then be a gypsy at heart (:

  • @kejobo Man, it not easy to be a gypsy, unless you're an artist gypsy. If not, you probably would live in poverty

  • @kejobo As my mother always said: "B proud of what you are."

    ... Well, in my case I would tell u: "B happy u know what you are." I mean, seriously! I'm French, Jewish, Spanish, American-Indian and I don't know what the hell else, and I'm like: "MAN, DIS IS SO CONFOUSING!!! DX"

    ... But yeah, there's a point in our childhood when we wanna b gypsies (me included =P).

  • @kejobo haha I can agree with this. Polish and Czech. 18 going on 19 and I still want to be a gypsy. My mom just rolls her eyes when I say it.

  • @kejobo how are u hungarian and polish? BTW if u r polish u should know that Slovenian countries are actually gypsy's by Slovenian i mean Eastern Europe

  • This is lovely music!

  • The spanish gipsy music is very beautiful.

  • Tigani......de ar munci sau macar sa fie si ei mai civilizati mai ziceam, ma refer la tiganii din Romania! Tzigany (gypsys)

  • fenominal!!!!!!

  • fantastic!!!!!!

  • YEEEEES !!! trop bien !

  • no words to describe!

  • Sweet.

  • My beautiful people, my beautiful culture. To those who think Romani culture is limited the culture and styles seen in parts of eastern Europe you are seeing only one piece of the puzzle. We came from India, there are still 2 million of us there and as the song refers - the sitar is the instrument there. As we spread we adopted Persian, and Russian elements. In Turkey we belly dance and in Spain we created Flamenco. Every where Gypsy culture evolves to reflect new places and experiences.

  • Thank you so much for your insightful words and for sharing your knowledge of the expansion and adaptation of the Gypsy culture to various parts of the world. I really enjoyed reading it, and hearing your perspective on the subject as well. Your artwork is amazing too ... just took a little jaunt over to your site, and will be forwarding the link on to other interested friends I know would appreciate it as well. Cheers from N. California! Best regards, Terri

  • Thank you Terri, I am very proud of the fact that we are the only ethnic group where almost all of the very famous among us are artists and entertainers (mostly musicians and dancers). Charlie Chaplin is probably the most famous Gypsy of all although few people are aware of his ancestry.

    Thank you for posting this beautiful video. I love it. BTW I have an exhibition coming up in LA, will let you know when it is on, Tony

  • isnt Antonio Banderas rom too?

  • @artistjoh In a way, you're all bringing different cultures of the world to one another, hopefully making us closer. Yours is one unique culture. :)

  • @octobrefilms

    Many people are suspicious of traveling families who love freedom and independence and being unique. Often the results have been very sad. I think it is why there is such passion and soul in our dance and music. It is what connects us across time and distance as a people and unites our individual hopes and dreams with the heart of our culture.

    The Romani people are also possibly unique in that no Romani leader has ever declared war on another ethnic group. We prefer to dance.

  • @artistjoh

    Dear artistjoh,

    You're right, and I would like to say thanks for your beautiful rows. Many people don't believe it so unfortunately, you, and they look down onto a racist's manner us, though one of the men better from the other one. I stand proudly in front of the world, and I shout of my throat l, I had that I am Gypsy begot for it, and it is I am left over, and I say thank you for it to a god, that I was born Gypsy.

    A gypsy from Hungary.

    Respect&Piece

  • @artistjoh hahaha we are not from india  , we been there just for 600 years before in egypt and now in europe 600 years ,and that fact is Not make us europeans at all .

    god bless the gypsys and all the other races.can we hawe a choise before we borne what color do we gonna hawe??????????????????????????­???????????????????

  • @artistjoh makes me proud to be an Indian, I've met some gypsies while I was there. Brilliant musicians...love the music and culture my country brings and have expanded to the world :D

  • muy bien !

  • Thank you so much for this video! I love it.

  • amazing!

  • i love this!!

  • I have never seen a more loveable people in my entire life. Truly these are a folk who traveled between the worlds. I love them too.

  • Look.there is nothing to love about them.I'm from Romania and it's full of gypsies.They are only able to still and to do bad things.And music?Youtube search: Florin Salam / Adi Copilu Minune / Copilu de aur. You'll see that it's nothing like this.This,I love but it's not even real gypsy music.

  • yes, u are right. ım from serbıa and we know who are real gypsy.. thıs ıs not real gypsy musıc.. thıs ıs some flamenco mıxıng or somethıng that tryıng to look lıke a gypsy musıc.. but ıts not!

  • @MISSBg1906 only no gypsy deal in certainty

  • You are misinformed friend... Gypsies are nomads and they come from india. And this is gypsy music. The problems with gypsies as of late are caused by social circumstances and represent worst case scenarios.

  • I love Gypsys ! :)

  • Some great images here. Just wondered if you knew who created the dancing women in red that we see at 1:21-1:43? I'm not familiar with art depicting gypsy women or flamenco dancing, but that's what those paintings seemed to be....

  • Great music and images. However, this is not a VIDEO montage. It is a slide show.

  • beautiful

  • Beautiful

  • I simply LOOOOOVE the music! Thank you for puting it here! :D
