We like Elena Gheorghe, she has a great voice, and it's not the first time we choose to feature one of her songs in this column. This time, she does a featuring with a young, less known Romanian singer, by stage name JJ (in picture, left).

The song, called Pana dimineata (translated as until dawn), seems to be targeting high school students, also judging by its video. But it is a catchy beat, a lift – me – up song, which you might hear during the New Year's party in Romania – if you'll spend it here. It definitely calls for some dancing.

The song is below for you to listen, and the lyrics if you want to practice your Romanian.

Si cand esti gelos sau minti frumos/ Esti totul pentru mine
Si cand esti plecat, singura-n pat/ Mi-e gandul doar la tine

Viata e scurta sa stii/ Deschide larg ochii
Du-ma unde vrei si-acolo/Iubeste-ma baby

Noaptea cade peste noi/ Tu saruti umeri goi
Pana dimineata/ Pana, pana dimineata

Noptile se-mpart la doi/Facem numai ce vrem noi
Pana dimineata/ Pana, pana dimineata

Si nu vreau sa-ti cer/ Luna de pe cer
Si vreau doar sa fiu cu tine/ M-ai luminat
C-un zambet cald/ Face cat o mie de cuvinte

Viata e scurta sa stii/ Deschide larg ochii
Du-ma unde vrei si-acolo/Iubeste-ma baby

Noaptea cade peste noi/ Tu ma saruti cum vrem noi
Pana dimineata/ Pana, pana dimineata

Noptile se-mpart la doi/ Facem numai ce vrem noi
Pana dimineata/ Pana, pana dimineata

Atunci cand soarele va rasari/ Noi inca ne vom iubi
La fel in fiecare zi/ Atunci cand soarele va rasari
Noi inca ne vom iubi/ La fel in fiecare zi

Masina neagra, esarfa, rezervorul e plin/ Rosu doar pe talpa, unde mergem nu stim
Eo eo eo eo, dupa noi cum fugim/ Dupa ploi sub un timp ne iubim, ne iubim

Unde, unde mergem nici macar nu platim/ Uite uite uite cat de bine ne stim
Super wind ca noi nici nu vorbim/ Si ne sincronizam pana dimineata

Noaptea cade peste noi/ Tu ma saruti cum vrem noi
Pana dimineata/ Pana, pana dimineata

Noptile se-mpart la doi/ Facem numai ce vrem noi
Pana dimineata/ Pana, pana dimineata

Atunci cand soarele va rasari/ Noi inca ne vom iubi
La fel in fiecare zi/ Atunci cand soarele va rasari
Noi inca ne vom iubi/ La fel in fiecare zi.
