About the artist behind Thief Chords:
In the Arabic language it is known as raqs sharqi (رقص شرقي; literally "oriental dance") or sometimes raqs baladi (رقص بلدي; literally "national" or "folk" dance). The term "raqs sharqi" may have originated in Egypt. In Greece and the Balkans, belly dance is called tsiftetelli (τσιφτετέλι).
The term belly-dance is a creation of Orientalism, and is first attested in English in 1899, translating French danse du ventre.[1]
