"Melodious Land of Ikelia"
Instrumental; starts relaxing and lovely and pretty, gets misty sad, like something from the past, then at 1:50 the horses suddenly start galloping away! Don't fall off. Oh wait... it ends like you realize you're getting dizzy and you fall on the grass. No harm done.

Khosbayr "Exotic Biyelgee" They must have some kind of desert grassland drugs out there. More little freaky twisty bending movements. I think Mongolian dancers often look like puppets, not real people. I like how in this one each pair gets a chance to dance alone.
