Music not sung in English

Been wondering, ever heard a really good song that isn't in English? I discovered quite a few. Mostly slavic. Here are some favourites:

1. Kerber - Seobe
2. Cechomor - Mezi Horami
3. Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman - Time to Say Goodbye
4. Bohem - Mare i Kate

 

I listen to a lot of Japanese music, but I also listen to some Russian, French, and occasionally Spanish.

...There are soo many really good songs out there, it's hard to just pick a few.

Escape - Itou Kanako (Japanese)
ЛЮМЕН - Дыши (Russian) ~ This one is a live recording. It's actually sort of creepy. o__o
Au Port (French) - Camille

 

I love discovering new music! Here are some non-English songs that I really love!

Jeroen van der Boom - Jij Bent Zo

I'll think about posting some more songs!

 

I listen to Japanese and Finnish songs too.

Satumaa Tango

Sakura addiction

 

well, I know this one Japanese song that's really good.

Asian Kung Fu Generation- Last Scene

 

**** I hate that song. :p It's not the worst song in existence but it's been played on the Belgian radio so many freaking times that I'm completely tired of hearing it. Didn't think anyone here would know Jeroen Van der Boom though.

I listen to a bunch of songs in other songs than English, listening to one right now actually. Most of these are in Dutch or Japanese but sporadically I play a song in French or German or other languages still.

 

Almost more than half the songs I listen to are in Japanese. My most favourite artists at the moment are Gackt, alice nine, UVERworld, Namie Amuro, Ai Otsuka, exist trace, shiina ringo and ayumi hamasaki.
I'll put links to songs later as well.

 

"The Best Is Yet To Come"
Composed by Rika Muranaka
Performed by Aoife Ní Fhearraigh

Believe its sung in Irish Gaelic?

 

I listen to quite a bit of Japanese screamo like Maximum the Hormone and European rap. It just sounds good and since I can't understand what they're saying I can just focus on the flow rather than the lyrics.

 

Alcest,

Their music is so beautiful to me

Lol, I love that song, I could listen to it all day! Seriously, it hurts my tender heart hearing you talk like that, Styx :(

EDIT: Oh, and I am Dutch, so that would be pretty logical that I know that song :D

 

Haha this topic is funny to me

Majority of the music I listen to is foreign.. it is very rare for me to find a band or singer in English I like.

Mainly I listen to Japanese ~ Utada Hikaru (both English and Japanese) ayaka, High and Mighty Color... etc

I do sometimes listen to Spanish and German​

 

I'm a sucker for japanese songs and spanish songs. <3
though there is this really good song I like (Thats my opinion)

But I'm not sure if it's in french or a different language. X3

I listen to a lot of Japanese music. I also really like Braja (from Fullmetal Alchemist), which is sung in Russian.

 

I myself mostly listen to english songs, but I love listening to many spanish songs...there are really great bands and singers on that are latin...and their voices are better than most american bands that come out(no offense)

I also listen to some japanese music, like YUI, uverworld, Utada, and some others.

 

I've been in love with Japanese musci for many years and have all Utada's songs, but I'm kind of bored with pop and now a rock girl so I don't listen to Japanese much anymore

I'm a big fan of Tokio Hotel.. which is a german band so they're hot​

 

I can't believe I haven't seen any Sigur Ros posted yet.

Rammstein and Movits!
German and Swedish bands!
I could never get into Japanese music, I've tried.

 

what's wrong with the song? Oh... NVM. I don't listen to belgian radio so I think it sounds pretty nice.


Though American, I'm always open to foreign language in songs. Except when we have to sing songs in a foreign language in chorus. Those songs are boring. Especially when you have to sing them everyday for auditions into the all state festival and district festivals.
I'm more interested in foreign current age music.

My favorite so far listening to is Italian and Japanese. and apparently Belgian. I like that song a lot. And the language sounds very nice in song. SOme languages just don't.

also, I have to bring Kingdom Hearts into this. I like listening to the KH2 opening theme in Japanese than English. The japanese one sounds more focused.. and better.
