    Another Dutch band is BlOf of which I like a lot of songs and from time to time I enjoy Andrea Bocelli's music.

    Oh and this one!

    I like this because South Park takes a very funny take on anime theme songs. I think what's best about it is that the lyrics are actually Japanese and not gibberish that resembles Japanese.

    Me haces bien - Jorge Drexler.

    This song is just too beutiful for my heart :') It's a guy telling his couple how good they are to him, but I've dedicated it to friends, family and loved ones in general because it's simply lovely <3

    How about a song that's literally just gibberish, but sounds beautiful? Does the song lose any of its appeal from not being sung in any existing language?

    Many bands I listen to don’t sing in English or don’t always sing in English. I personally appreciate different languages and music from different nations.

    I've been listening to music in German for years (I recommend literally anything by Eisbrecher) but over the last few months I've been really getting into music in Italian, so I'm just going to leave these here, because these are my two songs that I could just listen to on a loop for an hour.

    Korean, all the way for me! Though I do like a bit of Jpop as well, aha. My favourite Kpop group is most definety BTS (they recently won Top Social Artist in the BBMAs, so proud of my bbys <3)

    Blood, Sweat & Tears - BTS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmE9f-TEutc
    This was the song that got me into them when it came out!

    One of my favorite bands Caliban is German and they usually have one song per album that's in German.

    And Stromae also makes some really good music. The lyrics are fantastic once you know what they actually mean :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    I can barely understand lyrics in English and French songs are so hard to understand even though I'm pretty proficient. They just smush all the words together so I don't know what they're saying. Sometimes it's nice to listen to something for the tune and not worry about the words and how they could effect you
