The whole genre of City Pop is awesome.

Too much kpop and jpop to list, but Kent (swedish) has a lot of good songs: Stanna Hos Mig, 400 Slag
Great thread - I'll throw in a few although I'm late to the party.
Gaspar Nali - Abale Ndikuwuzeni
Anything from the Afro-Cuban All Stars or Buena Vista Social Club albums
Orchestra Baobab - Sey
Mory Kante - Yeke Yeke (Hardfloor mix)
Lexicon Avenue - Here I Am (Rutabaga mix)
There are a lot of operas that I thoroughly enjoy that are largely in Italian that are just incredibly moving. Pavarotti singing Pagliacci is insanely moving, as one example.
Rammstein - all songs 🙂
French?
- Florina - Va Va Vis
- The Longest Johns - Santiano (only partly in french, but damn bro)
- Cedric Watson - La Vieille Chanson De Mardi Gras
Rammstein - Du Hast
La Vie en Rose - Eddie Piaf
Ievan Polka
Du Hast - Rammstein
I think that's a pretty good spread
Love this thread. Here are some of my favs off the top of my head. My music tastes are all over the place.
Omg Dakhabrakha’s baby is one of the most powerful songs I’ve ever heard. The lyrics are in Ukranian but can be vaguely understood from Russian and damn they hurt. You might’ve already seen but here is the English translation
I'm partial to Klingon Opera.
I combine that with some Vogon poetry
Cocteau Twins. I'm pretty sure she just gave up using actual words entirely at some point.
Jane Air, Junk
Rammstein, Moskau
Afterhours, Vedova Bianca (There's an English version that was used in Mr. Robot)
Asilos Magdalena by Mars Volta
I like all their stuff, but that’s the only one I can think of that is completely in Spanish
There's a bunch of hardbass I like that's usually in Russian or some other slavic language Mostly listen to Uamee
Anything by kælan mikla out of Iceland is good. Definitely Draumaudis/dream dance
Aural Vampire from Japan is a lot of fun too. Hard to pick just one. But kerguelen vortex is a good starting point.
Most things by Snow Tha Product - start with 'Butter' or 'No Cap In My Captions'.
Malagueña Salerosa from the Kill Bill soundtrack.
I really like Hippie Hourrah out of Montreal - this song has been on repeat in my house for a while now:

A lot of j-pop
Gangnam Style, O Fortuna (Carmina Burana), stuff by Hildegard von Bingen
