La Vie en Rose - Eddie Piaf
Ievan Polka
Du Hast - Rammstein
I think that's a pretty good spread
Nearly all songs by Akatsuki Records, Ado, CrazyBeats, Hololive productions, MoeShop and some other japan based Artists.
I really like the French national anthem.
Hijo de la Luna - Mecano
France Gall - Ella, Elle L'a
Pretty much anything from Frontside, but especially their album 'Sprawa jest osobista". I have no idea what those poles are singing about, but you can just taste the thick sarcasm through kick ass guitar riffs.
Most things by Snow Tha Product - start with 'Butter' or 'No Cap In My Captions'.
"Prisencolinensinainciusol" by Adriano Celentano. I don't know if we could really say what language it's in, but I definitely don't speak it.
Olivia Lufkin - Stars shining out
Dame veneno by Los Chunguitos.
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
The entire sound track for FLCL by The Pillows.
When that show was new, I could sing them all. Kinda. I certainly had no idea what the words were, but I listened to them enough that I could fake it lol
Cocteau Twins. I'm pretty sure she just gave up using actual words entirely at some point.
"Ari Im Sokhag", Serj Tankian (system of a down) and Larisa Ryan, very beautiful Armenian song
Rammstein, most of what eluveitie makes and inabakumori makes...
Rammstein
Literally anything by Thievery Corporation, though a lot of their music is in English
Wen Bie by Jackie Cheung
French?
- Florina - Va Va Vis
- The Longest Johns - Santiano (only partly in french, but damn bro)
- Cedric Watson - La Vieille Chanson De Mardi Gras
I have an entire playlist for this. But the my favorite ones are

Malagueña Salerosa from the Kill Bill soundtrack.
Bella Ciao
There's a really solid Country Roads cover in the film Whispers of the Heart from studio ghibli
The Snake by Lana Lubany
Stromae - Papaoutai (I found out it existed because Pentatonix did a cover of it)
That guy's also got some other interesting songs, with quite a bit of social commentary: carmen, Fils de joie, tous les mêmes, Santé
Gangnam Style, O Fortuna (Carmina Burana), stuff by Hildegard von Bingen
I'm enough of a lyrics person that the language barrier is a pretty big issue when it comes to music but HATRIÐ MUN SIGRA and I si demà no tornara are both undeniable bangers
Too much kpop and jpop to list, but Kent (swedish) has a lot of good songs: Stanna Hos Mig, 400 Slag
