Music that's not in english...

Space_pinapple · 03-27-2008, 04:54 PM

I thought it was about time someone made a thing for foreign music and so, hey presto, I made it

What kind of foreign bands/singers do people like?
I'm quite a fan of Wir Sind Helden, who are German...hence the signature
and Utada Hikaru, who's Japanese...
I always think songs sound more interesting when they aren't in English.
Admittedly I am a language nerd.

Yea, I'm a real language nerd too.

I (obviously! lol) like t.A.T.u., a band from Russia, a LOT! They're my favorite band. With each of their albums, there's a Russian and English counterpart, which is cool since I'm learning Russian and it helps a bit!

Plus, Russian sounds awesome and I usually prefer the Russian versions of their songs over the English counterparts.

I also like the Swedish band Basshunter
