Is there a song in a foreign language you like the melody to but didnt know the lyrics?
-
For me i’d say vocaloid when i was younger. No clue about now, maybe some russian songs like igorek.

I still have Sweden's song stuck in my head
And just from reading that, It's now playing in my head too

All of Francoise Hardy's album Soleil. Absolutely lovely singing voice.
-
Dragostea Din Tei by O-Zone, though I think I heard it on NicoNico Douga before it became known as the NumaNuma Song.
A banger!

wrote on last edited by [email protected]A lot of songs come to mind, actually.
But if I had to pick just one, it would be MC Solaar's Carpe Diem.
My French is shaky at best, so back when I stumbled upon MC Solaar (maybe it was via Bearshare), I could barely understand the gist of what was said - and even with a much better understanding, many of the "retro" references in this song specifically would have made no sense to me.
But it evoked a weird sense of nostalgia in me - a longing for a time/things, that I had no connection to (so I shouldn't even feel any nostalgia):

PS: If I had to pick something more popular, it would be Plastic Love by Mariya Takeuchi (got recommended by YouTube back when it made its first comeback wave in 2011, I think).

Mundian to Bach Ke by Punjabi MC (and famously remixed with Jay Z)

I love that song
The prettiest song ever about nuclear war.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]Many songs if I like enough I figure out some of the words when looking for the title. Otherwise I remember them then forget them for a while. A couple famous examples I like:
Dschinghis Khan - Moskau, it's a bop, i know the melody but lyrics I only know parts of.
O-Zone - Dragostea Din Tea - this one of course I know front to back but I don't know what a single word means.

Wolf Totem by the Hu.
In fact, their entire discography.
The heavier stuff is great at the gymMy first introduction to them was Yuve Yuve Yu, also a banger.
I got a little hyper fixated on throat singing one week and they popped into my feed. Bike rides and road trips have never been the same.

I know enough Spanish to understand the lyrics now, but loved that song before I knew what it was saying.

The band Creepy Nuts is a Japanese rap(?) group that did the Dandadan opening, but I also really like their opening for Mashle - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLW35YMzELE

If I like a song, I make a deliberate effort to learn the lyrics and what they mean. People wrote those lyrics for a reason.
Or do you just want to dance?

I think they also did the opening and closing for Call of the Night, but of which are also great.

I basically love city pop cus it has great groove, rhythm and usually the few English words in the lyrics reassuring me that it’s usually about love or a metaphor of it.

Polish cow song. The melody itself is from another song, "How long - Lipps, inc" apparently. But both songs do well with that beat.

That's a solid "The entire Caramba" album.
You might've heard (of) Habba Habba Zoot Zoot; well, they made an entire album of "plausible sounding" songs in German, Japanese, Finish, American, Russian, etc. It's really quite hilarious.
