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 don’t speak French and the soundtrack of the game Clair obscur expedition 33 is all in French and I can’t stop listening to it. So I have no idea about the lyrics but it sounds so pleasant to the ears.

That Russian song that sounds like Joy Division on MDMA. I'm told the lyrics are very depressing but it's absolute fucking fire.

Tons of songs from the Eurovision song contest. I was rocking out to this one from Estonia today: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=htPAhtVgKsI
I still have Sweden's song stuck in my head

flying duck by cherryfilter. I know only enough Korean to pick out a few words here and there, but have never bothered to look it up.

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?
