    A great song from Sweden - the only song in Swedish at Melodifestivalen (the national final) and KAJ are actually Finnish! They're of a Swedish-speaking minority in Finland.

        The classic answer is La Bamba. Love the song, no idea what the lyrics are.

                                I caught some Icelandic rap the other night on that global radio website and now I need to find it. I caught some Algerian rap - rap again, even though it's usually not my thing - a few months back, too, and it was awesome.

                                    I don't speak Spanish, but when I heard Colores by Ska-P ("Por la libertad es fundamental la diversidad") I was instantly in love. The music is great and the lyrics seemed straight up fire.

                                    Then I translated their songs and now they are my second favourite band, after RATM.

                                    A Chitón - On repression and censorship in the name of security

                                    El Vals del Obrero - The Workers Waltz, on unity of the working class
