I'm an Arab but I listen to all kinds of foreign songs : English, French, Spanish, Turkish, Hindi, Italian, Korean. I'm mostly fascinated by Spanish songs because they are slow, without too much background noise and the lyrics are easy to learn. How about you ? Do you listen to songs in other languages ?

It's difficult to find pop songs in German now. When I switch on the radio, I hear nearly only English. Very occasionally there is a Spanish or a French song.

@MALUSE, Here with our cable TV company, we get hundreds of channels to listen to. Different genres and languages. Enough songs and music to please ANYONE.

I never thought about listening to German songs. Maybe I should start listening to them now. My father and sister can speak German.

@marlina I'm not a great fan of music. I'm more interested in the visual arts. I only listen to music when I'm in the kitchen. I come in, switch the radio on and do what I have to do. When I've finished, I switch the radio off.

@august18 Even the instrumental music is great. "A Song of Storm and Fire" from Tsubasa Chronicles, and "Sadame" from X TV, are great instrumental songs from Japan.

@OneOfMany And "The Song" from the OST of "The Song Of The Sea" is also good.

I like songs in Spanish and where I grew up I heard a lot of Hindu or Indian songs always playing around me so I like those too.

@Freelanzer Really? I've been listening to him since I was 15 years old. I know almost all of his songs and always set them as my ringtones.

Enya with a rare Irish Gaelic song 'S Fágaim mo Bhaile, which means 'And I Leave Home'. The song is set to images of Enya's hometown, Gweedore or Gaoth Dobha...

I have not done so until recently and I think I've cheated myself all these years. I was curious about the opening theme song of an old show I started to watch a couple of months ago so I looked it up. After hearing the entire song I began looking around YouTube for other "foreign" music. The song I'm linking to is by a Portuguese singer and it is so beautiful.
Portuguese Music. Dulce Pontes

Indian songs are usually so high-pitched. Arabic songs, from what i listen in Kuwait, were more of soprano tones. hahaha! but i like the Spanish love songs.

I enjoy spanish songs as well! There's something so mesmerizing about the language! I enjoy listening to songs that aren't of my native tounge because it gives me a change to appreciate culture. I also like listening to Portuguese music, you should try it out!
