Foreign Language Music
anyone else like and appreciate music from Non-English speaking singers?
Christoph Mae - Ca Fait Mal (French) Yasemin Sannino - Birdenbire (Turkish) Rammstein - Amerika (German) Panjabi MC - Mundian To Bach Ke Bill Savage went over to the (Stu Hart) house and one of the Hart kids was running around with his hair wet. Savage asked why his hair was wet. Stu said, "the little bast--d broke a vase this morning, so I stuck his head in the toilet. Want me to show you again?" |

YES!
I love anything sung in German, I don't know why. I prefer english, to be able to understand the lyrics, because lyrics are important to me, but I still love listening to bands sing in German (and read the translations side by side). Here's some of my favorites... |

Rammstein are one of my favourite bands on Earth and the best live band on Earth, only band I will go and see every single time they tour without question. Won't fill up the thread with their songs tho given they've already been mentioned. I find myself "enjoying" some bad foreign pop songs, possibly because I have no idea what the probably awful lyrics are. "Discovered" quite a few of them through computer games

Dragon Ash (Japanese with the occasional swearing in English)
Also like the Japanese bands Boris and Mad Capsule Markets, who usually sing in Japanese. Julie Fowlis (Scottish Gaelic) Mediaeval Baebes (They sing in Middle English, Medieval Latin, and other languages from different periods) I believe this track is sung in C17th Swedish |

I would slap the taste out of Pintints mouth for mentioning german music and posting german metal but leaving Rammstein out of the post entirely.

Well, that's because I'm not a fan of Rammstein. Why would I be posting videos of a band I'm not a fan of? They are more of an industrial rock band than metal anyway, and I posted Lacrimosa, who are Gothic rock and not metal.

I thought it was "foreign according to the topic creator", in the sense that he wanted suggestions or something.
I listen to English music a lot then. I'll post my suggestions later. I think you guys will like them. |

Does anyone here know Die Prinzen? A German pop-acapella group? They're pretty awesome.
Their biggest hit however, was a b-side. A rock version of one of their songs. |

Can't believe nobody posted this either... wasn't this song a huge internet meme/hit thing a few years back? Well, besides this and maybe one or two others, most of their songs are pretty naff anyway. But this song is really popular in Germany, and pretty much every pub plays it at some point or another so everyone can drunkingly sing along to it.
Except me. I don't know the fucking lyrics. ![]() |

For those who like Rammstein, you might like Eisbrecher if you aren't already familiar with them:
You might also like And One, although they aren't as heavy as Rammstein or Eisbrecher: This song is in English as opposed to German, but it's my favorite And One song: German acts aside, I also like some J Rock as well, here is Mois dix Mois: |

So anyway, I was trying to remember some more songs, but I'll just post these:
Yumiko Kosaka, "Reason." Theme to Tekkaman Blade. Tragedie, "Je Reste Ghetto." Yeah, the opening and some parts (feat Reed) is in English. This is the song that got me into them (From the Ong-Bak soundtrack). Like the rest of their stuff, but I like the harmonies on this one. And can I slip in a bilingual song? Like, literally, not like the above: Yes, another song from an anime. |
