Question Do you listen to music in other languages?
Do you listen to music in languages that you don't normally speak?
The majority of the music I listen to is in English obviously but I listen to music in Croatian and Japanese too. Just wondering if anyone else does.

I don't know any music I own that isn't in English. I do have a Spanish version of Love Ain't Here Anymore by Take That but I never listen to it.

Yes I love music in different languages. For example I love Danish band Hej Matematik who have done some brillant songs!

Youtube video


Also I love Turkish singer Kenan Doğulu (Turkey's 2007 Eurovision Entry) and he is one of my fave male singers .

Youtube video


I also like Turkish singer Yalın and a few other people as well.

I obviously love Céline Dion who is one of my fave female artists of all time who doesn't need and explanation.

I quite like Chingon. I like a lot of European artists like Mew, Robyn, Oh Land, Lykke Li and so on but they sing in english mostly so I don't count them.
