do you listen to other language songs ? I mean not songs in your language

I'm a filipino and most of the songs we play here are either Filipino music or English, I don't listen to such songs aside from that. I find it hard to understand to listen at songs which I am not aware what language it was, but I believe I could listen to it as long as it's instrumental!LoL Also, some filipino singers sing good english songs, as most of them compete on international singing competitions and mostly emerge as champions.

hello of course I do listen to songs that are not in the language that i understand.. but anyway I like the sound and music they do own.. I like german and korean and japanese songs because they kinda own very interesting and very different language.. I think that the main thing that makes people listen to music is their background music and sound

My native tongue is English but I listen to a vast amount of music being performed in other languages. Being a lover of opera I have many recordings in Italian, French, German, Russian and Spanish. I have also listened to a great variety of songs and arias in Polish, Swedish, Dutch and numerous other languages over the years. The main criterion for myself is the quality of the music and the performance in general.

yep, i do this all the time. I have listened to stuff in Mandarin as well (i am interested in China), i love latin jazz (and salsa) so i borrow these types of cds all the time from my local library. i also living in canada, love to listen to french tunes on a local radio station. (i am currently only an english speaker)

I listen to Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Latin, German and Italian. Seems like I can't recommend any other language to you Femi. The one thing I can recommend though. Avoid (C)Rap music.

I enjoy Tokyo Hotel which is a great German band.

In South Africa we have songs in Afrikaans,English, Hindi,Sotho,Tamil,Telugu,Urdu,Xhosa and Zulu.There are ofcourse,many different people of various race groups here,like Chinese,Indonesian,German and others and we dont always get to hear their music.The ones I have listed are the most common and can be heard on radio and records every day.!!!LOL!!!

I am currently in Rhodes, in an internet cafe, but most cafes and bars are playing music in Greek! All their songs are Greek and have Greek lyrics, they are catchy and provide a great atmosphere, so think of me in Rhodes responding to discussions on Mylot with Greek music in the background! They have great vocals btw!

I like listening to music in languages other than my native language, which is English, even if I don't know what they are saying. I enjoy Latin Pop, Japanese Enka, Japanese Taiko drums, Opera in Italian, and call me strange, but I enjoy hearing the National Anthems of nations. That's actually one reason I watch the Olympics (in addition to being a sports fan).

I enjoy listening to all kind of music and songs from other countries too. Most of the time I listen to English songs and music. Probably you never hear of Kadazan song before? You should try.

Yes, at times i listen to any music even if I don't understand the lyrics. The tone and the melody is pretty good to hear. I even use them when I meditate. It's pretty cool.

hi, yeh i listen to all the songs bt of my mother tongue.i listen to hindi, english,punajbi,gujrathi.marathi etc.

Hi Femimi. Well, I do listen to songs from other countries. I mean I am a Chinese but I listen to English song, Japanese, Korea, Mandarin song of course and also Malay and Cantonese song. I will listen to songs as long as their melodies are nice. That's what I ask for when I am listening to song. I didn't see Cantonese songs from your words, just I am suggesting this. Haha. Those from Hong Kong are really not bad

yes i do listen music of different languages i only listen to the rythem and the cool music jus ...some relaxation not for language..used in that song..

I love to listen to Japanese music. I also listen to music in Spanish (like Daddy Yankee). I usually just like the beat because I can't understand what they are saying lol.

Aside from listening to music or songs with Filipino or English lyrics, my siblings and I do listen to Chinese and Korean songs. In the much earlier days, we seldom do mainly because we have no other choice but to listen to our local singers or to the American singers. However, with the influx of telenovelas or tv series from different parts of the world like Taiiwan, Korea, and Spain; we do have a broader choice nowadays. We don't only listen to these songs from foreign lands; but we also love to sing along with them. Because of practice and listening to them everyday, somehow we are able to sing along. We also have searched for the English meaning of these songs to understand them better.

I am a Filipino but enjoy listening to songs in English as well as other languages. For instance, since I became a fan of The Corrs and Enya, I now love Irish music. The cadence of the words are very lyrical as well as soothing. I have even memorized two Corrs songs sung in Gaelic from their album "Home" because I found the melodies wonderful. And yes, I know what they mean because I researched about them. It would be embarrassing to be caught singing a foreign song and not being able to at least say what's it all about when asked by someone, right? :) I also appreciate Brazilian music especially those sung by Kevyn Lettau, Astrud Gilberto and the Sergio Mendes band.

Yup, i love to listen to songs that are foreign to me. I listen to artists who use different languages in their albums...like Andrea Boccelli for one, also Josh Groban. I listen to World Music as well. You can try the Narada collection, it's really unique or the Puto Mayo albums. It's great to listen to songs that are in a foreign language relative to my native tongue because it gives me a sense of oneness to the human race. Music indeed is a universal language and listening to it in different tongues, celebrates our humanity and our soul feels more alive.

Yes, I listen to songs in other languages, some of which, I totally do not understand at all. My chinese is really bad but I listen to a whole lot of Mandarin songs. Cantonese is ok too, but lately I've been hooked to listening to Korean songs :) I've a few French songs on my playlist as well, as I find them romantic-sounding.

I do listen to many songs in different tongues... And there are so many.... heheheeh... as long as these have good beats or have romantic sounds in them, it wouldn't matter sometimes the meaning as long as the music is good.. Hehehehe
