Over the summer I went to a Chinese langauge immersion camp. Among other things, what we did was to listen to popular Chinese songs and watch their music videos on Youtube. Some of these songs have grown on me, and now I have them stuck in my head and have begun to really like them, even though many times I still don't know what all the words mean. Do you like any songs in a foreign langauge? If so, how did you run across them?

I like many songs in foreign languages. I often listen to music from around the world, and I find it very interesting. If I discover a great song in another language I sometimes sing along...even though I don't know what I am singing ;-) When I am writing I prefer listening to foreign music. If a band is singing in my own language or in English I can't helping listening to the words and I get distracted so music in another language works better for me. I find music in foreign languages in many ways. Sometimes my friends from other countrĂes recommend a band or a singer and sometimes I just use the search function in Youtube or a similar site.

Hi ThePaintGuru. Me too like some foreign songs. I really don't know what the words mean but I like the melody and the voice of the singer. I think that music have an universal language so no matter in which language it is, if the song is good we will like it.
Have a nice day.
