Two Spanish songs:
Soda Stereo - Nada Personal
Julio Iglesias - Tú y Yo
And now a question relating to a song, which hopefully no one will mind me asking here.
A song from the band El Cuarteto de Nos was posted at some point in this thread, and in
their song Ya No Sé Que Hacer Conmigo, they sing the following lines:
"Y oigo una voz que dice con razón
vos siempre cambiando ya, no cambiás más."
Now I haven't studied voseo all that much, but from what I've read just now the forms
that are altered still function as normal, so shouldn't the command in the second line
be "no cambiés más"?

I noticed that there aren't so many Greek artists mentioned here, so I thought I'd recommend some.

Most of these are "έντεχνα" that is, light rock with folk influences, and rock ballads. If anyone would like any more suggestions, please let me know!

I took a quick glance at my Last.fm profile and noticed many interesting bands singing in languages other than English. I can't vouch for the understandability of the vocals. In fact I think it might be rather hard to make out words in some cases.
