It's hard for me to pick just one song in Arabic as I've been listening to Arabic music
for over 10 years. Most of the songs are in the Egyptian dialect (regardless of where the singer's from) which is why I chose to concentrate on that dialect. Arabic: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mbUoonEmjUs Croatian: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvqrEH7Q7Ck I just started listening to Serbian singer, Ceca because I find that catchy tunes make it easier to remember vocabulary.

This is approximately how my dialect* of Norwegian sounds like... this is probably the
only song sung in it which isn't one of those cliché party songs: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lEBtyk5WpLw (*my dialect is a wee bit different but it's hard to tell them apart unless you're from the area.) And this is a live version of my favourite Japanese song: (Rikugo 心の誉れを; not sure if that's the right spelling as I've only seen it in its romanised form.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caXKR96wzlo And one of my favourite German songs: (Farin Urlaub - Sonne) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4QdcHv7ut0 4 persons have voted this message useful | |||

The Korean language sounds gorgeous in this song by Kang San Ae, and the music video is evocative, with gritty scenes from city life.

I listen to so much korean and japanese music so it's impossible to choose.... but anyways these are songs in these languages that i really like
Korean indie: This song is SUPER romantic and sad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbXIEpkqGbk 그게 아니고 by 10cm I suppose the title would be translated to "not that"." people were writing comments on youtube saying I don't understand crap but it made me cry. I could see why. Anyways I love the korean indie genre. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2qWpM_boZA8 アネモネが鳴いた by 大橋トリオ The anemone rang by torio oohashi Japanse jazz/folk/indie. Personally, I love his voice and he's been awesome since his debut. Edited by howtwosavealif3 on 06 November 2012 at 1:13am 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

For French, it would have to be Alcest - Souvenirs d'un autre monde. One of my favourite songs regardless of language.
There isn't a ton of Italian music that I like, but Chiara Civello - Problemi is a very well done pop song, and Colapesce are a good indie/dream-pop band. 1 person has voted this message useful |
