I love how Northern Germanic languages are being sung:
Swedish lyrics: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2DrY2rnx1m4 Faroese lyrics http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uP_Iee-D4U4 Danish lyrics http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0I1geB7U5VI&ob=av3e Norwegian lyrics www.youtube.com/watch?v=6-8Ee4KhIyQ I also like Finnish and Saami in songs... Finnish example http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7SvxB_NL5cs Saami www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tu8wjuEjE6M I don't usually like how Russian, Belarussian, etc, sounds in songs. Here's an example of a nice song where the harsh sounds of the language ruin it.

That song is in Russian, not Belarusian. I agree that this one sounds ugly. Here's my favourite song in Russian. Much nicer.
I seriously doubt you've heard many songs in Belarusian. Here's one sung by Eurovision winner Rybak :) Edit: OMG the Danish song. Do they have more in Danish? Seems like they mostly sing in English and Faroese. Edited by Serpent on 05 April 2012 at 12:10pm 3 persons have voted this message useful | |||

She is, but she sings in Russian. Pop singers don't generally sing in Belarusian, it's mostly heard in either folk songs or pagan metal songs.

Many Dutch people have a clear disdain for their own language and think it is the most hideous language on earth, yet to be honest I think it sounds nicer and more engaging than German does.

I love the way Dutch sounds, yes. Though I think German also sounds wonderful. 1 person has voted this message useful |
