Another Polish language song I like.

 

 

I don't even know why I like his songs, they contain really explicit language.

@szarlotka Here's an (almost) acapella version of Dulaman by Choral Scholars, if you're interested :)

 

 

 

And from me:

Esperanto

I listen to pretty much any language in music. Actually, I used to go to random country generators to choose which country's music I would listen to and then find playlists on YouTube to listen too. Or just look for world music playlists and listen to them.

 

To me what's important is the music, not the language. It's the feelings I can feel through the music and not language. Actually I prefer not understanding the lyrics, which people can't understand and find weird. Not understanding the language, I don't get distracted while doing stuff.

I agree with you, I don't have to understand the lyrics to understand the music, feel the music I should say. I grew up living in many different countries where I didn't know the language so basically I got used to listening to the way the music sounded and not what was being said. I also listen to all different types of music, from classical to rock to drum and bass to house to jazz to celtic.

One of my favourite Dutch songs, a tribute to the Netherlands.

@alsjeblieft Chylińska and O.N.A rulez :D 

 

Here's something from me. @szarlotka may find it interesting, perhaps?  :)

 

Not sure about the language. An archaic German dialect, I guess.

That's the German band I like, their songs are in German.

Italian

 

 

Pity the Italian bands I know of,  rarely record in their native language.

 

And here's a classic (this duo was once very popular in Poland, I think, so chances are @godverdomme will remember that song ;)

<sigh> I hate when this happens. Look up Edyta Bartosiewicz - Zegar on YT, if you're curious. 

 

@godverdomme I remember Ewelina Flinta from Idol, but I stopped paying attention after that.

She's got two or three songs that have a nice sound, but other than that, it's hard to say she's had a big career :lol: how many years ago was that :P

 

By the way, I guess you'll recognise this song:

 

 

I didn't even know there was a full length :D I must admit I like the video. Such a cyberpunk vibe.

Never heard that one before, but I like it (especially the song. I don't pay that much attention to videoclips in general) :) Agree with the vibe comment, though.  I like stories (or more broadly, content) that play out either entirely on-line or ones where the "real world" is just a brief moment -in-between. Maybe I should start a thread about content like that? 🤔

That's a great idea :D I'd take part in it for sure :D

This song was in T-Mobile advertisement, if I'm not wrong, but the video is different than the advertisement and it's way better :D

In don't remember if I've shared it already, but in my opinion, this is one of the prettiest songs in Dutch language. Quite sad as well.

Been listening to a lot of Hua Chen Yu lately. He mixes genres and composes most of his songs himself.

I don't remember if I've ever shared it before, but this is a lullaby sung in Turkish language.
