I like to listen to languages I havent heard before, it gives my ear something different to listen to. Here are a few tunes I like in languages I dont understand.
Enjoy Prisoner of Love - Utada Hikaru (Japanese)
In the middle - Jasmine Leong (Chinese)
I for You - Luna Sea(Japanese)
I dont know who the singer is I couldnt find any info on her but I fell in love with the tune, especially with the beginning. This is from a Historical Korean Drama, Yi San.

maybe i should send you a french song?
Sure, it would be fun. I loved listening to Charbonniers de l'enfer(I have no idea how to pronounce it) on Link TV's world music.. I loved their liveliness. :)
I was driving home late one night and happened on a Korean station ... and the song being sung was so beautiful I lost sense of time ... when I got home I called the station ... and asked if they could tell me who sung it and what it was called ... they had no clue ....waaaahhhh ! It was canned programming and no track was kept of times ... But I have never forgotten that music. I looked for it for a long time ...
I used to listen on NPR too, music from around the world.. some were soooo beautiful though I knew jack about what was sung :).
The beauty of listening to such songs is appreciating it strictly for the art of the composition as well the ability of the singer and the musicians.
Moods are set so even if we do not understand the words, we understand the feelings conveyed in the songs, whether of joy or reflection or sorrow...
Thank you, dear sis, for this great selection of songs!
I am sure you'd enjoy to hear my language in a song! lol
Here's one for you, with my fav romanian band!
:). thank you.. that is so soulful and nice on the ear :).
I couldnt agree more... the instrumentals are a nice way of playing "Guess the mood" game.
