fnnkybutt

My #1 artist is Cafe Tacuba - I didn't speak Spanish when I first started listening to them, but I've learned since. I listen to several other Spanish language bands. In French, I like Camille; and Albert Pla, who mostly sings in Catalan.


___HeyGFY___

I found it interesting that they had to spell it Tacvba to avoid legal problems. They're number 30 for me.

Pinging in, post-API-standoff. Considering my longtime penchant for diversity/foreign music, this should come as no surprise.

(She still records in French from time to time.) * AKB48 (#64/41), the highest-ranked Jpop act on my list (out of some 220 and likely higher).

mum must have started singing in Icelandic later. I checked out after the first 3 albums, where the songs that did have lyrics were in English.


cassinipanini

some are in English, some are in Icelandic. it's not as common for them as it is for sigur ros but they do it from time to time. in my defense I missed the 'predominantly' in OPs title until literally right now oop 😅

ba_hartman

No, not really. Kraftwerk technically might qualify as the German versions of their songs are the originals, but I usually listen to the English versions, instead. The only other ones that have a significant amount of lyrics in another language besides English are KMFDM (sometimes sing in German but mostly English) and Cocteau Twins (ostensibly, she sings in English but there are lots of random words from other languages). Sigur Ros at 100 is the highest one that doesn't sing in English at all.

I'm Russian and that's my third time appearing under this post, yet I've never heard of Soft Blade. Are they rock band?


refreshyourself2

No, she's a lo-fi electronic artist, with some rock-ish influences. You should check her out! ☺️

100% Santa Salut, complete Spanish rap but I love her flow and rhythm. Other artists have parts other than English quite often: Convolk (Russian), Nosgov (Polish) and Redzed (Czech)

I think there's a beauty to hearing music in languages you have no clue what they're saying


ItzMammad

Well, almost all of them are metal bands lol. Goatmoon's most songs are in Finnish. I'm not sure but I believe Hate Forest is in Ukrainian, never check their lyrics actually. Drudkh is in Ukrainian too (or whatever language they speak in Ukraine, I'm not really aware of it, sorry). Burzum has some Norwegian songs. Peste Noire is French. I guess that's all of them and it makes is 5/50.


Nihil227

Yeah Drudkh is in Ukrainian. He comes from Kharkiv which used to be mostly Russian speaking before the war, but he's always been very nationalistic. I have also Solstafir (icelandic after the first album), Shining and Lifelover (Swedish with the occasional English song).


ItzMammad

Most of my top 50 is actually brutal death and slam from US lol.

I'm learning Korean but only know a little still. My Top 50 consists of mostly Korean, Japanese and Thai Artists. It's easier to say I only have 4 artists in my Top 50 that speak my dominant language: English 33. Eric Clapton 36. Coldplay 37. The Goo Goo Dolls 46. Aqualung

Closest I have to that is Sigur Ros, an Icelandic band with a great sound.

Do Jennifer Lopez (Spanish) and Die Antwoord (Afrikaans) count? I do feel like their songs are a mix between their native language and English
