[Korean lyrics]

Fuck yeah!

100%. My jam is 90s grunge, but anyone who doesn't think Dragostea din tie is an absolute banger doesn't really have a soul.

I wanted to thank you. I was laying in bed depressed as fuck and I saw your comment and remembered how much I used to love that song. I discovered it on YouTube back when I was a kid. I listened to it probably a hundred times back then. I listened twice after seeing your comment. Thanks for reminding me of an actually happy memory. Truly a timeless and beautiful song. The English version isn't bad either.

I'm glad I could bring back a happy memory for you.

I'm sorry to hear that you've been struggling with depression, I know it's different for everyone but I can relate and wouldn't wish that torture on my worst enemy. I hope you're able to find the support that you need, and can break out of that horrible situation.

Please feel free to message me if you need someone to talk to.

You. You have. You have me.
You. You hate. You hate me.

The song is a German pun, a delightful example of German humour.

*Yellow Ledbetter

Legend has it the only person to ever truly understand the lyrics to this song was David Hasselhoff, but he forgot them halfway through eating that cheeseburger.

Everybody talks about the yellow led better but nobody wants to talk about the skin coloured bed wetter.

This was the first song that came to my mind too 😂 Scrolled down to the comments and you made my day. A minute of it anyway.

Fan would be an overstatement. I like to watch it to discover new songs I wouldn’t normally come across.

Over the last few years I've really been getting into Japanese rock and have fallen in love with a hard rock group called BAND-MAID. They do a cool blend of hard rock, metal aesthetics, and pop.

I find myself singing poorly to a lot of their music, but Manners is an especially fun one. A blues driven hard rock song with a lot of push and pull. Awesome vocal performance by the two main vocalists. The bassist MISA is always creative too.

I always get a laugh from Prisencolinensinainciusol by Adriano Celentano. But that's "sorta English" so a language I don't speak is probably J'en ai marre by Alizée.

This song has been in heavy rotation for literally decades on both my "workout" playlist and my "thinking and programming" playlist. 100% true: I have gotten dates with attractive girls because they were intrigued by what I was listening to (this song).

Govinda, Jaya Jaya

Yessss Kula Shaker! I'm so upset I had the chance to see them live exactly once, and I was so drunk (stupidly because of a girl) that I don't remember any of it. Big big life regret. :(

Pacifica is great and have a lot of English language music too.

2

Not exactly yelling or dancing, but I cycle a lot and when Burning by Hitsujibungaku comes on I pedal way harder and will usually beat my personal best for the segment that I'm riding.

It's the outro to season 2 of Oshi no Ko which is a fantastic show by the way.

Engel, by Rammstein.

Erst, wenn die Wolken schlafen geh'n

Kann man uns am Himmel seh'n

Wir haben Angst und sind allein

Gott weiß, ich will kein Engel sein

No idea what any of that means!

French rock song 'jen perlerai au diable' by johnny hallyday.

You can feel it in your bones.

Edit: OK this isnt the kind of dance songs you're looking for.

Although if you want punjabi dance songs like tunak tunak tun, I can recommend a few (although its not a foreign language to me).

This is one of the scenes i saw used a few years back to be mixed with EDM for a different feel. It was pretty good.

checking out somoku, this is so good! the vocal melody and lyrics are oddly familiar but I can't place it, definitely would have remembered this schizoid instrumentation (not an insult I love this shit!) if I had heard this before

listening to the whole album now, great recommendation!

2

This one for sure! I have to turn it up every time it comes around in my playlists. It’s half in French, and I asked my Quebecois friend what he was singing and she wasn’t sure. Makes sense as I just discovered he’s Belgian when I went to get the YouTube link lol.

SAULE - Dusty Men (feat. Charlie Winston)

Lots of K-pop get people who don't understand Korean at all to vibe; there's also famous (infamous?) songs like the remixed Caramelldansen (which is Swedish), Tunak Tunak Tun as you mentioned is a good one too

Personally I... vibe to a lot of songs that don't have any lyrics at all

Or how about ones with fictional lyrics? Such as siromaru + cranky: conflict (OK this might be a bit too niche...)

Everybody sing along now!

MAMA KO
MAMA SA
MAKO MAKO SA
MAMA KO

MAKO MAKO SA
HEY.... SOUL MAKOSSA!

(cue killer horn section)

Manu Dibango my man!

there's a couple Japanese songs that are bangers but the lyrics are incredibly sad just like Japanese people bopped to something like pumped up kids

3

That's really interesting. Thanks for the links!

I first heard the Turkish song I mentioned when I one day found myself in a concert on a trip to turkey. We weren't allowed to take pictures or video but I recorded the audio and the music was so bumping so I audio searched the song.

Emotional Prism by Mikazuki Bigwave, one of the top comments on the YouTube video sums it up perfectly with "I don't know the words but I can feel the funk"

2

Most songs from heilung. I love alfadirhaiti, anoana, and in maidjan krisgaldr is also amazing, othan. Live versions imo are waay better than recorded versions.

Another one from a different band, wardruna, helvegen with aurora is amazing.

2

Lol that music video is epic and the comments on it as well!

Indian Power Rangers kinda goes hard ngl

I’m gonna tell my kids this was Avatar, the Last Airbender

Jaan Pehechaan Ho

Going with this one. I blame Ghost World for starting my obsession with Indian music of all kinds. Started with Bollywood, into traditional sitar music. My playlists now regularly includes music from everywhere that I don't understand a word of. 😅

There's this heavy metal Japanese band named Aldious. Many of their songs are real bangers, like "Ground Angel" and "Yozakura", but there are two particular songs that, as you said, get me dancing and yelling, even if they're more "pop-ish" than the others: "Without You" and "Die for You". They put me in a good mood every time I listen to them 😆.

I've been trying to learn French so maybe it doesn't quite count anymore, but I really enjoy Papaoutai -- both the original Stromae version and this Pentatonix cover that introduced me to it -- as well as various other songs by Stromae.

Anime OP dont usually get me- I kind of see them as their own genre. However Nostalgic Rainfall by Chic0 with Honeyworks is something I listen to every little while.

Also for the young me, growing up in an Modern Orthodox enclave, but completely immersed in NuMetal, Synergia's Khum Uli August had my number. My friend brought back three whole albums from his birthright trip. I still listen to them when I work out. I miss that guy sometimes, too.

1

To be honest, there are a lot of songs that i mightsing along to that i have no clue what the real lyrics are. I was just jamming to some old skool Nevermind earlier today!

Any (shounen) anime opening/ending songs- One piece, Naruto, Fairy Tail, Angel Beats, Noragami. Yu-Gi-Oh (dub) doesn't have any lyrics, but it still goes hard AF even after 15+ years.

Kuschel Song by Schnuffel, it honestly just makes me think about a simpler time in my life when I didn't realize just how much I had laid out before me.

1

I really like the theme song for Dan-Da-Dan.

Naruto/Boruto had some good ones over their runs, too.
