I like to listen to music that has a great feel to it and in languages I do not speak or understand. That way I can enjoy it without the burden of terrible lyrics. ☺️

I have a few that I listen to a lot:

Amatz by Shanti Dope - Filipino rap

Mundian To Bach Ke by Punjabi MC - upbeat Bollywood style

Life on Mars by Seu Jorge - just him and a guitar

Update: I have created a Spotify playlist with the songs so far. I will continue to update the list as new songs get added. If you find your song on the list but meant a different version please DM me a link to the one you want. Enjoy!

    Seven Seconds by Youssou N’dour and Neneh Cherry (French and English)

    • this was my first foray into “world music” in, like Grade 7.

    Sadeness by Enigma (Latin and French)

    Miserere by Arvo Pärt (Latin)

    The Expanse by Clinton Shorter (Old Norse?)

    Disappointment by Moon (Russian?)

    Also, I lived in Korea when Gangnam Style dropped. It was magical at the outset, but now… well, hyperexposure is a real thing. But, good on Psy for his work.
