Well, I've started to listen to my local songs and non-English foreign music and I have really gotten into them, even though I can't understand the lyrics but at least my it gets my feets tapping. Since English is the language we speak here, I dedicate this thread to non-English music that does not belong to any other threads.
I start of with some local songs that I really like

I'm not sure how "Local" music is relevant. Unless you mean village songs or whatever. :/

Yeah yeah I know they're singing in English but they're actually Polish. They actually can say they're "big in asia" seeing as they're pretty popular in Japan.
