Do You Listen to Foreign Music?

[boredkid]

I know a song [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZzyMEherLk&translated=1] by Se7en, does that count?

 

[Hithlain]

I listen to French pop artists like Najoua Belyzel and I've been getting into Bollywood music lately for some reason. I mean, Chamma Chamma is such a classic.



They even sampled the song for Moulin Rouge.

Well, since we're counting England as foreign, then I'll point out the Beattles and Queen and the like, but there's more to it than that. I listen to the music of anime, of course, so we can also add to that J-Rock and such. Also, for a more unique entry, I have an album of Chu Ishikawa, who did the music for the Tetsuo horror films.

Mostly a lot of Japanese music. I usually get into bands through anime themes, but lately I've really started liking all the songs from bands like Ikimono Gakari and Stereopony.

[AgDr_ODST]

a little bit but its mainly the (ending and opening) themes of animes that I watch

 

[Teh Ty]

I listen to some Japenese Music, mainly rock and Techno.

 

[RavingLibDem]

I listen to a fairly wide variety of music, from a large amount of countries, but probably the most international I listen to is either greek traditional music, or K'naan, a Somalian Rapper

gotta have me my Hikki!

I also do like Celtic music, particularly one rendition of the Lass of Aughrim that I have been unable to ever find again...

 

[Ziadaine_v1legacy]

We don't exactly have a lot of Rock Aussie bands that don't pre-date the 80's.So 95% of my Library is Foreign.

Since most current popular American music is awful, besides some of the underground hip-hop stuff; yes, often. No J-pop, something strikes me the wrong way about it; like being stuck in a squishy, colorful, pinball machine.

Some notables are: The Avalanches, Bonobo, Kid Loco, Daft Punk, Gojira, The Beatles, The Kinks and tons upon tons of classical music.

 

[VaudevillianVeteran]

Some German, Some French, A few Japanese, Spanish, Swedish, Russian too. Actually a good number of my Itunes is foreign music.

 

[FangShadow]

Daft punk(french), though I mainly listen to J-pop and Jrock almost all the time. Mainly due to the Kamen rider series, though game music is a big influence as well.

 

[Sassafrass]

A bit of J-Pop/J-Rock is all the foreign music I listen to.

 

[skywalkerlion]

Hellz yes, my favorite Artist of all time is David Bowie. All the good music comes from England

 

[inflamessoilwork]

Swedish metal FTW!

 

[SantoUno]

Dude like 90% of my music comes from other countries, European bands dominate the metal scene, mainly in power and melodic death metal.

 

[rainman2203]

Lots o' metal I listen to comes from foreign lands (and by that I mean Scandinavia). Moonsorrow, Eluviete, Dimmu Borgir to name a few. Also tango oddly enough lately- those cats can swing.

 

[equalplatinum]

Yup, I'm Canadian and I listen to American music all the time!
