Sounds great to your ear whilst picking music you listen to? Minus English of course! What have you opened your mind and ears to? 
I just have been listening to Icelandic artist - Ásgeir - on Spotify... most songs were in English but then this beauty in his native tongue comes on and it really strikes a good vibe in my ear. I can't write a title as it's beyond my keyboard capabilities or I'm just clueless 
What are your 'foreign' and delightful music discoveries? Links would be great addition. Thank you. |

French rap is great though don't ask for examples either

"K-pop quite catchy even though I haven’t the slightest clue what they say lol"
It's supposed to be the current thing and trendy right? I tried. I don't think it's for me! |

"I lived in Spain and always like Spanish guitar-type music. Spanish pop not so much."

"Obviously it would have to be Welsh music. Ar hyd y nos by a male Voice choir is blissful.
But to be international it has to be Portuguese Fado music  "
And I have to add Mariachi music now I'm down a rabbit hole |

"When I worked in India I really got into some of the Bollywood music…bought a soundtrack - Om Shanti Om. It’s proper cheesy but it makes you smile…and I loved embracing the culture.
K"
They can be cheesy but also very melodic. Or beautiful rhythm like bhangra inspired music.. On that note.. Panjabi MC |

"Welsh male voice choir. Never mind the fancy foreign stuff!
I am fond of Welsh accent so I'll give this a go too"
Try something like Calon Lân or Myfanwy though headphones when you get a quiet minute or two to just sit there and immerse yourself in the music. |

Myfanwy is a beautiful song. Gwahoddiad is a gorgeous tune too, but there’s many others.
Taff is right - there’s lots of great Welsh language music. The scene is very vibrant and creative.
I like music sung in other languages, from all over the place. Big fan Brazilian music - Portuguese is wonderful. |
