<p>i know CC isn't as narrow as other places are, and i know there's a lot of diversity here, so i won't be surprised if people here listen to foreign songs</p>

<p>what's your favorite foreign song? come on, i know you have one or two. japanese anime songs, korean songs (mine), peruvian traditional music with windpipes (my friend likes them a lot lol), british songs (i heard they make the best bands), or french love songs (i actually liked some)</p>

<p>although mine isn't really foreign, it's the song 'so hot' by the wonder girls (don't judge them by their name :P). they're a korean group, and i keep listening to them while studying..</p>

<p>(i can't give a link right? YOUTUBE IT NOW. it's soo addicting)</p>

<li>"Chale Jaise Hawwaein" - Soundtrack to Hindi movie Main Hoon Na. </li>
<li>"Raphael" - by Carla Bruni. French First Lady. </li>
<li>"Stop! Dimentica" - by Tiziano Ferro. Italian Electronica.</li>
</ul>

<p>I listen to Scandinavian metal.</p>

<p>The Finnish folk metal band called Korpiklaani have a few songs in Finnish.</p>

16

<p>I have a couple of French ones I like:</p>

<p>Zaho - "C'est Chelou"
BB Brunes - "Dis Mois"</p>

<p>I also like several Latin artists, like Paulina Rubio and Aleks Syntek, as well as good salsa/merengue bands from the Carribean.</p>

<p>Flamenco is cool, but it gets old after a while.</p>

17

<p>I'm not familiar with foreign music, but I've watched a bunch Spanish/Portuguese language commercials b/c 1. they're better than American commercials and 2. it's fun to test your listening comprehension. Quilmes (Argentine brewery) and Brahma (Brazilian brewery) make funny commercials. Look them up on YouTube.</p>

<p>^ asian sensation</p>

<p>Progressive (prog) rock is a genre that often has long compositional structure, use of eclectic instruments as well as rock ones, and combines classical style and rock melody. Examples: Yes, Genesis, Jethro Tull, King Crimson, ELP, Renaissance, Gong, etc. Listen to some. It's awesome :)</p>
