I'm glad to hear that people other than myself enjoy listening to songs in different languages. For a while there I thought I was the only one. XD.
Some of my favorite things to listen to are Disney songs in different languages or covers of popular songs. The main reason I do this is because I enjoy hearing it in a different language ( obviously ), but I also like to try and figure out how the lyrics are changed from English to the new language. :). Oh also, listening to a Disney song in the native language it's meant to be in is always fun. For example, Beauty and the Beast in French and Frozen in Norwegian.

Amnesia That's basically me and my story with Kpop. Normally I usually like a song on the radio and listen to it, but I searched up the group and everything. I got really into k-pop and recently attended KCon yesterday.

One of my very favourite bands is Kaizers Orchestra, who are Norwegian and sing in Norwegian! Personally, lyrics aren't that important to my overall enjoyment of a piece of music (well, I like it when they sort of... supplement the instrumentation as it were, but I have very little patience for songs that are driven by the lyrics over the instrumentation, if that makes sense) and so I don't see any reason why I'd be less likely to enjoy music in languages I don't understand.

I love J-Pop! One of my favourites is Lamb by Garnidelia, and I'm also into Vocaloid songs.

I love Kaisers Orchestra a lot, and as a Dane I understand some of the Norwegian, but it's not all. I also had a period where I listened to a lot of j-pop. Nowadays I mostly listen to soundtracks, so when there're vocals, it's often in a fictional language, or sometimes japanese (Ghibli soundtrack, ye!) I love it though, the unrecognisable vocals are still music and sounds that sounds pleasing, y know?

I love music in any language. I love all languages! My favorite is probably French, though. Francoise Hardy is just... beautiful. It might be cheating because I understand a little French, but for the most part, it's all just pretty words to me. (:

Someone used
Mihá Ja Gievrra in that scry a dragon based on a song game. It's cute and put me in a really good mood at the time. I also want to second the absolutely fantastic Françoise Hardy (though I speak a bit of French, too). I spend a lot of time listening to shoegaze and Japan seems to be really good at that musical genre. (Kinoko Teikoku, for example, is one of my favorite bands.) I'm also pretty fond of Youn Sun Nah, a Korean jazz singer who sings in several languages. Oh, oh, oh and Marinella, Nana Mouskouri, and Édith Piaf. (Gosh, I could do this all day.)

I have over a dozen languages in my iPod other than English. Some of them are made up or phonetic, but I also have German (and some German with Latin), Spanish, French, Japanese, Korean, Swedish, Finnish and Russian. And that's just what I can think of off the top of my head.
