I'll start with this one:
It's on our wedding playlist, he sings that there are no certainties in life and nothing lasts forever but "I believe in you and me".
Who else wants to play?
-
@mrsvdv: what language is that? Beautiful song:)
Mine is an oldie but a goodie. Always gets the wedding reception dance floor going.
-
@CupQuakeWalk: I totally forgot to say that!!
It's Dutch.
-
@CupQuakeWalk: love it! Such a fun video too!!
-
Do I count as an International Bee?!
-
@Cherrybee: Absolutely... British English is for sure it's own language.
-
I don't have favourites but here are some of the saddest ones I've seen. Even if you do not have any idea what they are saying, you will understand the videos.
This one is Chinese. It's called Tong Hua (Fairy Tale) - by Michael Wong.
This one is Korean. It's called Because I'm a Girl - by Kiss
-
Ok, I'll go find a favorite song, but...
So NOT my favorite song, but my favorite video because it cracks me up and DH and I am in it. Lol
Weird story, we were on a date at an I've skating rink and the rapper comes up to us and is like "Will you be in our music video?" So naturally we said yes. We are only in there for a brief second, but fast forward to 2:26, we are on the far left of the group. My legs are also in there a few times skating, My claim to fame! BahahaEta: Technically I don't count as an international bee since I'm American, but can I still play with favorite songs from where I've lived?
-
@Arden: I saw you! And I think you are definitely allowed to play since I'm American and I want to play, too
I lived in South America for a long time, and would say probably 80% of the music I listen to is in Spanish. Here are some of my favorites:
This first one is probably my favorite music video of all time, honest to god I tear up every time I watch it. It just does such a good job of showing the diversity of people and landscapes throughout Latin America. Plus the lyrics are sad and funny and poignant all at the same time. Love!
And I just live this next song/video. I just think it's lovely, and reminds me of all the Carnaval festivities where I used to live.
-
@Arden: Haha, I saw you!
-
yay i love this game! here's my ridic fave:
-
Who doesn't love Les Feulles Mortes (Autumn Leaves).
I also have to add the obligatory Jacques Brel, Ne Me Quitte Pas
-
My European husband broadened my musical horizons, he has introduced me to Stress ( Swiss German/French rap), Zucchero (Italian ballads), Herbert Gronemeyer (German pop, not sure of the spelling) and so many more.
-
@stiletto_mom: sad but beautiful!!!
@Arden: I saw you! What country were you at the time?
@Medianaranja: I wish I understood more Spanish but the videos are so beautiful!
@Imbali: is that Afrikaans? lol!
@Lamariniere: no words, those songs just take me to another place!
@cherrybee: of course you count! To me, everyone who isn't Belgian is international, so..
Thanks for sharing everybody!
-
@mrsvdv: Albania!
-
@Arden: oh wow that must have been interesting!
-
@mrsvdv: haha yip!
-
@mrsvdv: You've sent me into a youtube rabbit hole, haha. Here are a few more favorites. This is a fun thread!!
Fausto Miño - Entiendo
Soda Stereo - Un million de Años Luz
Los Fabulosos Cadillacs - Matador
-

ETA: this was the closest thing to "our language" I could find.
