I'm trying to discover more and more music but it's difficult to find anything not English and I bet there are more like me.
So please share the playlist you'd have accumulated over the years here :)

Here's some of mine-

Leningrad (Russian) - Riba
Translates somewhat like 'I've caught many fishes in my life, but you're the fish for me'
Sounds like a great drunken song to me; uncouth and happy go lucky.

Los choclok- Bonita and Caya.
I can't describe these well, they're very laid back and calm.
And speaking of laid back-

Sora mo taberu hazu (Japanese) - cover by Sayonara Ponytail
It's like a surf pop song and it'll make you happy

Well that's all for now folks

Why die only once when you can die a little everyday

Gd morning Compiler!
Well here is 3 out of several ppl I listen to daily.
1. Perfume (Japanese group)
My favorite song by them: [Secret Secret]
They can be described as Techno.
2. Thalia (Mexican singer)
My favorite song by her: [Cerca De Ti]
Her music is pop oriented.
3. Crystal Kay (Black & Korean) race wise.
She grew up in Japan on a US base.
She speaks fluent: Japanese & English.
Her music would be described as R&B w/pop influences.
My favorite Japanese song by her: [Suki].
Hope you check them out.
Each selection has a great discography.

Tomadoi <3
Maiko-san <3
All of her songs are my personal favorite xD
Oborozuki
Kono Shiroi yuki to
Sakura
Nee

Anyway, what does mad mean exactly? Aren't we all a little mad?
Don't we have to be somewhat mad just to go on living, to go on hoping?

Ikr XD she has that gentle voice, and her songs' lyric are good!

My most fav Maiko's song is Catching gold fish (kingyo sukui) and Tomadoi
Her "catching gold fish" song tells a story that I think it's so touching (also sad too XD)

Another songs I forgot to share.. XD
"Yeh Ladki hai Allah" OST Kabhi Khusi Kabhie Gham XD tbh I like this song so much that I downloaded this mp3 and the dance in the movie is one of my fav scenes XD

"烟雨濛濛" by Zhao Wei, OST Love in heavy rain >_< the songs and movie bring nostalgic since it's an old drama series

"Will you marry me?" by Lee Seung Gi :D it's romantic and kinda cute

Kingyo Sukui was so good. It has special place in my heart but I rarely listen to it. Because it's for special occasions.

I wanna listen to her new album. And Ofc, 10th anniversary best album! All of my favorite songs are in it.
Maiko-san's Shunkan is lovely too. I would like to sing it for my girlfriend xP

Tbh in Indonesia Hindi's movies or drama series well known beside Korean's, Japan's and China's. Recently Hindi's drama series that still going in ANTV channel is Anandi, before is Uttaran. So it wouldn't be surprised that there are peps here that loves Hindi's songs XD

*Beside telenovelas from south america Bollywood movies are really popular in our countries indeed,in most muslim countries indian movies like those with Sharukh Khan are well appreciated because people can easily relate to indian society for sharing many way of life aspects and of course for being family friendly.

Kekasih halal - Noura
This song has cheeeful tune

If it's in English should it be "halal lover" or "halal boyfriend"? >_>

Cindai - Siti Nurhaliza

https://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=ZegQQyBVIeM

One of most popular Melayu songs in the 90's. If you like listening to Melayu songs I highly recommend this.

@ Comp : it's the same XD in your link it's the original mp3 song. The link that I shared in previous post is the live version on tv channel, maybe the music a little bit different from the original and there are some lyrics that the singer sang with different tune.

OST Romance in the rain. It tells about lover who had met only for short time, ended with a misery of longing(?)
if you watched the drama series, you know very well this song means Yiping's feeling to Shuhuan XD

@ Unnie: That song is great, I don't understand the language but the guitar and other instruments makes the song really good. It sounds really beats XD I like it!
@ Comp: You are right. The singer voice in Lo Que Construimos indeed is so nice! The song is good, mellow but soft(?) how can I describe that feeling after heard it XD

Here are Indonesian's songs that I like these few days
Jazz - Dari mata https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jieBCHsHg3A
I think this song becomes populer among young people because of its catchy music and lyrics.
Maybe teenage girl will be like 'OMG he falls for me just by looking into my eyes?!'(⊙ヮ⊙) /selfslap -_-"

Adera - Lebih indah https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjY5eqynOlk
While teenage girls like song above, imo older girls prefer this song better.
