Non-Asian: Introduce your Traditional, Pop, and Modern Music ?

I want to know more than just my own language music, my own countries music.
I want something further, beside English, Hokkien, Cantonese, Mandarin, Japanese, Indonesian.
I want to know something that is non-Asian,
which is European music.

Also please provide the link to the sub lyric.



Thanks

I don't understand what you want. You want European music in different languages, like spanish,etc.??

One beautiful traditional swedish song:



The best translation I could find, but it only translated the first two verses:

Spring winds strong [and fresh], play and whisper the groves around like loving couples.
The currents hurry, finding no rest, until into the sea the cresting wave tumbles.
Beat my heart, resound and hear. The pasture horns‘ chiming among the cliffs dying away.
The Neck playing, sorrows sharing the wake among the mountains and valleys.

Hearts want to break, oh when the last time I heard the voice of love.
The fire in the eyes, the pain of parting, mouth on mouth and beating chest.
The fell stood in green raiments, the thrush trilled and trilled for his bride.
The Neck playing, sorrows sharing the wake among the mountains and valleys.

And the Neck is a water spirit.

And now IMO the best swedish pop song. Translation in the video itself. Slightly sexual content if you read (too) much into it:

This is an modern german song.
It's a lovesong.

that was a hit in Germany...well...kinda...not...but funny nonetheless

How about this Swedish pop song?



My, my, at Waterloo Napoleon did surrender
Oh yeah, and I have met my destiny in quite a similar way
The history book on the shelf
Is always repeating itself

Waterloo - I was defeated, you won the war
Waterloo - Promise to love you for ever more
Waterloo - Couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo - Knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo - Finally facing my Waterloo

My, my, I tried to hold you back but you were stronger
Oh yeah, and now it seems my only chance is giving up the fight
And how could I ever refuse
I feel like I win when I lose

Waterloo - I was defeated, you won the war
Waterloo - Promise to love you for ever more
Waterloo - Couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo - Knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo - Finally facing my Waterloo

So how could I ever refuse
I feel like I win when I lose -

Waterloo - Couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo - Knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo - Finally facing my Waterloo

What about Korean music like K-pop?

Hmmm... I wonder why it's not showing.

Well... I'll just post some songs I like from our current pop, pop/rock and traditional MPB.







(I lived in Portugal for a couple years, and my family is from there, so here is two bands I like from there)

This is a modern remake from the song Gaivota from the Fado singer Amália Rodrigues.

Haha! Yeah, we're pretty proud of that one. We won Eurovision! Honestly I feel like Swedish pop music today is way better than before though. Sad thing is that most people just know Swedish House Mafia. Kind of like Korea being famous for K-pop, when there are so many other and better artists known there. And I don't listen to Swedish pop. Swedish indie though, but that's off topic



And this is a bit old. The year 2000. But dear God, Håkan Hellström is king.
