    Because I resent the cultural hegemony of the English language.

    No sound in this video until 12 seconds in, and that's the way it should be.

    The song of Twarres has to be played in 240, so that you don't have any disturbances. Why? I have no idea.

    I wouldn't call this "real" Swedish, but it's still pretty damn awesome:
    <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/QfU-4Y4_akY?fs=1&amp;hl=sv_SE"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/QfU-4Y4_akY?fs=1&amp;hl=sv_SE" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>

    Also, even if I'm not actually Norwegian:

    I dunno what I should post: Norwegian or Ukrainian/Russian music. Probably the latter, since that's where I was born, and I don't listen to Norwegian music anyway.

    Anyway, Valeriy Syutkin, a rather famous singer. The song is "42 minutes", about Moscow Metro:

    <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Rjz-Jis3rOQ?fs=1&amp;hl=en_GB"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Rjz-Jis3rOQ?fs=1&amp;hl=en_GB" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>

    This one is not a standalone song per se, this is a live-action scene from a 1988 russian cartoon "Treasure Island". The group is (or was, not sure it still exists) called "Grotesque". The song's name is "Chance".

    <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/-n7JOj8G-rk?fs=1&amp;hl=en_GB"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/-n7JOj8G-rk?fs=1&amp;hl=en_GB" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>

    By the way, I found the whole cartoon subbed English (even with rhyming in translated songs!) on Youtube. The cartoon really is brilliant, despite being an obvious kid's show, so if you have 1:45 hours to spare, please, watch it!

    I can shove this both in this and "Who needs a video" ^^


    I have had some problems watching the entire film, but in the end I managed. Let me know if you have the same problem.

    Complaining about English language dominance on an English language forum. Makes me giggle. I suppose the fact that that is even a real situation that exists for me to derive irony from proves the point.

    Having never visited any part of Europe (but desperately wanting to), I've always been curious how anything gets done with the assloads of languages about. I realize most people are multilingual but it makes my poor ignorant American head hurt just thinking about it.

    Anyway, back to the topic, here are some songs I love (I listen to a lot of contemporary a cappella):

    @Yuki - Just basic stuff. I actually can't speak korean, but I usually do "understand" to what they're saying, even with such a poor dictionary. I learned a lot from korean movies, and "random" video chats (I get like hundred of friend requests per week - on the QQ messenger).

    (I also do know a Vietnamese, but just a little bit, and colloquially only. I don't watch vietnamese movies at all, but I've got like 20+ vietnamese neighbors, not counting those 2 vietnamese ex-girlfriends :))

    And how about you, Yuki? Do you speak Korean?

    I used to find singing in English kinda distasteful 'til I heard this song; I think it's not as vowely or something as Italian, which makes me not like it, but the setting of this text is really nice.
