Tunak Tunak Tun!
Dragostea Din Tei is also up there
Prisencolinensinainciusol
Or
The Hu - Wolf Totem
Beethoven’s 9th
To add a couple more to the classical list: Camille saint-saëns danse macabre, Dvorak’s new world symphony 9, Bach fugue and toccata, and Hiromi spectrum
Just having voice parts does not make something a song. Schubert’s lieder are probably the best known classical songs.
Numa numa song aka Dragostea din tei
Recently, anything by Babymetal. They are fucking boss.
Probably Kingslayer
99 luftbaloon
Baba Yetu - Theme for Civilization IV and also the Lord’s Prayer in Swahili.
Probably several songs from the Katamari series. Hard to pick just one.
Freundeskreis - Esperanto
Damn, I should have gone with this one. I can’t think of many things I associate more with the 2000s than Basshunter. The lyrics of the original Swedish songs are so infinitely better than the English remakes too.
Can’t forget this one either. OG DOTA and IRC chatrooms, what a time to be alive
Krigsgaldr by Heilung. It’s in proto-Germanic if I am not mistaken.
(edit: spelling - my proto-Germanic is a bit rusty)
Japanese: Last regrets (imoutoid’s First regrets remix) (2006)
Russian: Murat Nasyrov - Мальчик хочет в Тамбов (1997)
German: Kraftwerk - Computerwelt (1981)
Italian: Giuseppe Verdi, Mario del Monaco - Esultate! (1887, 1954)
French: Joe Dassin - Et si tu n’existais pas (1975)
Spanish: Celia Cruz - Mi Soncito (1956)
Chinese: Zhōu Xuán - Hua yang de nian hua (1947)After listening to the Letterkenny playlist a few years ago I went on a bit of a French-Canadian folk music kick.
Lisa Leblanc - Aujourd’hui, Ma Vie C’est D’la Marde stands out.
Huelga en General - Los Lobos
