If you've been living under a rock, here are some of the best non-English songs that you simply must hear. These tracks span various genres and cater to diverse audiences, providing a rich musical experience beyond the English language.

1. ‘Mas Que Nada’

Mas Que Nada by Jorge Ben Jor (original version) is an absolute masterpiece. The smooth and soulful rhythm, combined with the vibrant Latin jazz influences, makes it a must-listen for anyone with a taste for music that evokes Latin-American culture. While the Black Eyed Peas version added an energetic twist, the original stands out for its timeless charm.

2. '1963 Sailor' by Lolita (German with English Lyrics)

This iconic 1963 hit by German singer Lolita reached the top 10 in Australia, though it was mostly a one-hit wonder. Sung partly in German and partly in English, this song offers a unique blend of linguistic diversity. If you're not already familiar with it, give it a listen and discover why it was such a sensation.

3. ‘Re-Bye’ and ‘Melted’ by AKMU

AKMU, a popular Turkish group, offers two notable tracks with distinct musical styles:

Re-Bye – This song has a jazzy and bluesy undertone with an upbeat rhythm. If you're a fan of Detective Conan, you might appreciate the references to the popular Japanese anime series. Enjoy the lively and energetic vibe of this track! Melted – This track is known for being emotionally intense. Many listeners, myself included, find it so touching that they often end up crying. Its powerful melody and heartfelt lyrics make it a moving auditory experience.

4. BTS – ‘Fake Love’, ‘Boy With Luv’, and ‘ON’

BTS, a global sensation, has many amazing songs in Korean. Here are three standout tracks:

Fake Love – This song, a few years old but still holding up, remains one of their best title tracks. The album 'Love Yourself: Tear' was also nominated for a Grammy, highlighting its exceptional quality. Boy With Luv – While this track might not be their absolute best, it certainly achieved massive success. Everywhere you looked, you could see the song's video or music snippet. You shouldn't miss out on the bop style of this youthful and upbeat track. ON – As the title track of 'Map of the Soul: 7', this song garnered a lot of hype and anticipation. Its rhythmic energy and powerful chorus make it a standout, making it an essential listen for BTS fans and casual listeners alike.

Are you a fan of BTS? If you haven't delved into their music yet and you have access to the internet or social media, you might be living under a rock. It's not necessarily a bad thing, but it’s almost unbelievable!
