Do you enjoy music from other languages that you don't understand?

It is said that for a music lover, language is no barrier..music connects deep to the soul. I am one person who values a good lyrics in any song. And to understand the lyrics, you need to understand the language. For most of my life, I have listened to songs where the lyrics made sense to me. But recently, I have started enjoying the Japanese and Korean songs that my elder daughter listens to. I find them very soulful. I do get the emotions of the songs though I don't understand the language. Do you enjoy songs in languages that you don't understand.?

Yes, but not always, sometimes I don't like music also when I don't understand the lyrics of the song. For me if the lyrics are good, music becomes better.

@Sanjeev . Even for me, lyrics is very important. The songs that are loud and noisy are a strict no for me, even if they are in the languages that I understand. I like soulful songs. Even good pops and rock ones that have some good voice or instruments to be appreciated. There are many created with only noise and no quality to offer. My daughter listens to Stray kids, a Korean band. Their music is really good and the voices are really touching. I find their songs soulful despite not knowing the language.

There are times when I watch a movie in a foreign language but with subtitles. So when I listen to some songs played there and I like it I try to download the songs and listen to them too. Music is not meant to be understood all the time, just felt.

Not really as it kinda ignores me but I love a song that is different language but I can't remember the songs name.

I find German music relaxes me even though I don't know what they're singing about.
