Is there a song in a foreign language you like the melody to but didnt know the lyrics?

A lot of songs come to mind, actually.
But if I had to pick just one, it would be MC Solaar's Carpe Diem.
My French is shaky at best, so back when I stumbled upon MC Solaar (maybe it was via Bearshare), I could barely understand the gist of what was said - and even with a much better understanding, many of the "retro" references in this song specifically would have made no sense to me.
But it evoked a weird sense of nostalgia in me - a longing for a time/things, that I had no connection to (so I shouldn't even feel any nostalgia):

PS: If I had to pick something more popular, it would be Plastic Love by Mariya Takeuchi (got recommended by YouTube back when it made its first comeback wave in 2011, I think).

Another classic as a bonus.

Sadly, this one can't be translated, because it's a twist on a German word play:

Same here.

A lot of threads up until some weeks ago felt kinda barren, because there were no or little interactions in the comment sections.

Now things are starting to feel more lively, engaging and interesting, because comments provide additional background and/or counter-arguments - and sometimes just good old stupid fun. :-P
