I prefer listening to songs in a language I don't understand, it makes me able to appreciate the sound of the voice, the rhythm and musical quality, without being biased by the content of the lyrics, which are often unimpressive to say the least.
- scns 5y agoWell, i'd suggest listen to songs written by musicians with great lyrical talent ;) Listening to Nas (i call him the black shakespeare) at the moment, start with the first album Illmatic [0]. The other luminary would be Chuck Shuldiner for me, IMO the most complete musician after Bach. Damn, 4_412_591 views! [1]. Whole album [2]. Or Anthony Rother, who needs only one sentence [3] [0] https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL01DA7137241FC16D https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL01DA7137241FC16D [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8256VJ4hkJU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8256VJ4hkJU [2] https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLwbDtBfx5bnPEgadOHQYEb6TyW3ni-6IT https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLwbDtBfx5bnPEgadOHQYE...

- Izkata 5y agoFor anyone who hasn't seen it before, here's a song by an Italian composer made to sound like American English, but since it only uses nonsense even English speakers can get a bit of a feel for what we sound like to others: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-VsmF9m_Nt8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-VsmF9m_Nt8
