I vaguely like some french music because I'm white, pretentious and have former vaguely bohemian parents.

I like the French singer Yelle:

and I also like a German song called Monsta by Culcha Club which is quite catchy:

Love Yelle who's French, saw her live when she supported Katy Perry and she was fantastic :D. Love Eurovision music too but i tend to get bored of it eventually haha.

Not gunna lie. It's all about Lena Mayer-Landrut. Hot German chick :P but to be fair I only got to like her from eurovision, but I don't normally like eurovision songs much...mainly because they're not in English.

Nope, not at all. Looks like I'll be the boring one that sticks to music that I can actually understand! :P

Toshiko Koshijima is now my future wife along with Avril Lavigne and Alice Glass.

Other Japanese bands and artists I adore include Joe Hisaishi, Hirasawa Susumu, Shiro Sagisu, KOKIA, Ayumi Hamasaki, Utada Hikaru, fripSide, Shocking Lemon, Halcali, Salyu, Tenmon and more recently Curly Giraffe, hoping to check out Meg and Perfume soon as well. Other foreign bands I enjoy include Rammstein, Megaherz, múm, Shakira and Origa.

The whole unknown block is probably Japanese artists, too.

Not a lot really, I'm very much into lyricism and that kinda goes out the window if I can't understand what they're saying.. but every now and then sure if the tune's good enough
