I've been listening to Look Mum No Computer. Like there are some in here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLluPQLh1xzlKkAfB-joSEaccwQBr6OSi1

Colin Furze tends to play an interesting slice of different bands with sources in each upload on YT.

Sorry, these are in English:

• Khe Sanh by Cold Chisel
• Great Southern Land by Icehouse
• Sounds of Then (This is Australia) by Gangajang

A shortlist of some of my favourite Australian music

• Flume - never be like you
• Rufus Du Sol - Innerbloom
• The Presets - My People
• The Names and Famous - The Sun (not * Australian, but still Oceania)
• Tame impala - Let it Happen
• King gizzard and the lizard wizard - Robot Stop
• Nick Cave and the bad seeds - red right hand
• Wolfmother - Woman
• Violent Soho - covered in chrome

Too much good music to name, but this is a solid start

Canada surprisingly has music that Americans rarely know about but are quite famous up here:

Kim Mitchell - Patio Lanterns

The Tragically Hip - Pretty much any of their songs, but Ahead by a Century and 50 Mission Cap are my favorites

54-40 - One Day In Your Life

Soda Stereo was the pinnacle of Argentine rock. Their farewell tour concert sold out and was televised. "De musica ligera" was their most popular song, and the last song they played https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OX-us7PEfkc

Germany mostly shines with Rap and Pop music.

Try out these and let Spotify recommend you similar stuff if you like it

• Mine - MEIN HERZ
• Danger Dan - Das ist alles von der Kunstfreiheit gedeckt
• Antilopen Gang - Pizza
• Alligatoah - Willst du
• Peter Fox - Alles Neu
• Samy Deluxe - Weck mich auf
• Grossstadtgeflüster - Fickt-Euch-Allee
• Deichkind - So ne Musik
• AnnenMayKantereit - Oft gefragt
• Herbert Grönemeyer - Bochum

The Rubber Bandits, Horse Outside

I'm from Belgium.

I suppose Technotronic's Pump Up the Jam is now more well-known again as a running joke in Philomene Cunk's show. In a similar vein, there's The Immortals' Techno Syndrome, better known as "Mortal Kombat". But these are both English, of course.

As for songs in our local languages, on the Dutch side Gorki's Mia always ranks highly (but I'm not sure how much you get from it without understanding the lyrics) while Laïs' rendition of 't Smidje has some weird international appeal. On the French side there's several strong hits like the entire discography of Stromae, Plastic Betrand's Ça Plane Pour Moi, or Eurovision-winning Sandra Kim's J'aime La Vie.

Jaume Sisa - Qualsevol nit pot sortir el Sol
Sopa de Cabra - L'Empordà

These two will get any Catalan singing along instantly

I want to also add La Flaca from Jarabe de palo.

גיא מזיג - כמה אני אוהב אותך

The Grapes of Wrath - I am Here

They were a couple hundred km's away from me, but the size of my country makes that reasonably close.

周杰倫(Jay Chou) - 青花瓷 (Blue and White Porcelain). YouTube link

So Jay Chou (Taiwanese actually...) was an absolute phenomenon in mainland China when I was growing up. Just about all of his songs are good & have mass appeal, but specifically I think this song was something I've heard just about everywhere and anywhere (including from a street performer when I visited again a few months ago!) so I'm nominating it as a must-listen

Also don't worry too much about the lyrics; Jay Chou is known for rapping a lot & I couldn't understand half of his lyrics when growing up...

Münchner Freiheit - Ohne dich

Babymetal might be something you could look into. Japanese band with some English.

I don't speak Japanese, but enjoy listening to them.

I Don't know if this will be on spotify but:

Lila Downs + Café Tacvba, perro negro

https://youtu.be/rVJFiXCYeoE

Some really under the radar bangers below:

Hit me baby one more time - Britney Spears

Happy - Pharell

Baby - Justin Bieber

Baby Shark

Shake it Off - Taylor Swift

I'd tell you, but they'd be American bands you've never heard of before.
