In Swedish aswell .

More Swedish bands that are quite known, make good music and sing in english are:

The Cardigans
The Ark

Both of them are really worth a try .

Wow~! The perfect thread for me. *_* I love discovering music from different countries. <3

I actually don't like Edyta THAT much. She has a great voice and nice songs, but I liked her earlier personality more... ._. So I share some other Polish songs. ^^

http://youtube.com/watch?v=gW6iMM3Rsvg
Natalia Kukulska: I L O V E this song. And the lyrics are A M A Z I N G (for those who understand Polish). They reflect my own way of thinking well.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=0pc30-KebmA
SiStars: From their second album, which in my opinion is better than their first. MUCH BETTER. No guest-rappers, less tracks... They won the EMAs for "Best Polish Act" twice. I like how the lyrics seem to talk about a woman, but are in fact about music.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=dZQX7USWQXQ
Anna Maria Jopek: With Pat Metheny. I don't know the original tune, just this version (if there's any difference). It's a rather calm song with driving lyrics. (She also recorded an all-English album called "Secret".)

Hopefully you'll like it and enjoy! ^.^

I figured I should post some links to the music I mention so that people don't overlook the artists, because some of their songs are simply great .

Here's some of The Arks' best songs, almost all of their songs are good, but here's some that I found the PVs of:

It Takes a Fool to Remain Sane

Father of a Son (Title explanation: the vocalist is gay)

Let Your Body Decide (a personal favourite)

Robyn
Be Mine!

Who's That Girl (I only found a AMV of it, I don't think it's got a PV)

^^recommendations!!!

I also like Journey....because...man...Steve perry (right?) god he can sing like...just...insane.

i like how swedish/polish/german/others are all so close together...I feel like I know like 5 languages in one (even thought I don't completely know swedish at all yet ).

seriously...Journey...I think it's a bit of an acquired taste if you are not used to that style of music...but his voice just captivates...omg...he's amazing.

Greenday doesn't burn ears. But their fandom burns brains.

I looooved that song. The performance was really cool. It's not like a lot of Vietnamese music I've heard, although I really haven't heard that much. I would love to hear more.

Swedish is like a mix of German and English to me... it's the same family/genre/smth of languages, so it's quite right... As for Polish, it's different family, along with Slovakian, Czech, Russian and few others from Eastern Europe.

I think I should start learning some Swedish through e-mail or something again...

The Latin family, French, German, Swedish, Italian, Spanish (and more~) are all based on Latin, thus often sounding very similar, sharing many words.

German was very popular to speak here during like the 19th century, that left heavy tracks in our language.

We have quite a number of words that's borrowed from English aswell, and they grow in numbers steadily as the English education here in Sweden start really early and is very serious.

A lot of vietnamese songs are covers of other songs, or variants of covers. I honestly don't know which are covers or not because the credits are random a lot of the time. Also, from what I've heard, and I've heard a lot, vietnamese songs are hit or miss to me. I like the modern stuff. The country/traditional stuff is not my favorite type of music. But anyways.. more of her stuff since she's the only person I'm really familiar with...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9uJdfZFUlg0 -Duet, LTQ is popular with ladies...

That should be good. Enjoy.

Don't know Swedish, but I do feel this song has somewhat silly lyrics XD

Speaking of 'the same of your country', I proudly present Blog 27:

hate them or love them, that's how it is.

Uh... Yeah...

Piece of the lyrics:
"I know a bot
her name is anna
anna is her name
she can ban you
ban you so hard

she's cleaning our channel
I have to tell you that, I know a bot

...."
