Erica, thank you so much for your interest, I am glad somebody enjoy this thread

I add from time to time some songs to my International videos list on Youtube but not all what I like - it would be too big list.


Today I am in mood of Greece, I listen now new album (Welcome to Greece) of greek singer Maraveyas. And album of band Alximistes.
Maraveyas is ska, Alximistes is folk-rock.

Maraveyas - MySpace
Alximistes - MySpace


Here some videos of Maraveyas...










Alximistes

One of my favourite german songs... Lyrics are sad but this is for me the best song of this band.



Mein Mund, er findet einen Weg
Zu deinem bleichen Munde
So gehen wir beide nun zugrund
In dieser wehen Stunde

Modena City Ramblers started off sounding exactly like an Iowa barn dance song! (Yes, there are still barn dances in Iowa.)

The song by Argine. Mmm...well, you know how I feel about Italian men! (I'm joking...I really just like that one sculpure!) The singer has a lovely, warm voice. Very pleasant to listen to. It's a beautiful, simple, restful song. I like the integration of strings in the piece. I didn't care so much for the opera singing or the drums at 2:40, but up until that point the song really drew me in. Thanks for sharing it, Petula!

I just found band Orphaned Land. It's mostly english but they have also some songs in hebrew. Influenced by oriental music.
This Orphaned Land Norra El Norra sounded very folksy, then metal, and I liked the mixture of traditional sounds. I felt the chords in the background during the metal portions tracked too cosely to the melody, making the song sound too simple or straightforward to me. I did like the lilting, jazzy piano at 3:00, though.

This video was funny and disturbing! Well-acted. I wish I could understand the lyrics, though the video makes the point of the song very clear! It made me laugh...and feel thankful I don't have a paper bag over my head.
