Are there any artists outside the US whom you really like or are getting to like? I have been interested in learning songs in my native language (Polish) for under a month now, and while all I've gotten out of my research is anime tunes, two songs in particular really stand out and have awesome vocals. The artist I discovered was a Polish singer by the name of Janusz Radek. Really super talented guy. I heard a couple of songs on the Polish version of 2.B.A. Master (Pokemon) and he's really good. While the one song I heard I wasn't crazy about Bede Mistzrem one that really stood out was Viridian City. When he hit that high note towards the end of Viridian City, I'm not joking either: I could litterally feel the hair on the back of my neck stand on end! He is definitely one of those artists who sound too good to be performing on an album that's geared towards a young age group. One of these days I'm going to try find some songs of his on YouTube that aren't aimed at little ones. He really blew me away with that performance!
 
Most the bands I like are American, but they're foreign for me since I live in England...
 
Sash!, Texas Faggott, Tetra-Fang and Gackt are my favourite foreign artists. They are German, Finnish and Japanese respectively.

This. More or less.

Most of the artists I like are technically foreign. Not that it matters much in this day and age. Internet and all.

Swedish. They're pretty good.



Interesting.



Also, I should've worded my original post better. I should have said something like in your own country, do you like any artists from other countries or something of that nature. I hate it when I'm not specific enough!

I listen to many foreign artists/bands. My favourites however are the scandinavian songs. Bands that sing in Icelandic, Danish, Suomi, Russian, Norweigian, Faroeise etc, to me they are very powerful sounding, but that maybe because I am Norse Pagan lol
 
I'm surprised nobody has mentioned these guys, probably the best known Dutch band going. And yes, they are still going.



This may be the most controversial video of all time. So much so that many in the US and elsewhere have never seen it. I guess there is something about it that the guardians of the public airwaves found offensive.



Maybe it was the 'dog scene'.



Go figure.
