Starts off in English but really kicks in when it turns Welsh.

Tunak Tunak Tun will forever be a banger.
I still get it stuck in my head every once in a while -- certified ear worm.
Any Song I listen because I don't like songs in my language. I don't know why.
Anything Jam Hsiao works, but I really like his song A Love Song For You. I also found out about a group called 製燥者StoryMaker and I absolutely love their song Sin of Sloth. I have so many different songs, mostly vocaloid and other related software, songs that I like that are in Chinese, Japanese, some in Korean, and even a song in Ukrainian that I like, but I ain't doing a super list of songs. I know about 3 quarters of college worth of Japanese, but I still don't consider it a language I speak.
Ave Maria
September by Mariya Takeuchi.
I like a good amount of Japanese music but that makes my top five songs.

I like most songs by Carla's Dreams (Romanian/Moldovan + Russian). From eurovision, Shum (Ukrainian) and My sister's crown (English+Ukrainian+Czech+Bulgarian) are pretty good. Slavic languages just sound nice in songs.
Also most pop in catalan (eg. La sortida, escriurem, Ara!).
For something rarer check out Pat Boy who sings in Mayan.
This Frederic song was on my feed one day. I had to hunt it down later that week and fortunately it was easy to describe because I found a thread of someone trying to find the same song.
I'm enough of a lyrics person that the language barrier is a pretty big issue when it comes to music but HATRIÐ MUN SIGRA and I si demà no tornara are both undeniable bangers
Well I do speak some Spanish but Del Castillo Rios Misticos is such a banger whether you can understand it or not.
The song Inta Omri is gorgeous, look for a Um Kathoum version.
"Ari Im Sokhag", Serj Tankian (system of a down) and Larisa Ryan, very beautiful Armenian song
Gangnam Style
Kasa no Hone - Anathallo
Pretty much anything by Sigur Ros
The Snake by Lana Lubany
There's a really solid Country Roads cover in the film Whispers of the Heart from studio ghibli
Literally anything by Thievery Corporation, though a lot of their music is in English
Dame veneno by Los Chunguitos.
Olivia Lufkin - Stars shining out
Shchedryk (Ukranian original version of Carol of the Bells) comes to mind. Folk rhymes better with their original tongue in general
