Anime OP dont usually get me- I kind of see them as their own genre. However Nostalgic Rainfall by Chic0 with Honeyworks is something I listen to every little while.

Also for the young me, growing up in an Modern Orthodox enclave, but completely immersed in NuMetal, Synergia's Khum Uli August had my number. My friend brought back three whole albums from his birthright trip. I still listen to them when I work out. I miss that guy sometimes, too.

"Was hast du Gedacht" by GZUZ. I know there's a ton of german hip hop but there needs to be more and bigger.

Interesting. Looks like I can't view it from Germany

100%. My jam is 90s grunge, but anyone who doesn't think Dragostea din tie is an absolute banger doesn't really have a soul.

You. You have. You have me.
You. You hate. You hate me.

The song is a German pun, a delightful example of German humour.

I wanted to thank you. I was laying in bed depressed as fuck and I saw your comment and remembered how much I used to love that song. I discovered it on YouTube back when I was a kid. I listened to it probably a hundred times back then. I listened twice after seeing your comment. Thanks for reminding me of an actually happy memory. Truly a timeless and beautiful song. The English version isn't bad either.

[–] aMockTie@piefed.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm glad I could bring back a happy memory for you.

I'm sorry to hear that you've been struggling with depression, I know it's different for everyone but I can relate and wouldn't wish that torture on my worst enemy. I hope you're able to find the support that you need, and can break out of that horrible situation.

Please feel free to message me if you need someone to talk to.

[–] daggermoon@lemmy.world 2 points 7 hours ago

Thank you, I appreciate it.

I really like the theme song for Dan-Da-Dan.

Naruto/Boruto had some good ones over their runs, too.

Lumiere from Clair Obscur.

The Pillows entire catalogue.

99 Luftballons.

Rollin' Girls by Wowaka.

Carameldansen

Dragostea Din Tei

Really, tho, if it slaps, it transcends language 🤷‍♂️

It's actually kinda in English. This was made by a Spanish/Italian guy so English speakers could "hear" what English sounds like to a non-speaker. Song still slaps tho

there's a couple Japanese songs that are bangers but the lyrics are incredibly sad just like Japanese people bopped to something like pumped up kids

[–] Jankatarch@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Turkish is my first language and a lot of English songs were exactly that. This feels interesting.

Btw "kemençe" is also the instrument's name if you want to find similar stuff.

Some of my favorites. https://youtu.be/hUdWILxC8sY
https://youtu.be/WDtqZE8hUOs

And "Horon" is also the traditional dance associated with kemençe.
https://youtu.be/L0RaPN4d1iY

That's really interesting. Thanks for the links!

I first heard the Turkish song I mentioned when I one day found myself in a concert on a trip to turkey. We weren't allowed to take pictures or video but I recorded the audio and the music was so bumping so I audio searched the song.

Most songs from heilung. I love alfadirhaiti, anoana, and in maidjan krisgaldr is also amazing, othan. Live versions imo are waay better than recorded versions.

Another one from a different band, wardruna, helvegen with aurora is amazing.

[–] Tempus_Fugit@midwest.social 8 points 2 days ago

Over the last few years I've really been getting into Japanese rock and have fallen in love with a hard rock group called BAND-MAID. They do a cool blend of hard rock, metal aesthetics, and pop.

I find myself singing poorly to a lot of their music, but Manners is an especially fun one. A blues driven hard rock song with a lot of push and pull. Awesome vocal performance by the two main vocalists. The bassist MISA is always creative too.
