Some modern Australian music has made it to the world like Tame Impala and King Gizzard but there’s a whole heap that hasn’t really. I’d recommend Boo Seeka and Safia.

I'm from the States and love this one:
Metsatöll - oma laulu ei leia ma üles. Excellent rendition of a children's song. Makes you feel like you could deadlift 1000 pounds or challenge a whole army by yourself.

Bestonia, yet again.
I think everyone knows NENA's 99Luftbalons, but my second favorite German song with a title that starts with a number is:
36 Grad by 2Raumwohnumg is just a perfect ode to summer.
French-Canadian here! If you like prog rock, you should check out Harmonium! I recommend their album "Si on avait besoin d'une cinquième saison", here's my favourite song of theirs.
Another classic is Beau Dommage, a folk rock group (with a bit of prog influence). Song recommendation: Le Géant Beaupré
To plug a more contemporary artist, P'tit Belliveau is an Acadian artist from Nova Scotia who does stuff influenced by traditional Acadian folk but with a lot of modern pop and electronic sound. I absolutely love everything he puts out, but check out RRSP/Grosse Pièce. His music videos are always stellar as well.
ANYTHING by The Tragically Hip. Seems that no one outside of Canada has heard of them, and that's such a crime.
God Bobcaygeon is such a good song. I'm not a huge Hip fan (I know, I know, sacrilegious to say as a Canadian) but I'll always bop to Bobcaygeon. It inspires such a feeling of nostalgic melancholy. Makes me want to go hug someone I love or something.

Wow, this sounds right up one of my friend's alley! Thanks!
So many. Unfortunately most of you will miss the lyrics, which are real poetry. Here are a few:
A rosa (1917 song by Pixinguinha, rendition by Marisa Monte in 1991)
Bahia com H (1981, João Gilberto, sang by himself, Caetano, and Gil)
Luiza (1987, Tom Jobim)
I drink.
