There are a lot of operas that I thoroughly enjoy that are largely in Italian that are just incredibly moving. Pavarotti singing Pagliacci is insanely moving, as one example.
French?
- Florina - Va Va Vis
- The Longest Johns - Santiano (only partly in french, but damn bro)
- Cedric Watson - La Vieille Chanson De Mardi Gras
La Vie en Rose - Eddie Piaf
Ievan Polka
Du Hast - Rammstein
I think that's a pretty good spread
some of the ones that spontaneously come to my mind are:
- 99 luftballons
- Ievan polkka
- Cannabis
- Naruto's second opening
Rammstein - Du Hast
The whole genre of City Pop is awesome.
Jane Air, Junk
Rammstein, Moskau
Afterhours, Vedova Bianca (There's an English version that was used in Mr. Robot)
Great thread - I'll throw in a few although I'm late to the party.
Gaspar Nali - Abale Ndikuwuzeni
Anything from the Afro-Cuban All Stars or Buena Vista Social Club albums
Orchestra Baobab - Sey
Mory Kante - Yeke Yeke (Hardfloor mix)
Lexicon Avenue - Here I Am (Rutabaga mix)
Asilos Magdalena by Mars Volta
I like all their stuff, but that’s the only one I can think of that is completely in Spanish
Ederlezi
Cocteau Twins. I'm pretty sure she just gave up using actual words entirely at some point.
Too much kpop and jpop to list, but Kent (swedish) has a lot of good songs: Stanna Hos Mig, 400 Slag
I have an entire playlist for this. But the my favorite ones are

Anything by kælan mikla out of Iceland is good. Definitely Draumaudis/dream dance
Aural Vampire from Japan is a lot of fun too. Hard to pick just one. But kerguelen vortex is a good starting point.
A lot of j-pop
I really like Hippie Hourrah out of Montreal - this song has been on repeat in my house for a while now:

I liked t.A.T.u. 's album with Malchik Gay. I found it as a teen and thought "hot (fake) lesbians" but the music is still really good as I've matured (slightly).
Jamal Kudu
I really like the French national anthem.
Gangnam Style, O Fortuna (Carmina Burana), stuff by Hildegard von Bingen
Ichiko Aoba - Windswept Adan. The whole album is magical.
Rammstein, most of what eluveitie makes and inabakumori makes...
