#foreign bands

we all know those bands who don’t sing in english and therefore, their brilliance remains totally unappreciated by the world

I love foreign bands that write English lyrics, because they come up with such unique lines, and I really value that in music. For example: Amaranthe (Swedish): "We spin the world like a pinball machine" "I'm like a satellite transmitting different eras" "I hide, empower our remedy" Dead by April (Swedish): "Promise me to think of us, still bright, still colorful" Volbeat (Danish): "Feel the fire where she walks" "Don't look in her eyes, you might fall and find the love of your life" "I sold my soul way down in the dirt, but I stole it back and forever in debt" "Are the angels on their way? I'm in the dirt" Oomph! (German): "The me inside your second skin" "Don't you know the surgeon's cut is like the fountain of youth?" Scorpions (German): "We eat the night, we drink the time" "Here I am, rock you like a hurricane" "If we'd go again all the way from the start" H.I.M. (Finnish): "Rip out the wings of a butterfly for your soul, my love" Nightwish (Finnish): "Taking us home where dust once was a man" "You believe but what you see?" Delain (Dutch): "Underneath my tongue it hides" "An error in my genesis" One OK Rock (Japanese): "It's a mighty long fall when you thought love was the top" "Shut down the sirens in our heads" And then. AND THEN. There is System of a Down. And NOTHING even comes CLOSE to this shit: "The kombucha mushroom people sitting around all day" "When you lose small mind you free your life" "We're the cruel regulators smoking cigaro cigaro cigar" "Sweet Danny and Lisa they take me away from" Sweet berries ready for two, ghosts are no different than you" "Fighting crime with a partner, Lois Lane, Jimmy Carter, why?" And, of course, "WAKE UP. GRABABRUSHANDPUTALITTLEMAKEUP."
