Do you listen to music/songs not in English?

(I think you mean Pierrot, Thelonius Monk.)

I listen to a lot of Japanese music: anime OSTs, video game OSTs, J-rock and visual kei, and on occasion some J-pop. Lately I've been listening to a lot of Miyavi, Gazette, and Psycho le Cemu, who are extremely amusing and Power-Ranger-esque. Only in a good way.

I also listen to French Art rock, like Chrysalide. I speak absolutely no French at all, but they have a very cool sound to their songs. And sometimes it's nice to have lyrics you don't understand. I don't really listen to Spanish music, because I spend too much time translating lyrics in my head rather than listening. I've heard some good German and Norwegian music lately, too.

I like some Melodic Metal groups like Vintersorg and FolkEarth. Rammstein is a must, I love Cowboy Bebop which I guess would be Japanese...Lacuna Coil has some songs in Italian...The Ramones are some weird branch of english, do they count?

Seconding this. I do appreciate good lyrics, but consider them a bonus rather than a necessity.

Oh, and I have a bunch of Japanese music, and a little French music.

I sure do!
Both in my native language and other ones (like Swedish, German, French).
