Pretty partial to Japanese pop myself. I'm learning Japanese partially so i can understand the songs. Yoasobi's songs are a good general recommendation, I would recommend Yoru ni Kakeru, Gunjou, and Seventeen.

The entirety of NieR and NieR Automata's vocal tracks. Most of them are actually just gibberish.
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

Cocteau Twins. I'm pretty sure she just gave up using actual words entirely at some point.
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.
The whole genre of City Pop is awesome.
some of the ones that spontaneously come to my mind are:
- 99 luftballons
- Ievan polkka
- Cannabis
- Naruto's second opening
Ederlezi
I have an entire playlist for this. But the my favorite ones are

Rammstein - Du Hast
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
Too much kpop and jpop to list, but Kent (swedish) has a lot of good songs: Stanna Hos Mig, 400 Slag
La Vie en Rose - Eddie Piaf
Ievan Polka
Du Hast - Rammstein
I think that's a pretty good spread
Rammstein - all songs 🙂

Most things by Snow Tha Product - start with 'Butter' or 'No Cap In My Captions'.
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.
Ichiko Aoba - Windswept Adan. The whole album is magical.
I would normally just go with an Infected Mushroom tune (there are a few in Hebrew like Lost in Space which also has Arabic at the end), but I challenged myself to think beyond my regular playlist, and Disko Partizani was the first that came to mind (partly in English, but otherwise in Romanian, I'm pretty sure).. Great tune and it's been ages since I gave it a listen, so thanks for the reminder!
I'm sure there are more examples, but my mind is drawing a blank right now.. This is going to bug me all evening lol
There's a bunch of hardbass I like that's usually in Russian or some other slavic language Mostly listen to Uamee
Wen Bie by Jackie Cheung
A lot of j-pop
Jamal Kudu
Mostly songs from C. Tangana , especially the songs from his "concert" on TinyDesk.
Rammstein, most of what eluveitie makes and inabakumori makes...
I really like Hippie Hourrah out of Montreal - this song has been on repeat in my house for a while now:
