I'm so amused that you seperated these two into their separate countries. And I am constantly forgetting that Lostprophets are Welsh, though they do live in the States more than sunny Wales lol.

Uhm...hmm what can be considered foreign that I listen to...well there's the J-Pop which I listen to (KAT-TUN, NEWS, Arashi mainly) And then the American stuff I think too...Ok Go, The Subways, are Goo Goo Dolls American? The Rocket Summer and All American Rejects too =D And I think Bare Naked Ladies are Canadian maybe? I'm probably so wrong with those bands nationalities. I just know I wouldn't have heard about them if not for a friend I have in Chicago because they are popular here, but not hugely popular. Like Fall Out Boy are American, but they are so big in the UK that I would hardly count it as being all that foreign.

I want to say Franz Ferdinand because they are Scottish...I don't know if it counts. Technically they are foreign as they hate me and my englishness.

A lot of the music I listen to, I honestly don't know if it's British or American. So generally if it's in English I'll only be able to tell if there's a lot of English slang in it (These are usually the crap oh god kill me now I don't want to admit I'm from the same country as you ones) or a lot of Americanisations in it.

Oh! I forgot Abba! Swedish! It counts!

Lost - Italy Daft Punk - France Big Bang, F.T. Island, DBSK, Battle, MC the Max,etc. - South Korea Wolf Mother, Sick Puppies - Australia JVKV, Fahrenheit, etc. - Taiwan An Cafe, Kagrra, Plastic Tree, etc. - Japan Some Chinese artists - forgot their names....^^; Snow Patrol, etc. - UK

etc, etc.

This one you guys have never heard of: Pokemons Are Rare And Hardcore from Sweden. Like, nobody knows them but they make good music in my opinion. :) Other than that: Hopes Die Last - Italy and Avenues & Silhouettes - Spain. The rest is just American/British. :)

Buono!, SID (J-Pop/Rock) and Die Toten Hosen (German Rock) are my favourites : ) Unless America counts as foreign :P -English- but in that case we'd be here for a while.

Technically I only listen to foreign music - mostly from the UK, USA, and Canada, but many of my favourite bands are more... exotic, e.g.: Kent (best band ever to grace the surface of the Earth), the Shout Out Louds, Jens Lekman, Anna Ternheim from Sweden, Sigur Ros and múm, from Iceland, Mono from Japan, Kaizers Orchestra from Norway, Efterklang from Denmark... and many more! I'd love to find some good Russian indie music actually - any recommendations? D:

Weird, after looking over my library, it seems most of my foreign bands hail from northern Europe xD; Ah well

Svartsot - Denmark Týr - Faroe Islands Beyond Twilight - Finland Hevein - Finland Stratovarius - Finland Turisas - Finland Dir en Grey - Japan Girugamesh - Japan Rentrer en Soi - Japan Communic - Norway Keldian - Norway Seether - South Africa

Dir en grey.

My favorite now and forever ---> Heaven Shall Burn. They're just amazing. <3

-Dir En Grey -the GazettE -Alice Nine -An Cafe -The Cure -Muse -Tokio Hotel -Nega

I don't normally listen to music from Russia, German, etc. But I'll be trying some of them when I get the chance, I'm actually fond of Eurodance.

As for foreign music, I usually listen to Kpop, Jpop and some dance music from the States, UK, etc. I'm really enjoying Big Bang, 2NE1 (Even though as of now they only have 2 songs), Lee Junki and Super Junior. I used to listen to NeWS, but they became a little bit boring for me. And I guess Kylie Minogue's music can be treated as foreign music? ;D

I'm pretty sure I have listened to some German/European singers when I was lurking for some club/dance music to listen to. Moony for example, 'I Don't Know Why' was played almost every other day here.

Bands:

HIM - Finland The 69 Eyes - Finland Negative - Finland Rammstein - Germany

People:

Tomo Milicevic - 30 Seconds To Mars - Guitar/violin - Croatian Ville Valo - HIM - Vocals/guitar - Finnish Jyrki 69 - The 69 Eyes - Vocals - Finnish Jussi 69 - The 69 Eyes - Drums - Finnish Timo-Timo - The 69 Eyes - Guitar - Finnish Jonne Aaron - Negative - Vocals - Finnish

I listen to mostly Japanese stuff, but also Taiwaniese and Chinese. My favourites at the moment are NEWS, Arashi, KAT-TUN, DBSK, S.H.E, Show Luo and Ayumi Hamasaki, Ai Otsuka. There's a load more, but I'm so tired and must disappear now. x3
