A Dios le Pido is another classic by Juanes. In fact, most of his songs are pretty amazing.

Also anything by La Oreja de VanGogh. Vert touching poetic and intelligent lyrics and great catchy melodies.

This is also quite good:

“France Gall - Ella Elle L'a (tribute to Ella Fitzgerald)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bQkB-WWzsbg”

I love this song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like the dance cover by Kate Ryan too but the France Gall original is unbeatable.

I remember buying this in the UK in about 1987/88 but shortly after it was re-released as a Stock Aitken Waterman remix. I normally love SAW but the France Gall remix didn't do it for me as the original was a beautiful song but adding a dance beat didn't suit the song in my opinion.

I have more Finnish suggestions. I mentioned Jonsu from pop-rock group Indica. Well, I don't listen to them, but I know that they almost always sing in Finnish, so they may be worth a look.

Also, if heavy metal is OK, check out Moonsorrow. Again, almost everything's in Finnish. They do ofte use death vocals though, so they may not be what you're after.

Apparently that's Mikhail Gorbachev saving Russia by shooting zombie communists with laser beams, turning all the young women into cheesy porn stars and doing fancy aerobics.

“Diams - Confessions Nocturnes

Based on this video I would never mess with her! Or check out the mickey take of the Diams video by Fatal Bazooka”

Is that person she's talking to a man or a woman or both? I swear their appearance and voice keep changing. Or maybe that's just me.

While we're back on the subject of ridiculous things, earlier I mentioned Malice Mizer's Gekka no Yasoukyoku. I love it now, but when I first saw it I thought that whichever member had written it must have been high on some substance never before consumed by humans (wallpaper paste blended with fool's gold, for example). I'm still not sure what's with the vocalist's action-man eyes, and why everyone else has only fixed expressions.

And yes, those lyrics are about right. This is a song about puppets coming to life.
