I do and for some reason it annoys the heck out of other people and i think its the language barrier.

I completely agree with you. There is an imaginary "language barrier" that stops people from listening to a song in a language that is not theirs. And i really find it too bad. Personally, i think it's beautiful to just listen... even if you don't understand the words... it's the whole idea of going somewhere you don't know...
I live in France, and i listen to music:
- in french (Sinik, 113, Gérald de Palmas, K-Maro)
- in english (Sting, AAF, 12 Stones, Counting Crows, H.I.M)
- in german (die Fantastichen Vier, Bushido, Eko Fresh, Fettes Brot)
- in arabic (Nancy Ajram, Rami Ayash, Haifa Wehbe, Hani Shaker)
- then, a bit of spanish and italian; but not that much.
But then again, there's also, in my opinion, another barrier, which stops people from listening to a type of music that is not theirs (for example, some metal-heads will never listen to pop)

Over 10% of Americans are Hispanic, they listen to Latino music all the time. Other immigrants also listen to "foreign language" music.

I listen to German music because I'm currently living in Germany. But it doesn't bother me listening to music in other languages. I like to try and understand the feeling of the music without understanding the actual words.

I'm American and I like to listen to French music. I think the language is beautiful.

Yes, I do. I was in Brazil about 10 years ago and since then I love to listen to Brazilian music( I love the accent) The same with middle eastern music.

Sometimes I do. Personally, one of my favorite Police tunes is "J'aurais Toujours Faim de Toi" (I hope I spelled that right) - and I will crank it and sing along in traffic, while people right/left of me have NO CLUE what I'm playing.

no we dont the reason why is because we want music with meaning. and if we cant understand the song, (except those who listen to screamo and rap) we wont listen to it, i need songs that i can sing the words to
