Usually its like just a few words sprinkled in, or at most like one or two lines…

Literally I feel like they’re just trying to say: “Hey this is a foreign language I’m sooo cooool!”

    This happens all the time with music. Especially with bilingual people. Maybe listen to more music, kid.

      Recommendations?

      Idk how to even get into listening to English-language music…

      Should I spotify? But then again that’s corporate… I’d get cancelled here if I start using that…

      How are you even supposed to… um… music?

      I’m literally just listening to random Cantonese and Mandarin music on Youtube…

      The only music I ever had at home was hearing my dad’s Cantopop… that’s my introduction to music…

      (And also just random intrumental music I found online… like beetoven stuff)

      So C-Pop is what I know most…

      (The only English songs I know are stuff similar to “Because of You” by Kelly Clarkson, cuz I just wanted to find songs about the theme of shitty parenting… cuz I had problems with parents and need some songs like that for cartharisis)

        I mostly listen to music on Youtube.

        Well, that’s technically not true. I mostly listen to music in videogames. They basically ALL have some sort of background track. That seems different somehow.

        Anyway. When something makes me think of a song, I’ll look it up on Youtube and play it, then sometimes listen to other stuff that comes up in the suggestions.

        I’ve looked up artists/groups because of seeing them mentioned here. I like Eleine (not normally a metalhead otherwise).
