Darkling - You Can Call Me Al, by Paul Simon; somehow it just has so much of a Darkling vibe
Red Starlight - Does Your Mother Know, by ABBA
Jaybells - Cruel Summer, by Bananarama - again, it just has a very Jaybells vibe (not so much in the lyrics, but in the sound and instrumental.

Periwinkle ~ "Eleni", by Kostas Mantzios. It has a very rich melody, and it's a feel-good song but aside from that it has a lot of spirit and beauty. And it has a sort of cool, fresh vibe that I really associate with you. Also "What We Do" by Lily DeTaeye, it's an indie song
Tsuki the Skywolf ~ "Who Says You Can't Go Home" by Bon Jovi featuring Jennifer Nettles - it's bold and direct and great to listen to
Zealatom ~ I may have said this before but def "Karma Chameleon" by Culture Club
Jaybells ~ I still think "Cruel Summer" by Bananarama really suits xyr (I hope I used the pronouns right, @Jaybells please tell me if I made a mistake!) but also "Camino Interior" by Chambao - it's a sort of Middle-Eastern deserty-sounding song
Peregrine Falcon ~ "Hajde Bukuri" by Grupi Albanet (sort of)
Darkvine ~ "Heads Carolina, Tails California" by Jo Dee Messina
CelineBurningBright ~ "Happy Girl" by Martina McBride. And "Home" by Kristin Bell. And I think there are probably others, I'll post them if I think of any :)
Cloud Bunny ~ "I Seek the Truth" from Frozen II
Cocoa Cat ~ maybe "Ragizi Apopse" by Children of the Revolution?
Rainbow ~ well, "L'oiseau et l'enfant" by Kids United always makes me think of you (you were the one who got me into Kids United music, so thank you!!) but maybe also "Te regalo" by Carlos Baute - it has a happy, enthusiastic, colorful vibe. Ooh, and "Colibri Callejero" by Monedita de Oro.
WildWolf ~ "Mai" by Giulano Desideri??? maybe?? not perfectly, though... ooh, maybe "No te quedes en el mismo lugar" by Monedita de Oro! I think that one suits you pretty well.
Lord Entropy ~ "Thank You Mario But Our Princess Is In Another Castle" by the Mountain Goats
Endless_Parodies ~ "La respuesta" by Lorena Santos - I don't think this one suits you perfectly, but it was the best I could come up with.
Sterling ~ "Donde iremos a parar" by Paco Padilla - a calm, nostalgic vibe that goes very well with you, I think! There's another song that goes really well with you but I don't know what it's called. *looks it up* Ah, it's "Bad Reputation" by Avicii. Dear me, that makes it sound like I think you've got a bad reputation :/ I don't, it's just that the lyrics are kind of wistful and the song has a sad, poetic, pop-ish sound that makes me think of you.

Wow, may I ask how do you know abou all these Greek songs? I'm Greek, so I was really surprised. I grew up on those songs! They bring back so many good memories...(especially "Eleni")

Basically, my mom has a large collection of CDs, ranging over many genres, and one of them is "Greece: A Musical Odyssey" by Putumayo. It's a collection of twelve Greek songs by various artists. I went through a phase a couple years ago when I was listening to a lot of the CDs (I discovered a lot of good music that way), and when I came upon the Greek one, I just loved it :) I've listened to it a lot since then, and by now the songs bring back a lot of memories for me too... :) It's so nice to find another person who's heard them! The songs I really love are usually kind of unknown by most people I know.
It's so cool that you're Greek! I would love to go to Greece someday. Have you ever been there (or were you born there...?)

OMG I listen to Greece: A Musical Odyssey all the time! Yeah, after the pandemic I am going every year to visit my grandmother. Sadly I was not born there...

"Thank You Mario But Our Princess Is In Another Castle" by the Mountain Goats, eh? Gonna check it out later... sounds real good.

Yay, I'm so glad you liked them! You're welcome :D
Iffy says <ukhen> so there's a hen in the UK, Iffy?
Oops, apparently that wasn't the correct answer. Or maybe I just didn't type it properly. Now she's saying <cgwaf>.

I've never listened to Greek music but thank you for starting a new obsession.
(May 18, 2024 - 11:53 am)
Oh, I'm so glad you like it! It's one of my favorite genres! :) The rhythms and the instruments and the sounds of the language - it's all so musical and lovely <33
If you'd like some other recommendations, I would suggest "Pino Pino" by Anastasia Moutasatsou, "Ela Mia Nichta" by Theodosia Stiga, and "Exinta Dis Dolaria" by Kostas Makedonas. You don't have to listen to them, of course! Just some suggestions in case you felt like listening to some more Greek music~
