I wonder how many MAGATS complaining about Bad Bunny singing in Spanish loved The Macarena?

Or La Bamba?
Or Bailando by Enrique Iglesias
How many rocked out to Rock Me Amadeus in the 80's?

Two of the biggest songs in recent history were non english songs - Gangnam Style

I have no idea what he's saying, but I know this song makes me want to dance.

And Despacito.

I am so tired of their faux outrage about every damn thing. I bet they go to Zumba class and complain about the music too.

I didn't speak German - but I was the ONLY one in my family didn't. . . .

And I freaking loved this song!

Hast du etwas Zeit für mich
Dann singe ich ein Lied für dich
Von neunundneunzig Luftballons
Auf ihrem Weg zum Horizont
Denkst du vielleicht grad an mich
Dann singe ich ein Lied für dich
Von neunundneunzig Luftballons
Und, dass so was von so was kommt

Neunundneunzig Luftballons
Auf ihrem Weg zum Horizont
Hielt man für UFOs aus dem All
Darum schickte ein General
'Ne Fliegerstaffel hinterher
Alarm zu geben, wenn's so wär
Dabei waren dort am Horizont
Nur neunundneunzig Luftballons
