I see your Prisencolinensinainciusol and raise with Hubba Hubba Zoot Zoot
Shit, I didn’t even think about made up languages in songs. This has to be my favorite.
Well that song is gorgeous.
Neither one of the songs I posted is a made up language technically. The first one was made by an Italian guy, and if you listen closely, they are singing in “English.” At least those are English words. He made the song to simulate for English speakers what it is like to hear a song in English for Non-English speakers.
The second song is in Mongolian.
I knew the Hu was Mongolian.
The other song is complete gibberish though. As you said he is Italian singing what english sounds like to Italians. Not really english but has the cadence of english. There might be some common english words strewn in. I do the same thing to anime theme songs that are catchy. I only know about 150, 200 Japanese words max. That doesn’t stop me from wanting to sing along with Death Note opening credits, poorly.
Both are great songs.
Yeah, it is complete gibberish. He used English words, but put them into nonsense sequences. That’s why if you listen to the song carefully, you can almost understand it.
Your song is full of hooks. Not quite as many as Baby Shark, but easily as many as Rockin Robin

Recently, anything by Babymetal. They are fucking boss.
Probably Kingslayer
Krigsgaldr by Heilung. It’s in proto-Germanic if I am not mistaken.
(edit: spelling - my proto-Germanic is a bit rusty)
Interesting, apparently the lyrics come from a runic inscription on an ancient grave stone found in Norway.
I love songs either using ancient languages or otherwise ancestral. Such as the spring awakening chant buried in Shum by Go A https://youtu.be/sDeMfL8Ib9A
I’m also partial to throat singing and mixing old and contemporary instruments like what Otyken does https://youtu.be/aXsLlOPwe48
Oh that’s cool! The lyrics to Hamrer Hippyer appear to be from the Merseburg Charms.
Probably several songs from the Katamari series. Hard to pick just one.
Bloodywood - Gaddaar because it absolutely slaps, or maybe Sardaar Ji because I can’t hear it without thinking of this Bhangra group and they make me smile.
Lots of Central / Latin American modern stuff as well like Donde Nací by Orishas, which is also a feel good kind of sound.
Bloodywoods whole catalog slaps
I recently stumbled upon my latest music obsession:
As for my all time favorite, hard to say.
