Songs That United the World

Sigur Rós, 'Svefn-G-Englar' - The Icelandic band first came to the world's attention in 2000 with their hit 'Svefn-G-Englar.' 

Daddy Yankee, 'Gasolina' - This worldwide hit is one of the songs attributed with opening the door for reggaeton.

Stromae, 'Alors on Danse' - Belgian superstar Stromae had his biggest hit in 2009, as the French track 'Alors on Danse' hit no. 1 in nearly every European country.

BTS, 'Fake Love' - Though BTS has English song titles, they refuse to change their identity just to chart higher in America.

Psy, 'Gangnam Style' - K-pop master Psy nearly broke the internet with this famous song, the first YouTube video ever to exceed (and far surpass) one billion viewers.

Grace Jones, 'La Vie en Rose' - Edith Piaf gave the world this song, but the Jamaican star, who apparently learned French while modeling in Paris, imbued new life into the hit.

Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee, 'Despacito' - While Justin Bieber's feature had a big hand in the success of this song, it's hard to deny how catchy it is. 

Nena, '99 Luftballons' - Nena won the Eurovision Song Contest with this 1983 international hit.

Enigma, 'Sadeness part 1' - The combination of monks chanting in Latin and seductive French spoken word worked surprisingly well, topping the charts in 24 countries in 1990.
