Emotional Prism by Mikazuki Bigwave, one of the top comments on the YouTube video sums it up perfectly with "I don't know the words but I can feel the funk"

Going with this one. I blame Ghost World for starting my obsession with Indian music of all kinds. Started with Bollywood, into traditional sitar music. My playlists now regularly includes music from everywhere that I don't understand a word of. 😅
There's this heavy metal Japanese band named Aldious. Many of their songs are real bangers, like "Ground Angel" and "Yozakura", but there are two particular songs that, as you said, get me dancing and yelling, even if they're more "pop-ish" than the others: "Without You" and "Die for You". They put me in a good mood every time I listen to them 😆.
Cairokee - Dinosaur
This is the censored version (for political reasons) but it has the beautiful music video.
Edit: also not thaaat much of dance music
can't pronounce the name of this song itself, but there's this Japanese band called glim spanky that has some absolutel bangers.
感じている by Saury might be my favorite song of all time, I might have fucked it up by having it as my alarm sound for a while but it was just so good at getting me up and pumped!
Besides all the Japanese anime and city pop songs I enjoy listening to, here are some international bangers I can't help but dance to:
I speak English and Duolingo German. And read some old Greek.
- Porter - Hombre Máquina
- Ana Tijoux - Shock
- Silbermond - intro (Die Mutigen)
These groups have tons of great songs, but these are the first that come to mind for me.
My favorite comment on it is "My balls dropped during this video. And my I'm a 35-year-old woman."
Man there's a surprising amount of Finnish songs here. Torille
La Bamba, the OG.
anything that ado has sung for/covered tbh
Most songs from heilung. I love alfadirhaiti, anoana, and in maidjan krisgaldr is also amazing, othan. Live versions imo are waay better than recorded versions.
Another one from a different band, wardruna, helvegen with aurora is amazing.
Ma-ia-hii, Ma-ia-huu!
It was sampled too, so you may recognize it. https://www.whosampled.com/Kourosh-Yaghmaei/Gol-e-Yakh/
Any (shounen) anime opening/ending songs- One piece, Naruto, Fairy Tail, Angel Beats, Noragami. Yu-Gi-Oh (dub) doesn't have any lyrics, but it still goes hard AF even after 15+ years.
To be honest, there are a lot of songs that i mightsing along to that i have no clue what the real lyrics are. I was just jamming to some old skool Nevermind earlier today!
Baba Yetu by Stellenbosch Choir (or anyone actually)
Kuschel Song by Schnuffel, it honestly just makes me think about a simpler time in my life when I didn't realize just how much I had laid out before me.
Scott & Zelda by Bibi

I've been trying to learn French so maybe it doesn't quite count anymore, but I really enjoy Papaoutai -- both the original Stromae version and this Pentatonix cover that introduced me to it -- as well as various other songs by Stromae.
Uska dara by Eartha Kitt.
La cocuracha (or however it is spelled)
Chaile chaile
Oh, and
