I, of course, wouldn't mind listening to music in any of those languages, but the omnipresent Google values much more giving me familiar stuff or universally popular songs.
There's quite a few alternative/goth bands that sing in German (or both German and English), I just came across some of them by chance, one I was familiar with is Rammstein, they're one of the more popular German bands that pretty much sing only in German, the first time I ever heard them was over 10yrs ago on a late night talk show, and I didn't even realize they were dining in another language. I'm also finding songs in German on my "discover weekly" playlist on Spotify, it suggests bands that are similar to bands already in your library. It's a good thing there are so many German bands that sing in German because it'll help me to hear the language, and it's somewhat of a helpful way to learn a language aswell.
