Dude so many! I'll link some favorites old and new.
All things Rammstein. I speak an elementary amount of German so maybe this doesn't count. If you only know Du Hast, you really should check out more of Rammstein. These are a few of my recent favorites. (each video is probably nsfw if you have a puritanical office.)

That's a decent list of some of my favorites. (please excuse the wonky formatting. I can't get it to behave.)
I would normally just go with an Infected Mushroom tune (there are a few in Hebrew like Lost in Space which also has Arabic at the end), but I challenged myself to think beyond my regular playlist, and Disko Partizani was the first that came to mind (partly in English, but otherwise in Romanian, I'm pretty sure).. Great tune and it's been ages since I gave it a listen, so thanks for the reminder!
I'm sure there are more examples, but my mind is drawing a blank right now.. This is going to bug me all evening lol
I listen to quite a decent amount of French music

I really like Hippie Hourrah out of Montreal - this song has been on repeat in my house for a while now:
https://hippiehourrah.bandcamp.com/album/exposition-individuelle?t=2
A lot of j-pop
Gangnam Style, O Fortuna (Carmina Burana), stuff by Hildegard von Bingen
I've got quite a bunch, in multiple languages and genres. Here are a few. Let me know what you think.

Mostly songs from C. Tangana , especially the songs from his "concert" on TinyDesk.
A bunch of Japanese Metal...
Band Maid - Domination
Neophila - AMA-TE-RAS
Ningen Isu - Heartless Scat
Maximum the Hormone - Koino America
Rammstein, most of what eluveitie makes and inabakumori makes...
Malagueña Salerosa from the Kill Bill soundtrack.
Anything by kælan mikla out of Iceland is good. Definitely Draumaudis/dream dance
Aural Vampire from Japan is a lot of fun too. Hard to pick just one. But kerguelen vortex is a good starting point.
"Ari Im Sokhag", Serj Tankian (system of a down) and Larisa Ryan, very beautiful Armenian song
Kasa no Hone - Anathallo
Pretty much anything by Sigur Ros
Traicionera by Sebastian Yatra.
I like most songs by Carla's Dreams (Romanian/Moldovan + Russian). From eurovision, Shum (Ukrainian) and My sister's crown (English+Ukrainian+Czech+Bulgarian) are pretty good. Slavic languages just sound nice in songs.
Also most pop in catalan (eg. La sortida, escriurem, Ara!).
For something rarer check out Pat Boy who sings in Mayan.
White Tiger Field (Byakkoya) by Susumu Hirasawa
No idea what this song name is Infected Mushroom - תרקוד לנצח. It's in Hebrew I believe. No idea what it's about, but I think it sounds great. Also Leonard Dembo - Mutadzi Ngaaregererwe. It's just super chill. It's in an African language, can't remember which.
I'm enough of a lyrics person that the language barrier is a pretty big issue when it comes to music but HATRIÐ MUN SIGRA and I si demà no tornara are both undeniable bangers
