Russian, and Lebanese Arabic (As it is actually a dialect which changes from country to country.) But it does kinda suck when you are in the Middle East at a family reunion and you hear your name and every one laughs, or looks at you.

German or Russian. I like the deep voices, and German sounds especially ominous like they're constantly pissed off.

And maybe Welsh, although as I understand it you need to have both a lisp and a permanent mouthful of phlegm to be able to pronounce anything in Welsh...
Actually, all you really need is an accent. My mother, who has an English accent, can't pronounce anything to save her life despite having done full Welsh language courses, while my dad, who has a Welsh accent, can pronounce most words perfectly despite never having learnt it.

Also, I really like the sound of Russian.

Not the Irish accent, I mean the real Irish language.
My grandfather taught it to me and I always have found it the most enchanting, beautiful language in the whole world.

Why, Finnish of course. No other language has as awesome curse words as Finnish. Unfortunately I was unable to find a really good video giving an example of this.
Pfft, nothing compared to Norwegian! Proof:
Haha, this is awesome. In addition I'd like to add Swedish to the growing list of cool-sounding languages since I am, of course, Swedish.

Bhí mé líofa cúpla bliain o shin, ach tá mo gaeilge go hufásach anois.

I still know enough to impress people who don't know it at all though.

OT: Probably spanish or something. Mmm...

Wow, your dialect is weird.

I learned this as:
Cén chaoi a bhuil tú?

What area are you from?

Edit: just looked it up, apparently, your Irish is standardised Irish :p
My grandfather was from a little town near Conaught, and apparently, that Irish is slightly different.

It also helps that "Conas atá tú?" is "How are you?" and not "Where are you from?" :p

That Zulu thing had bits and pieces of German in it. like "Volgende"
Dutch actually. Which isn't surprising since Afrikaans (south african) is basically Dutch with an accent.

Most foreign languages I've heard sound pretty cool, except for German, I have never really cared for it. Not so crazy about French either, even though its the only other language I can speak besides English.

Just making sure :p

Dublin. You?
I'm from Belgium, actually.
But my grandfather was from a little town near the edge of Connaught (or Connacht, whichever spelling you like best :p )
He wasn't born or raised there, he just lived there. :p

Scottish Gaelic it's rather nice to know alittle of what only 60,000 or so others do.

Russian a close second or hell even just the dialect Russian girls are something else on the ears man.

Japanese is by far both the coolest and the cutest.

Here is my evidence:
But to be fair, she doesn't actually say any Japanese words there...
That video sums up all the things that I hate about Japan
Well I know your entitled to your opinion and all, but you should really avoid stating that you hate something while everyone else around you is saying that they love it.
Why?
It just risks causing an an unfortunate situation for everyone involved. The person saying they hate the thing will likely be flamed (not on these forums though, as the people here are a bit too sophisticated for that), people arguing will end up being irritated, and everyone just ends up being angry at each other. And if you are going to do it, at least try to make people understand your point of view by explaining yourself.
lets not say something negative if someone else says something positive? i understand what you are trying to say though, but i 100% disagree. though in this case it doesnt really matter since it has 0 discussion value to like or dislike the sounds of a language ^^

and wow, the guy you were talking to was put on probation for liking arabic, whats up with that haha
