These are songs with a significant part of their lyrics sung in a language that is not English (more than just a word or two.) Some of these songs also have lyrics in English. The idea here is to highlight California songs from non-English speaking cultures. (I've also put some "world music" songs, such as those in the Afrobeats genre, which are mostly in English, but have a few words in another language.) They're all taken from the main list of songs that mention California.
