I do because I listen to Japanese artist like Gackt and Miyavi. I am starting to learn their language though so I know what they are singing about.

Most of the music with foreign lyrics that I listen to is indecipherable to anyone regardless of mother tongue. I have no problem with foreign lyrics... Bjork instantly comes to mind. Then of course, there's Magma who invented their own language.
