I commend people who can genuinely like music they don’t understand the words to. Lyrics are such an important part of my enjoying of music because it evokes much more emotion than just the melody. So as someone who grew up speaking Japanese and English, US, UK, CA, JA songs are my favourites. I can’t enjoy French or German songs because I only understand at a surface level.
I do enjoy orchestral music if it’s attached to some experience I’ve had like movies, anime, or videogame (I listen to the PSO: BB OST all the time because I spent thousands of hours playing that game in high school).
