Thank you ! I have hordes of Point&Click in my backlog, but Monkey Island would be a top-priority. Also a wishlisted game.

Nice (at least for my taste) and not-so-well known songs from my country (France) ? Ouch. I listen quite few French songs actually, and most of them get millions of views.

From "semi-stars", I'd share Grégoire - Rue des étoiles, Emmanuel Moire - Beau malheur and Zazie - Je suis un homme. They are very well-known in France, but I assume way less or not at all in the other countries. I'd have added Claudio Capéo - Un homme debout and Zaz - On ira, but holy moly, 150 and 71 million views.

A couple of "stars-stars" who sing in English. I have to put them in that list, too good to pass that opportunity to put a "Cocorico" on them. Also, they are very good and I listen them often. You know them already I assume.
Woodkid is French. He's definitely, a hundred percent not "not-so-well known" anymore, but hey, he's worth a 250th listening. I don't usually listen the live version, but The Golden Age is pure awesomeness.
With 253 millions views, I assume they are well-known too. Caravan Palace - Lone Digger is indeed a French band.

But you didn't ask for these songs. Less known songs now,

Soan - S'il y a du monde. He won a The Voice-like a decade ago and since then, he has become a niche singer. I didn't watch that show and didn't know him until like a couple of years ago. Nice voice and nice (and very weird and poetic) texts. I like most of his songs, If you liked too, try Sequelles or Pas pour lui for instance.
Marvin Jouno - Quitte à me quitter, feels a little bit like Soan : niche and poetic with a quite "passive voice".
Pauline - Allo le monde, she goes often on the radio, but with that number of views, I guess you won't have found her on Youtube.

A little extra. In English but they are French, also not very much a text-song, but I find the music very catchy : Ofenbach - You don't know.

Edit : tothecapsules just above is from France too, from the same region than me, Alsace, in the North-East. The second song linked is in Alsatian if you're wondering, sounds very much like German.

Rafa Pons. Very unknown singer-songwriter from Barcelona (Spain). Lyrics are the best part of his work, so if you don't know spanish, you're losing a lot. But still, really nice songs.

And here you can see that song's lyric translated to english:

It has little changes in lyric, but you can make an idea ;P Thanks for both Monkey Island's giveaways!

Not sure what to offer. I'm not really listening to songs from my country because I don't like them most of the time.
Or if I like them, they are old rock songs from the 80's that should already be known by most people. ^^

She used to be well-known, but it was almost 2 decades ago now and I guess most people have forgotten all about her except from "Moi Lolita" and maybe "J'en ai marre!. Her last concert was in Poland, as apparently she had more success there than in her country at the end of her career... Anyhow here's a whole concert ^^

If that's too long I'd maybe recommend more specifically (one of the top comments contains the full track list with links to timestamps)
"Toc de mac" at 10:45
"J'en ai marre!" at 15:15
"L'e-mail a des ailes" at 30:57
"Moi... Lolita" at 44:43
"Amélie m'a dit" at 53:10
"Youpidou" at 1:08:00
"À contre-courant" at 1:16:57
Although tbh, the only one I really can't stand is"Mon maquis" at 34:59

Also thanks for the chance at Monkey Island :)

Check out this timeless collection of songs from the soundtrack of a movie released in India in 1992, an effort from early in the career of one of the most talented composers to emerge from the country - A.R. Rahman. The movie, titled "Roja" (meaning "rose"), was originally released in Tamil, a language spoken in Southern India. It has a wide variety of song types, raning from uptempo numbers to soulful ballads.
