specifically: children’s music is very good for beginners. Even when not intended to be actually educational the words are usually clearer and simpler than pop music, and the tunes tend to be catchy and memorable.
And even more specifically: Disney songs; catchy, memorable, and you may already know what it’s talking about (same goes for things like Corpse Bride, Nightmare Before Christmas, etc. - movies targeted at a young audience are more likely to have their songs translated instead of subtitled).
I listen to Hebrew music all the time. Even when the lyrics are simple and translated, it doesn’t stick. I wouldn’t understand them put in any other context.
Even when you’ve independently learned many of the words? I think the idea is for songs to help reinforce and build upon material you’ve already learned, rather than to get you started from zero.
To increase immersion, download some music in given language, so you can listen to it in your free time when you are too tired to learn otherwise.
