In Spain, Galician and some Catalan dialects (Tarragonese).
I'm Galician, so thanks I must slightly disagree on Tarragonese though. I find most Catalan dialects and accents beautiful (it's a marvellous language) but the one spoken in Mallorca and the one spoken in the Northeast are my favourite ones.

Also, how can French be ugly? Incroyable!

The English choice was limiting.
If there was Scottish I'd totally pick that, but since there wasn't I went with Italian. Everything they say sounds seductive.

American English for business and BS, Brazilian Portugues for good times and love, and northern German for a great rut.

Hey guys I'm just curious what do you think about this language, my native language - Czech. Is it romantic or not? Is it rough or smooth? Thank you very much.

This comes from a Czech Stand Up comedy show.

Otherwise the best sounding language for me is French, English, Dutch and Italian.
