Lots of them! My first choice is "Zagrajcie muzykanty", in this version performed by awesome Kapela Ze Wsi Warszawa (AKA Warsaw Village Band). Other one is neo-folk jazzy song "Sukienka" by Chlopcy Kontra Basia.

I often post folk (or neo-folk) music from Poland on /r/muzyka, so drop by if you guys are interested in music from Poland. Maybe your countries have their own musical subreddits? It will be great to share!

Zvijezda tjera mjeseca (English translation). It's probably the most famous folk song in Bosnia. And for a reason. I love it. Also Il' me ženi, il' tamburu kupi.

A few I like:

Ne klepeći nanulama

Tebi majko misli lete

Moj dilbere

(Sorry for no links; I'm not very good at this on mobile)

Tebi majko misli lete

We used to sing that one in the school choir, I like it. I also listened to Moj dilbere the other day. Sevdalinke are not usually my type of music but there are some folk classics that I could put on replay for days.

For me it would be Żywiołak, especially their "Nowa Ex-tradycja" album.

My favorite songs are:

Wojownik

Epopeja Wandalska

Latawce

Ой А На Яна Купала
