    Ironically, most pop is in English, whereas most pop listeners are not English speakers.

        Kind of a weird one, but the beginning theme to the original Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex has stuck with me.

        The song is called "Inner Universe," but the lyrics are Russian.

          Buenisima by Vakero! I don’t know Spanish and haven’t found lyrics online to translate it unfortunately.

              I've been a fan of Rammstein for many years. I know the gist of what each song means and know a few words of German. But I can't translate word for word.
