      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.

              Does it count if nobody knows the words?

                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.

                      historical example: Sukiyaki by Kyu Sakamoto – released in Japan in 1961 under “Ue o Muite Arukō” – released in US in 1963 under “Sukiyaki” because that was about the only Japanese word Americans knew …

                        That’s not really fair: Giddens could make coughing up phlegm sound amazing.
