Johnny Cash’s Spanish accent is “no bueno.” Los Lonely Boys did a bilingual version of “Walk the Line,” that is pretty. TheSpanishVersion . org has a bunch of good Spanish language covers of English songs.

Nice post, but what about the beatles?! They did two German versions that I know of – “Sie liebt dich” and “Komm, gib mir deine Hand”

Let It Be in Japanese: Cute!
Johnny Cash singing German: Absolutely charming!
Die Ärzte trying to find a rhyme: Funny! They stress the German word for Egyptian (Ägypter) on the third instead of second syllable in order to rhyme with ’schwer’ (the German word for hard). I would like to include one more song: Elvis Presley performing ‘Wooden Heart’ in German (a classic!)
