I'm Canadian and I was in grade 10 when 99 LuftBallons came out. My friends and I all loved the German version, learned all the words in German (my school offered German as a course option which I took for 4 years, and found the English version to be far too bubble-gum for the real message in the original song to come through. The German version will always be my favourite.

Heroes is always powerful, whether sung in English or German. I remember taking my 13 year old cousin to see JoJo Rabbit, and when she got up to leave when the credits began rolling with Helden playing over them, I stopped her, as nobody walks out on David Bowie, especially not a classic track.

Others I respect are Weird Al covering his track Jurassic Park in Japanese, Katy Perry and Lily Allen (and a few others) in the constructed Simlish, and Phil Collins’ You’ll Be in my Heart in at least eight other languages

War Song by by Boy George and Culture Club. In many countries, the single was released with a B-side consisting of a native-language version of the song, including those in Spanish, French, German, and Japanese.

I'm surprised Helene by Roch Voisine didn't get an honorable mention. It's the song that launched his career and he released an English version a year after the original French version hit the charts.

It's not a surprize that Celine Dion has recorded in French since she is from Quebec but Peter Gabriel has also recorded in German and Sting in Portuguese.

I tried listening to the French and German versions of Waterloo, but they don’t have the same feel as the English version.

With the Will and The Last Element from Digimon Frontier are cool in Japanese. There's German versions. They're AWESOME!
