100 songs that are versions of others

100 songs that are versions of others

It goes like this: Artist 1 releases song A (originally in language X). Then, sometime later, Artist 2 comes, translates song A and releases it as song B (in language Y).

This is not meant to gather foreign versions of a same song released by the same artist.

In every item's description you'll find about the original song and its performer.

As it seems that I can't add more than 100 items to the current collection, you might be interested in checking the comments for songs that I couldn't add by now.

What about "Je deviens moi" by Grégory Lemarchal - a French version of the German song "Liebe ist alles" by Rosenstolz?

Mel C also recorded an English version ("Let There Be Love").

Well, it's always nice to see how a song works when sung in different languages... Though several Brazilian songs from the early 90's copied even the music of the original song... I wonder how they got away with this almost blatant plagiarism :*)

I'm sorry I'm having such terrible internet problems so it took me a half hour because of lagging but ... What about 99 Red Balloons it was originally in German and the same singer sung both versions?

Don JuanDon Juan
   So, 06/01/2019 - 20:56

I think that versions made by the same artist don't make people curious on who translated the song. I mean, I created this (and the other 'Foreign versions of...' collections) because I was interested in knowing who covered songs of my favorite artists in other languages, make the song more theirs...

Don JuanDon Juan
   Di, 22/01/2019 - 19:23

With this collection I don't mean gathering song covers, I want to gather translations/verses of songs done by someone else. Let's say, if the original Nancy song was in English, but Lady Gaga did a French version of it, Gaga's song would be given an entry here. But that's not the case.

Sailor PokeMoon2Sailor PokeMoon2    Sa, 16/02/2019 - 05:29

I don't know if this counts because it's sung by the exact same artist but "99 Red balloons" is the English version for the original German version called "99 Luftbaloons" (did I spell that correctly?).

Don JuanDon Juan
   Sa, 16/02/2019 - 22:45

Well, is it a cover of Stevie's version or is it a new song, with different lyrics?

I'm not sure if I looked hard enough at your list but I think I may have found something.. Unless I didn't look hard enough

The song Torn was written by Anne Preven and Scott Cutler, respectively the singer and guitarist of the band Ednaswap, in 1993.

It was first released on the album Ednaswap in 1995.
A Danish version of the song (Brændt, literally ‘Burnt’) by the singer Lis Sørensen was released in 1993.
