100 songs that are versions of others

Creata da Don Juan il 21 Feb 2018
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.

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...

Bang Bang by Nancy sinatra. Also sung by Cher and Lady Gaga.

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.

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?).

It's been performed and released by the same artist, so it won't be added.

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.

Many artists made a cover of this song; one of them was Natalie Imbruglia, in 1997. Her version became a worldwide success.

Unfortunately I can't add another item to this collection. Maybe I'll open a Volume 2 soon.
