Singers do not sing the language they speak


Want to know if anyone knows such artists.
This post does not carry any educational meaning rather providing interesting statistics.

So here's my list:

1. Madeleine Peyroux -- born in Atlanta GA and sings songs in French
2. Gypsy Kings -- they're mostly from France and speak French while singing in Spanish.
3. Joe Dassin -- born and in USA and all of his songs are sang in French.

Now your turn...

This happens a lot in Japan. I've heard movie/anime soundtracks with songs in English, Gaelic, etc. They are quite cross-cultural when it comes to their music.

Well, countless opera singers, of course.

Also, I've read that Connie Francis recorded in something like 15 different languages.
