I sing, tu chantes, hij zingt, ella canta

Same singer, other language.

Axelle 🔴 Red 🇫🇷 🇪🇸

🇧🇪 singer Axelle Red released the album Con solo pensarlo, which contains 🇪🇸 versions of some of her 🇫🇷 songs: the evergreen Sensualité (Sensualidad) and the ever beautiful Je t’attends (Te esperé) and many more to discover.

The queen 👑 della musica italiana and Co 🇮🇹 🇪🇸 🇧🇷

Multilingual, my all time favourite, responsible for my best concert ever (Rome, Stadio Olimpico, 2016) but Laura Pausini is also the first 🇮🇹 female artist to win a Grammy Award 🏆, 2021 winner of a Golden Globe and in her home country known as La regina 👑 della musica italiana.

Almost all her songs exist in an Italian and Spanish version, some in Brazilian Portuguese. Too many to mention, but I won’t let you go without a short trilingual overview.

Due innamorati come noi	Dos enamorados	Apaixonados como nós
Incancellabile *	Inolvidable	Inesquecivel
Invece no	En cambio no	Agora não
Le cose che vivi	Las cosas que vives	Tudo o que eu vivo
Nel primo sguardo	A simple vista	No primeiro olhar

Her latest song Io sì (Seen) is nominated for an Oscar and more importantly a multilingual feat, released in 6 versions, 5 languages 🇮🇹🇪🇸🇧🇷🇫🇷🇬🇧 and the soundtrack of La vita davanti a sé (The Life Ahead) casting Sophia Loren.

Many 🇮🇹 singers soon followed in her footsteps and released Spanish songs and albums; Nek, Tiziano Ferro and Alessandra Amoroso being the most famous and successful ones. Why stop in the land of 🍕 and 🍝 if with slightly adapting the song gives you access to the 🇪🇸 speaking world?

Queen 👑 Céline Dion 🇨🇦

The woman our Google 🏡 wakes us up with on weekdays, sometimes in 🇫🇷, sometimes in 🇬🇧. Some songs you available in fish and chips version as well as pain, vin et boursin:

• If That’s What It Takes – Por Que Tu M’Aimes Encore
• Have A Heart – Partout Je Te Vois
• Fly – Vole
• Let Your Heart Decide – Tous Les Secret
• I don’t know – Je sais pas
• Et je t’aime encore (same title for both versions)

She has a similar voice in my opinion and like Céline she has 🇨🇦 citizenship (next to 🇧🇪) and while singing mostly in 🇫🇷 Lara Fabian‘s biggest succes was I Will Love Again 🇬🇧, also released in 🇪🇸 as Otro Amor Vendrá.

Let’s dance with J.Lo 🕺, Enrique 💃, Shakira 👯 and Mika 🩰!

Saying that the combination 🇪🇸🇬🇧 is popular is the understatement of this and the former century.

As a teenager I had Jennifer Lopez‘s first CD (On the 6) and 🎤 and 🕺to the lyrics of Waiting for Tonight (I did turn of the lights and closed the curtains first), but when I reached the 🇪🇸 version on the 💿 (Una noche más) I had to limit my lip-sincying to the title (I only started stuyding 🇪🇸 at the age of 33). But whenever, wherever I hear it now I’m proud to say I know the lyrics. ¡Olé!

Talking about Whenever, Wherever Shakira sang Suerte to the same lyrics and to celebrate the FIFA World Cup 2010 ⚽ Waka Waka (Esto es Africa) became Waka Waka (This Time for Africa).

Enrique Iglesias tried to Escape in 🇬🇧 y intentó Escapar en 🇪🇸, but dancing was in both languages Bailamos.

Multilingual Mika turned Staring at the Sun 🇬🇧 into Tant Que J’ai Le Soleil 🇫🇷 (or the other way around) and Elle M’a Dit 🇫🇷 became creatively Emily 🇬🇧.

So now, voulez-vous danser 🕺💃👯🩰 avec moi?
