Can anyone help me with some questions, pleeeze?
I have been wondering about bands from other countries and their writing. Do they all speak English fluently and write their songs in English or are the lyrics often translated? American bands (SmyX, for instance), even though their major fanbase has been in other countries, release all music in English. Many would not have a clue what they're even singing about. But.....we get all lyrics in English from everywhere else. Are CDs released in other countries in their languages? This has me wondering, because so many lyrics from bands in other countries are great. How can they all be so fluent in English to write so well?
Or am I missing something here and just being stupid??
