好像沒人提Nena(如有遣漏請見諒),我來提一下吧。閒言後表,上歌:
NENA | 99 Luftballons
Released 1983 (West Germany),1984 (United Kingdom)

這首歌太神奇了,非英語歌曲打進美國排行榜是很少見的(Sukiyaki?)
American and Australian audiences preferred the original German version, which became a very successful non-English-language song, topping charts in both countries, reaching No. 1 on the Cash Box chart, Kent Music Report, and No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100, behind "Jump" by Van Halen.
別跟我提Red Balloons, 軟趴趴的我一聽這什麼鬼啊。

In March 1984, the band's keyboardist and song co-writer Uwe Fahrenkrog Petersen said, "
We made a mistake there. I think the song loses something in translation and even sounds silly."
..., Nena has never sung "99 Red Balloons" live, even at her rare concerts in England, always performing the German version instead.
30年500多場演唱會,Nena始終沒在演唱會上唱Red Balloons,總是唱德文版。
嗯,原來不是只有我這麼覺得。
我不知道是翻譯不好還是他們英文不好(ABBA很好、Scorpions也很到位)。總之Nena的德文歌比較有韻味。
再貼幾首:

這首歌是84年發表的,但我不想貼這個原始版,有興趣的可以點進去聽
我想貼的是她和Kim Wilde合唱的版(2003發行請容我超貼),絕妙!
