<br>"Sukiyaki" by Kyu Sakamoto. Don't know a lick of Japanese but the melody is beautiful.

That one really nice, much much better than Taste of Honey version.
I should say Stereolab's Des Entoiles Electroniques.

This is a Japanese band called THE BADGE. They were compared to THE JAM, not only in sound but they looked the part, too. This song is excellent power pop, sung mostly in Japanese but strangely has a few English words also. It's called "Dancing".

The National Anthem!

Seriously though, I have a Madness 12" with them singing "One Step Beyond" in Spanish.

I am loving the singer Juana Molina. Her 3 cds: Segundo, Tres Cosas, and the yet to be released Son (which I heard a bit of on NPR a couple weeks ago) are simple stuning.
