im old ( sweatdrop ) so i remember a time when a german girl called nicole took part in the eurovision song contest singing a song in different languages.That sounded pretty nice then.Ofcorse after that (maybe even before but im not THAT old!)other people tried that.
here is a try ,mixing english and dutch.
http://www.streaming-clips.com/videoclips/1031/Blof-en-Counting-Crows/Holiday-in-Spain.php
the song is really kind of crazy,,meaning the lyrics, but the two languages sounds good togheter in my opinion.
so what do you people think of mixing languages in songs?
(hope the link works,my links tend to fail sweatdrop )

Mixing them up too much would be odd and akward. I can't stand when my latin bands go Spanglish on me. crying
If you want to add a few lines of Dutch to a German song, it's not that bad. That's classy in my opinion. cool

a lot of songs put in splashes of different languages and do it well.
But I can't stand what my Spanish teacher wrote in my yearbook:
Paco - It's been an absolute placer trabajar contigo este ano - por favor - continue tus estudios en Espano para siempre
- Senorita Miss Senorita Hellman

I noticed a lot of Rai singers and Algerian French Rappers mix Algerian Darji Arabic with French in their music, A LOT! It works nicely! mrgreen
At least, that's what I think...

The song "My Saxophone" by Ilona Mitrecey has English, French, German, Spanish, and some other words that I don't know. Quote: Listen listen listen to my song It's wonderful Music is love Sienté sienté sienté esta canzone Mi corazon et Mon saxophone Viagga viagga viagga melodia Mon coeur musique Music is love Hören, horën, hören mein gesang It's wonderful My saxophone Voyage voyage voyage melodia It's wonderful Trippin' my song Voyage voyage de Londres à Hong Kong Mi corazon et Mon saxophone Listen listen listen to my song My coeur musique Music is love Sienté sienté sienté esta canzone Mi corazon et My saxophone Viagga viagga viagga melodia My coeur musique Music is love Hören, hören, hören mein gesang It's wonderful My saxophone What's "Viagga viagga viagga melodia"? What about "Voyage voyage voyage melodia"? I like the tune of this song, but I'm not so sure about the grammar, especially the German and Spanish lines. Is it right? MitosisK622 But I can't stand what my Spanish teacher wrote in my yearbook: Paco - It's been an absolute placer trabajar contigo este ano - por favor - continue tus estudios en Espano para siempre - Senorita Miss Senorita Hellman And I thought that languages teachers are supposed to try to discourage people from mixing languages (because that often leads to bad grammar).

Viagga viagga viagga melodia sounds Italian, in my opinion surprised
Voyage voyage voyage melodia seems like a mix of French and Spanish/Italian... travel, travel, travel, melody.

The sound "Here we Kum" by Molotov is one of the best examples of mixing 2 languages in a same song: English and Spanish. The chorus says something like:
Here we come and we don't care mucho!
If you know what they want, they just want your tepalguana mana!
Here we come and we don't care mucho!
Let's make varo varo hacer, varo varo hacer!
This is an approximate translation:
Here we come and we don't care about anything!
You know what they want, they just want your ******** sister!
Here we come and we don't care about anything!
Let's make money, money, money, let's make money, money, money
When you hear the song, you really think it's well done. Molotov has a really long tradition of mixing English and Spanish, and they're really experienced at it. 3nodding

But I do like Gimme tha Power, Voto Latino and Frijolero. 3nodding Molotov has great songs, they've taught me lots of, um, words... twisted

I don't mind mixing, as long as it's coherent. Heck, I mix languages when I'm speaking and often don't realize it.

The only songs I've heard with the languages mixed are Japanese songs. They have very few things in English usually. Usually like a few words or a sentance or two and that's it. I don't mind it. I like what they did on Disney's Mulan. One of the special features is a multi-lingual reel, where several people from different languages sing different parts of the song "Be A Man". It sounds really cool and they go really well together. 3nodding

I thought that too, it's basically code switching is what she did
