It's been reported that Sony is planning a worldwide roll-out of "I Belong," including releases in many countries that speak languages other than English. "I Belong" could soon be the most-covered Paul Westerberg song known to Man, for better or worse. Pete Yorn has already translated Paul's warble into American English. This is probably a bit esoteric, but can anyone recommend singers to cover "I Belong" in other languages?

Do you remember that episode of News Radio where Jimmy James' flop autobiography - "Jimmy James Lion Tamer" - becomes a huge hit in Japan after it is translated as "Jimmy James Donkey Wrestler," so they translate that version back into to re-release in the States?
No?
Well, it was really funny.
Anyway, I'd love to see a similar scenario with "I belong."
