There's translations of lyrics, and then there's English "versions" of songs. In this week's video we talk about what can get lost in translation, when a song is translated from one language to another. While there's nothing wrong with a lyric interpretation or translation, if understanding the original meaning of song is what's important to you, you're probably better off with a direct translation.
