Blind Guardian Released "Harvest of Sorrow" off Night at the Opera in six different versions.
2 Spanish, 2 English (Acoustic & Electric), and, I believe French and Portugese. Might have been German in one of them.
I have "Mies Del Dolor" one of the Spanish versions.
Also: Echoes of Eternity's Forgotten Goddess (song, not entire album) is half French half English.
Falconer released a Bonus Disk of, I believe it's Swedish songs. dunno the L offhand.
Of course, if we mean languages other than the band's first, the majority of European Metal and Rock can be included. (Scorpions, anyone?)
