I just love this Ville Valo cover of John Denver’s Annie’s Song. It’s sung in Finnish and retitled Olet Mun Kaikuluotain (You Are My Sonar). Ville is the vocalist with the Finnish Metal Rock Band - HIM.
I’m posting a second one because some people can’t access the first...it has the bonus of having Spanish subtitles.

Never mind your son...I do too! 
I never learned Finnish, but my grandfather, Uuno, was Finnish and lived in a Calumet Michigan as a child. The sound reminds me of him, though he rarely spoke Finnish, because there were few or none in St Joseph, Michigan where he lived.
