Sigur Ros speak English but sing in what I believe is Icelandish (is this even a language???)....although some of their songs are sung in a fabricated language of their own.
Dude, one of them can almost speak English but that's about it :p.

Ooooh shudder. God knows how or why, but somehow the French like her...

- Josh Groban in all his popera glory does Italian, as a native English speaker...
- Nana Mousskouri (sp) - sang in billions of languages...
- Tripod did that song in French that was hilarious :D.
