I'm putting this in simply because it shows how adaptations of movie songs can be totally different in other countries. "A Whole New World" from Disney's Aladdin became "Ce rêve bleu" ("This Blue Dream") in French and was probably the biggest Disney hit ever until "Libérée Délivrée" (Let It Go) blew it to smithereens and destroyed the ears of all French parents.

Willie Nelson was so broke in 1961 that he offered to sell “Hello Walls” to Faron Young for $500. Young had already recorded the song, though, and “Hello Walls” – a tragicomedy about a man who’s so lonely that he speaks to his own bedroom – was on its way to becoming a hit. Knowing a big payday was on the horizon, Young loaned him the $500 instead, allowing Nelson to keep the publishing rights. Less than two months later, while “Hello Walls” was enjoying a nine-week run at Number One, Nelson received a $20,000 royalty check. Elated, he headed to Faron’s favorite honky-tonk to express his thanks with some surprise PDA. “I was sitting at Tootsie’s,” Young recalls in the biography Live Fast, Love Hard: The Faron Young Story, “and this big hairy arm came around my neck, and Willie french-kissed me. . .It’s probably the best kiss I ever had.” source2. Hello, Walls -- Faron Young
