Taylor Swift, BTS most translated singers in the world
Taylor Swift and BTS emerged as the most translated music artists in the world, according to WordFinderX.
WordFinderX analyzed data on more than 627,000 translations of 277,000 songs from more than 11,700 musical artists from LyricsTranslate.com.
“We ranked the songs by the number of times they have been translated from their original language and ranked the artists based on how many times their songs have been translated. We also ranked non-English speaking artists separately and the most translated artists from each country,” according to WordFinderX.

Swift is the No.1 most translated singer in the world with 4,954 translations on Lyrics Translate. Some 365 of Swift’s songs have been translated into one or more of 57 languages.
Placing second is BTS, who also emerged as the No. 1 most translated non-English language act, with 3,446 translations of 239 songs across 59 languages.
On the other hand, Michel Teló’s “Ai Se Eu Te Pego” (Brazil) is the world’s most translated song, with 131 translations, including Afrikaans, Welsh and four different Macedonian versions.
The analysis also revealed that “while English is the most common language for songs to be translated into from most of the most commonly translated languages, it’s not always the case. Korean is translated into Russian more than any language.”
The list also revealed the most translated song and artist for every country.
In the Philippines, for example, Aegis is the most translated artist with 80 while Bella Poarch’s “Build A B*tch is the most translated song with 20.
Here are the most translated singers in the world:
1. Taylor Swift - 4,954 translations
2. BTS - 4,005
3. Lana del Rey - 3,709
4. The Beatles - 3,156
5. Rammstein - 2,846
6. Anna German - 2,666
7. Laura Pausini - 2,569
8. Celine Dion - 2,504
9. Julio Iglesia - 2,170
10. Shakira - 2,094

A music theory analysis of the new Taylor Swift single

But because we’re in the business of popular song, you really have to move on quickly once you’ve established your tone. So we’re ushered into the new Taylor Swift aural aesthetic, which seems to be intense, intricate minimalism. Drum machines programmed with the bare minimum of fuss, a four-note melody and a throbbing, glissando bass drop are all we get until the bridge, which is even simpler - a two-note vocal melody, octave-spaced and alternating between the first and fifth degrees of the scale. This is all calculated, measured and meticulously performed: no slides into the blue notes, not a hint of showboating. Behind, a piano begins to gently thunder. It is, for a few moments, magnificent.
And then… chorus. Well, what you WISH was a chorus.
There’s an argument for either side here. On the one hand, Swift could be deliberately withholding that chorus we know she can deliver because that is what ‘old’ Taylor Swift would’ve done. On the other hand, it might be that she thought this was a good enough pay-off.
And that’s before you consider the context here. We agreed not to look at the lyrics too closely, but the opening not-tricky-to-decipher barbs directed at Kanye West become altogether more interesting when you think about Swift’s instrumentation. Would it be overthinking it to suggest that, after Kanye’s 808s & Heartbreak album, to use drum machines in this sparse a fashion on a major pop song is a bit dicey? Whether or not Taylor Swift is leading us up the garden path with all this extra baggage and side-eye, the musical result is confusing. Interesting, but confusing.
As the song concludes, the frustration is complete - the final chorus hints at the splendour that could’ve been, providing a skeletal version of all that potential bombast but refusing to deliver it fully. So is Taylor Swift now a musical prankster, a compositionally capricious innovator with an ear for the absurd? We’ll have to sample the rest of the new album when it arrives in November…
