I know "The Model" was mentioned, but Kraftwerk released most of their albums in both German and English language editions.

They also did a few versions of songs in other languages:

• Les mannequins - French (Showroom Dummies)
• Mini Calculateur - French (Pocket Calculator)
• Piccolo Calcolatore - Italian (Pocket Calculator)
• Dentaku - Japanese (Pocket Calculator)
• Minikalkulator - Polish (Pocket Calculator)
• Калькулятор - Russian (Pocket Calculator)
• Os Manequins - Portuguese (Showroom Dummies)
• Maneken - Croatian (Showroom Dummies)
• Manechine - Romanian (Showroom Dummies)
• Manichini - Italian (Showroom Dummies)
• Objecto Sexual - Spanish (Sex Object)
• 放射能 / Houshanou - Japanese (Radioactivity)

Blume by Einstürzende Neubauten was has English, French and Japanese versions with different singers. I think there's a German version too.
