Latino is a Brazilian pop star musician, he loved doing portuguese versions of meme songs. They were not necessarily good, but they were really funny.

Tales of Vesperia was being ambitious about it's release world wide at the same date so they, maybe backed by Microsoft, leaned heavily into localization. One effect was that the game's theme song is made by same artist in japanese for Japan's version and english for rest of the world.

Before this localized games had different, or intrumental openings and after this they just used usually the same Japanese pop song internationally. Abyss loosing it's Bump of Chicken lyrics is a big hit given how beautiful the song is.

 

[OverTheMoon]

Yes, absolutely. Some which I can think of are:
(Rurouni Kenshin 1996)

As well as:
(Jackie Chan's Police Story)

Meme:

Fredrik made a nice career here with these covers but also the song can change it's plot a lot, or keep it mostly same which is the case here. Main plot is the same but details very different, and the gun is referred as "Colt".

[Zerohour2k12]

It doesn't need to be related to videogame OST, but that's a plus if you're able to identify any! I'll start with these:

Hospital Theme (Earthbound OST) vs. Pé de Breque (Criolo)

And the famous one Aquatic Ambience (DKC) vs. Eco Zones (Blank Banshee) vs. Warmpop (ESPRIT, George Clanton)
