I remember that you could get Cha-La-Head-Cha-La in english, sung by the japanese guy who sung the original...it sucked

Hmm, I think a few of the Slayers songs were titled in Japanese, but the were sung in English. I remember one that has versions sung by both Zelgadis (actor's name escapes me at the moment) and Masami Okui. Took me a year to realize she was singing in English.

Koibumi by Megumi Hayashibara I consider has more English than Japanese.

Nearly on topic, Idol Talk, from Macross Plus, is a English title, but the song is in French.

It's really kinda tough because just about every song I know has a translation and will be known by either name.
