Why are some English language song titles just straightforward katakana transliteration (like “Strawberry Fields Forever” becomes ストロベリー・フィールズ・フォーエバー), other songs are a more literal translation (like “Norwegian Wood” becomes ノルウェイの森), and other songs are a Japanese translation with a little artistic license (like “Nowhere Man” becomes “ひとりぼっちのあいつ)?
