The ending song is Yasaahii Yaoke by See Saw.
I assume song number 1 is Obsession also by See Saw.

As for your question, well, it's just because they didn't want to translate it. Usually when Japanese songs are translated into English they...well... suck. Lyrics have to be changed in some cases just so the song can rhyme or even make sense to the American audiences. Also, most anime fans including myself prefer as much of the series as possible to remain as close to the original as possible. Alot of very talented people put alot of work into these shows and in some cases they're are killed or ruined by american marketting.

Btw, Obsession is in english... it just doesn't sound like it. I thought it was Japanese when first got into .hack too... but it's english alright. There are also plenty of other English songs in .hack (In the Land of Twilight, Aura...etc).

The only way I know of to get the soundtracks (other than illegally) is to buy the //SIGN DVD or look on ebay or amazon.

That's Subaru's theme. The ending theme is, as stated before, Yasashii Yoake.
