We as Americans make fun of foreign languages enough, right?
So what if an Italian made a gobbledy-gook gibberish American rock song -- American English in Italian ears!?

Seriously, I got a big kick out of it. Kind of trip, actually

Glad to have been of service!

And dammit, where the hell did you find your avatar? I just can't get over it. I think I need a full sized version of it to show a friend and his wife -- she was Gachapin for Halloween one year while my buddy was Mukku

That was pretty funny...

I watched a movie last night called Dead Snow... it's a Swedish **** Zombie flick and man... it sure sounded like gibberish* to me. Usually a foreign language sounds like just that but in this movie the Swedish sounded made up to me.

Good thing there were subtitles.



*no offense to any Swedes reading this.

It was actually quite catchy! I`m sure all music sounded like that to us when we were like 2 years of age.
