What English Sounds Like to Foreigners



Caption:
An Italian singer wrote this song with gibberish to sound like English. If you've ever wondered what other people think Americans sound like, this is it.
The nice thing about this video is that it allows English-speakers to drop their linguistic baggage and really experience the culture shock other folks, like the Italians, must have felt in the 50's and 60's when American rhythm-and blues and rock-and-roll came blasting into the Meditteranean.
