Prisencolinensinainciusol

The other day I was asking Eric how he thinks foreigners would impersonate English. A few days later I happened upon this video. It was a song produced for Italian television. According to Wikipedia," the lyrics are pure gibberish, often described as sounding like American English as heard by a non–English-speaker." So there you go. This is what they think we sound like.

A few point I should mention before you watch the clip.
1. The song will get stuck in your head.
2. You will be confused you, because it does sound like English, but nothing discernible.
3. It is pretty freakin' funny.
