Celentano is a legend in Italy.

-----------------------------
In this remarkable and fully rockin' video, an Italian singer performs a
rock piece whose lyrics are gibberish intended to sound like English.
Entitled "What English Sounds Like to Foreigners," the video is meant to
illustrate which English phonemes and syllables carry into the foreign ear,
but I tell you what, it sounded like English to me, too, though like English
as sung in such a way as to make it hard to decipher.
