Pop Culture Pop-Up: Parlate Inglese?

Adriano Celentano Prisencolinensinainciusol 300x297 Pop Culture Pop Up: Parlate Inglese?I’ve been taking improv with the inimitable Denny Dillon. One of my favorite improv acting exercises involves having a conversation in gibberish, a foreign language that you don’t speak. Have you ever thought what English sounds like to people who don’t speak it? That’s exactly the idea behind the amazing “Prisencolinensinainciusol,” a song written in 1972 by Italian actor, singer, and comedian Adriano Celentano. The song sounds like English, until you listen closely and realize that the lyrics of Celentano are complete gibberish. Fascinating, hilarious, and fun – with a great funky music video, too. Watch it! Trust me, you’ll like it.
