Here in Italy in the 50s 60s and so on , we have many singers who took inspirations from American Rock'n'Roll stars. Some of them were supposed to be almost copycats of Elvis Presley such Little Tony or Bobby Solo. They gave themself exotic nickname (nom de plume) and do look like Elvis. They have lot of success. Celentano was well above all of them since he doesn't merely copy but go a league of its own.

@@psychosis1767 i'm just wondering if it's normal for every new song to sound like this. . unless i have the lyrics in front of me. example is Iron Maiden. First song i ever heard from Iron Maiden was "Aces High" and it goes like There goes the siren that warns of the air raid Then comes the sound of the guns sending flak , but to me it sounded like "da ga da sarou da waovaharah, da ka da savada ga sana fk" . and it was an earworm stuck in my head, just hearing the instrumental perfectly, but the words were gibberish and i thought, yeah, this kinda sux, it's not for me. .and then i gave it another chance and it took about 7 listens, before the words started to emerge. i mean, this is metal we are talking, and many metal singers already sing in weird ways, like guttural growls or high pitched screaming. . and the guy from Maiden has an accent from Across The Pond, which didn't help, lol. some desth metal singer, i nk they even enunciate the words. i'll have the lyrics in front of me and it looks all eloquent and poetic and then the guy just growls it what should be 5 syllables in just 2 and i knkw he did not say what was written in the booklet. . but then, like, pop music sounds like that too, when i got a Lady Gaga song stuck in my head, took dozens of metal albums to scrub that away. even classic stuff like Michael Jackson. . i still have no clue what he's saying in smooth criminal or thriller or bad. .

Russian and my native Tatar(Turkic group) - other languages I know don't have such problem, you almost always recognise the words exactly without guessing from the first hearing, even in the complex songs.

Most people don't make the effort to listen to the lyrics of a foreign language song even if they understand the language. And others don't speak english well enough to understand.

This is one of the best things I've ever seen online. My uncle used to sing nonsense "operas" in the car and it was hysterical. Years later my son, as a little one, thought that nonsense talk was too funny. Can't wait to show them this.

Sometimes it doesn't matter much what's being said just the vibe it gives

He's the only artist to never forget his lyrics because he just makes them up on the spot

He actually sounds American. I’m from Chicago Illinois, absolutely sounds American to me just making jiberish but that’s an incredible thing in itself? Right? Since most times mimicking a language often sounds like you’re doing just that. Does not fool anyone. This one is crazy.

It is not as impressive as you think it is for this to become famous, if people want to listen to a song, it'll be a hit. Many ways to achieve this, usually theres a mix between meaning, aesthetic, lyrics, harmony, and structure. This "song"(can it be considered one? The vocals are more so a phonetic instrumental tool...) hits most of these, it has an aesthetic, "lyrics", harmony, and debatably structure, lacking only meaning.

It was not meant to be a troll.

His aim was more to show how powerful music is that it transcends language.
