Do you sing in languages you're not familiar in?

[ChunJin]

I always do it... but xD in my room. However, my friend did it and in front of a huge audience ~

One of my friend's joined a Chinese singing competition... However, my friend is not Chinese and does not speak Mandarin or Cantonese. He was the only non-Chinese person singing in a Chinese dominated competition, and he sang a Chinese song! A language he is not familiar in... He was pretty crazy & pretty brave!

He's a good kid helping in Kendo, is a Mathematics major, involved with various clubs and is a good friend to many.

Thank You Soompi!

ROFL yes

Even before I even knew English, I was babbling along with those mainstream songs and what not. Then I got into Cpop and started to mumble Chinese once in a while. After that it was Kpop and what not.. I even sang along to a Thai song.

Anyway, clicked the link just to be nice.. haha j/k

[Grey.Drops]

Yup.

Korean,Mandarin, Cantonese,Japanese,Thai,Ukrainian,you name it! I try to get the pronunciation exact as possible.If I don't I feel like a wannabe 'disgracing' the culture.

BTW, Don't 'advertise' your friend on soompi please.

[Guest Aerie]

Definitely

I tend to sing Korean and Japanese songs around the house. Actually, I learned to read Japanese by singing Japanese songs (though I still can't understand what I'm reading...)

[Guest swtaznangel]

[Guest KungPaoChow]

You mean out of the blue? I wouldn't do it if it wasn't actually a song. xD

[haruberry]

I do. Back when I was in Choir, I used to sing in a foreign language all the time.

I would sing German, Latin, Japanese, Spanish, French, ect.

Now, I just sing some gibberish trying to make it sound Korean. Haha.

[Morbi]

YES.

I'm in Vocal Music and they make me sing in french, spanish, german, latin, greek...everything ROFL.

And in my spare time I sing in Korean, Japanese, Chinese, English, Russian(don't ask). LOL.

[Guest yani-sakura]

I do it all the time, Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Indonesian, French, Italian and once i sand in latin. Half of my music is in a different language that i don't speak. I do like it when i understand certain phrases in the songs.

[chifuni]

Haha, in Chinese and sometimes in Spanish. It's fun.

[dainty!]

Yeah... chinese.

[Guest xktee]

LOL. Story of my life after liking Kpop. I do enjoy singing in chinese sometimes too.

[Guest avashuck]

[Guest H i k a r i]

Yes. Korean, Japanese, Chinese, French, Russian....etc

Well i hope im saying most of it right.

[Guest _unnie_24_]

Haha, yes... Korean, Japanese and Mandarin. I can understand little mandarin.. but not enough to grasp the entire meaning of the song. Haha.
