Prisencolinensinainciusol an Italian song that is complete gibberish but made to sound like an English language song. That's what AI is right now.

Oh that is hilarious! Just on my first listen but I don't quite get the lyrics - am deeply disappointed that the video doesn't have subs. 🤭
Found it on Spotify. It's so much worse with lyrics. Thank you for sharing a version without them! 🙏
The Italians actually have a name for that kind of gibberish talking that sounds real. I did some VO work on a project being directed by an Italian guy and he explained what he wanted me to do by explaining the term to me first. I'm afraid it's been way too long since he told me for me to remember it though.
Another example would be the La Linea cartoons, where the main character speaks a gibberish which seems to approximate Italian to my ears.
