I wonder if this "Phonetic Punctuation" was translated to any other languages?
How cool!, I never would have thought about it being used by other performers OR translated into other languages!!!

Okay, your assignment, should you choose to accept it... find copies of these other performances in different languages and post them!!!

I would lOVE to see them!
