Hello Hi Hey

Hello Hi Hey

This is a song I wrote in October and November of 2020. It features words for hello, how are you and good morning in 33 languages - all of which I've studied or dabbled with, and one I invented (Laala), plus a few English dialects. I can have at least basic conversations in about half of them. The only language I've studided that isn't featured here is BSL (British Sign Language) - if I make a video for this song, I will add it.
