great album. I'd like to hear more of Giorgio speaking English with a German accent lulz

Which is pretty funny since Italian is his native language.

Yes, he's Italian, but he is from South Tyrol, where the majority of people speak German, and he ran a studio in Munich in the 70s and 80s.

@benoa87: I bought Giorgio by Moroder, Beyond and Lose Yourself to Dance.

The town where he was born at Urtijei, Italy 84.19% of the population speaks Ladin so that's probably the language he learned and spoke first before Italian and German.  He also has the most common last name from that town.

I know where he was born and I'm pretty sure Moroder speaks at least four languages: Ladin, German, Italian and English. Doesn't change the fact that he has a German accent despite being Italian.
