But without the music and subtitles, its quite jarring. It uses a little domestic melodrama spanning a spectrum of emotional responses, for comparison.

It captures the sounds, rhythms and cadences of American speech, but it is pure gibberish, so it sounds like you're listening to a language you don't know. It also occasionally intersperses familiar phrases from common US speech, that people who know no English may recognize.

I've actually asked non-English speaking Spanish folks what English sounds like to them, and although I can't really get into their heads to find out, I suspect this clip does it justice. Of course, when I asked them to try and duplicate verbally what they heard, they had an atrocious Spanish accent.
