by any chance can you sing "Manhã de Carnaval?" that is my fave song in Portuguese.
i've not heard any songs i like [so far] sung in Catalan, perhaps there is something in the folky or classical realm [their equivalent of lieder] that will make me smile. also both are TOUGH languages for amuuuricans to learn or even try to pronounce correctly. but there is a lilting rhythm about Portuguese that carries me along with it.
choose one-
speak russian
or
speak icelandic?

I'll have to admit that I'm not familiar with that song, or any other in the genre, probably. I don't really listen to Brazilian music these days, and when I did it was usually some type of rock. Or this, or this.
Can confirm. Portuguese pronunciation is very tricky, yes. Lots of shape-shifting vowels.
Another one of my mostly fruitless "teach-yourself" phases. (Talarðu íslensku?
) I used to want to travel to Iceland before it was trendy, these days I'm not so keen on the idea anymore, considering how crowded the more interesting/accessible spots may be.same question

Sometimes I'd like to be 10-11 again and just stay that way... I don't like being an adult at all so far. lol

I had laughing gas for childbirth. It was pretty fun!
What is a CRT screen?
Dark chocolate is the devil's spawn.
