Well, I didn't learn them I had to do them phonetically. But I've recorded in Dutch and Japanese, too.

I'd been working with Elvis, but I just recorded Country, so he, definitely, like you said, encouraged me to try it, but I didn't, right then.

What we did in the meantime was that we assisted with transportation for those Japanese students to the Triangle.

Obviously, there are not enough Japanese children in each county in eastern North Carolina for all of us to have individual schools. Using a regional approach enables us to provide that degree of education so that when they're back in their country, they're even with all their classmates.

Words were written out for me phonetically. I learned to quack in French, Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese, Chinese and German.

And it wasn't until '84 when I was first asked to come to Sweden and do an album and concert tour.
