Wow I didn't expect that from George. Does he speak Mandarin at all or did he learn his lines specifically for this? Either way I'm very impressed.

George is the guy that I respected as a singer and a supporter to our troops. and now as a friend of China!! thank you George!

You have to admire George singing in Mandarin. That would terrify most English speaking musicians! 'Seems like he did a good job, but I guess a Mandarin speaking person would be a better judge of that!

that is a common joking line, very few of us actually say that. Do you realize that when you say "for the caucasians they cannot tell which is which", you are saying that we think Asians are all the same but yet at the same time, this implies that we are all the same? Some of us can tell the differences between Asians. Though we have moved around so much and borders have changed so often throughout our history that we are difficult to distinguish.

Yes i'm late but something had to be said
