Edvard Griegs Piano on National TV (Norsk)

[Richard Brekne]

Whoa !!!  Du skriver og leser Norsk !  I am impressed and surprised 
Alan. Way cool as they used to say back when I lived in Seattle.  Moving 
to Norway ??  Long story... but very short I met a Norwegian girl in 
Tahiti in 1980... one thing led to another rather quickly... by the end 
of 1981 I was here and married.  As for writing bad lyrics.... you 
should see my written Norwegian !!

Really cool that you understood much of what was said !

    Vidunderlig !

    Jeg forsto selv noe av dialogen (de Engelske ordene, er det).

    Your weather guy would make a good funeral director--unless folks
    confused him with the other stiff.

    What's your story, Ric? How'd you end up å leving i Norge, tale
    Nordmann, som skriver dårlig lyrikk ?
