Happy Birthday in Italian (video)


My daughter Silvia has turned 7 and we decided to give her a nice present: a trip to Yosemite National Park to celebrate her birthday with her friend Amanda Maruzzi.
Amanda lives in Milan and was visiting California with the family. For the past 6 consecutive years, the two little girls managed to celebrate this special day together. We decided the tradition should live on.
In this video you'll learn how to sing Happy Birthday (Buon Compleanno) in Italian. Enjoy!

- Can't see the video? Watch it from YouTube
- iPod version (MP4 - 5.3Mb)
- Zune version (WMV - 2.5Mb)

P.S. If you like this video, please leave her a comment here or on YouTube. She loves feedback!

Buon Compleanno a te, Silvia :D

I think you're guessing who am I... well, I'm Silvia Tosolini from Bergamo, Italy.
Tonight, while I was having fun on youtube, I've found some teaching-italian videos made by a young girl who has the same name of mine!
I just want to send you my greetings from Italy.
Good luck, you're a nice and talented girl!
Bye,
Silvia

io studio italiano, e faccio una domanda... Perche "Tanti Auguri a te", mah no "buon cumpleanno a te" quando cantando? Steve.

Just sent an e-mail to my Italian friend & we always send wishes to each other saying "Buon Compleano" or sing tanti augiri to each other on the phone, so this video really touched my heart.
Ciao

I can easily pick up the accent, because we were at EPCOT for dinner.
