The album also features a number of other bilinguists, who sing every few lines of most of the cuts in "ear-caressing" Hawaiian and the rest in plain old English. The result is jarring, to say the least; not to disparage our compatriots to the southwest, but consider the following phonetic interpretation of "Jingle Bells...

...Dort Elementary School in Flint, Mich., 25 Follow Through kindergarten children sit quietly in neat rows working on assignments. At the front of the room the teacher is drilling four children on reading. Imperious, she snaps her fingers to signal for the answer, which the children chorus together. The children seem secure and interested, but they know they will not be asked for an individual response until after the chorus. When it is time to read, they follow a bright red arrow across the page from left to right to remind them that reading is done from left to right...
