I heard MK telling sentences in Spanish, Italian, French, German and other languages during concerts, when in Spain, also in the languages of the region he's playing, like Catalán (in Barcelona), Gallego (when in Santiago or Coruña...)

I guess someone tell him what he has to say and he learnt it for the gig.
Mick Jagger is an ace at doing that...

Phil Collins gives all his speechs in the language of the country he is playing, he has some notes and read them!

He has a Collins dictionary to translate though.  ;D

I see what you did there  :)

Maybe he's got a degree in - wait for it - philology?

Very good.  I've been outdone...against all odds.   :lol

On a side note, my 4 year old daughter has just written her first word, it was Abacab, or something very close! ;) ;D
