Now let a German pronounce it.

Just like all PIE-speakers, they absolutely butcher Finnish pronunciation.

It's much easier to learn to pass of as a native English speaker than it ever would to pass off as a native Finnish speaker.

German is very melodic, sing-songy, and fair, compared to Finnish.

That's funny, because that's how I would describe spoken Finnish. I guess it's all in the eye of beholder.
