  • While touring England I stopped at the famed city of Manchester to talk to people in the park as a gecko.
    Interviews include a bartender seeking balance in their life, a man who had his jaw broken on a nearby street, an accomplished construction worker, a distressed hotel guest, and woman who claims she is the ambassador of Manchester who teaches me about spirits.

    • @fearoffancy5743
      @fearoffancy5743 Před 10 měsíci +13

      Everyone does unless they actively choose not to most of the time, or if their accent is too thick. There is a standard 'singing accent'/'pop accent' that people use because it appeals to the masses (America) more, it's basically a subconscious thing to do at this point.

    Americans, you need to realise no one drops their accent fully when they sing. You can usually tell from tones and rounding. E,g. When Amy Winehouse sang, you could tell the tonality, but not the accent. Think about it, does someone from Baltimore drop their accent when they sing? There is defo differences between British singers & Americans…
