So, no examples then, Walkaboutverse? I am aware of one English person on here who sometimes sings in an American accent. I don't like it but it is hardly rife in the folk world, let alone on here. As to preferring every other culture to our own - Pifle! I like world music, culture and cuisine. I like European music, culture and cuisine. I like English music, culture and cuisine. It is not an either/or situation. We have the wonderful situation that we can enjoy the best of all worlds. If you seriously believe that something is better just because it is English, then you are what is referred to as a supremacist and I feel sorry for you.
