Mr Fox Preference or Snobbish? (131* d) RE: Preference or Snobbish? 02 Nov 08

Would you not like an Irish tune played by someone who is not Irish ?
No, I don't mind who sings it (much).

Would you enjoy an Irish Song if sung by an American with an American accent or even just a couple of words that has wrong pronunciation?
Yep.

Do you enjoy American Country Music sung with a false accent ?
I don't enjoy American Country Music at all.

Should American Fiddle music only be played on a fiddle?
Don't see why.

Do you enjoy a Opera singer singing Folk Music?
Depends. I like Vaughan Williams' arrangements of folk music, which is much the same thing.

Should a Copper Song be only enjoyed if sung with a Sussex accent?
Don't be silly.

Should music of other countries only be performed or recorded by musicians from those countries?
Of course not.
