Kylie certainly sounds Australian. Even though she has lived in Britain for a fair part of her life. Jimmy Barnes and Bon Scott sounded Scottish because they were. I am trying to think of Australian singers who sound American, John Farnham maybe? Billy Fury didn't sound American. He didn't sound scouse, but then he wasn't really. His voice I would say is English, but without any particular regional imprint. As for Ian Dury, I know of no British people who sound like his performance voice. He sounded like a music hall parody of a Londoner, because thats what he was trying to be. Keith Urban is singing an American musical form. Also according to Wikipedia he has been living in America since 1991. Of course he will sound American. I think that you have a strange view of the way people speak Tunesmith.
