Andy7 why do some sing in usa accent (64* d) RE: why do some sing in usa accent 11 Nov 18


A song I like to sing from time to time is Dolly Parton's 'Coat of Many Colors', which includes the line "It was way down in the fall".

This just sounds stupid if I sing it in my southern England accent, so it comes out as an Americanised version of my own accent, somewhere between English and American.

Although I suppose I could always change the line to "It was well into autumn", that might work!
