Subject: RE: Sting calls X Factor Karaoke
Just answer the fffffing question, WAV. What does it matter if a person chooses to sing in a different accent? After all, you are a Naturalised Australian who attempts to sing in an accent that is most certainly not your own - much less the songs you attempt to sing, or else the culture with which you attempt, however so bizarrely at times, to assimilate yourself. One would think that your much publicised anthropological training would have given you a fascination in human culture as being the things that people actually do, rather than the things you think (for whatever crazy) that they ought to be doing. I'm in this latter school myself - it's called The Live and Let Live School of Living which is founded on the ideal of the Human Individual being free to do whatever they are moved to do and for culture to be a reflection of this, rather than the other way around, which isn't very good at all. You are one such individual, WAV - enjoy your freedoms in the name of the greater freedom of all!
