Thread Name: Singing in Different Accents/Dialects
Subject: RE: Singing in Different Accents/Dialects
Well I certainly didn't. I wonder if the meaning had a bearing on Philip Pullman's choice of mrs Coulter as name of hard, cold evil woman in His Dark Materials, whose chief task was to divide the children from their souls? No relation at all to Coulter's Candy then!
Like mrrzy, I sing in accent of person I learned song from. So My Husband's Got No Porridge In Him comes out somewhat Yorkshire..(from lovely Hilary Spencer) Not too great a stretch as it's actually where I was born, though I've not lived there since I were 5.
Thanks Jim, here I am again!
