Just Madonna but I don't know her
because i know bits and pieces of about 6 languages i sound like nothing you've ever heard i was raised in the south so i have my south drawl mixed with french, Brit, German, Japanese etc but you can still tell i southern ever if you don't know what i am saying
Tim Armstrong from Rancid lived in Brooklyn for a bit some years ago. He came back with an accent. Was pretty funny. "I'm from Boyekeley". It wasn't fake though. Lint is his own man and I think a lot of us from Cali try to lose any semblance of the "dude, bra" etc. Tim is a total sweetheart btw.

I pick up accents of the music I'm listening to when I sing along with it, but only when I'm listening to it. For some reason I can't mimic the accents when I sing without the music and it sounds horrible. XP
Which accents? You could learn to do that. It would usually just amount to nasal intones and where you place your tongue. Would depend if it was in your register too.Quote:

She basically told me I was full of shit and she didn't have a Southern accent...But, oh yeah...She did.
Back in my heyday of SF clubbing there was this girl named Samay that claimed to be From England and had the accent, but when my sister met her she said it was a fake. I trust my sister due to her years of studding in Sheffield! Girl was a nut and from what I heard was a dirty dirty girl, and not in a good way.
I always do fake accents, all day at work just for fun to make people laugh... I am completely fake. I don't even have a normal speaking voice anymore. My roots are sort of New England, Glenn Close, Grace Kelly clipped English, then I do a great Natzi bitch accent, and well, Briish of course, I totally do that, then southern accent when I am being clever... I have no identity anymore, I come from a planet that is sort of like Europe, but not... It's a blonde planet.
I think I will have another beer now... La la la la.....
haha yah I like to do accents too. "Slavic" one is best. Am half decent at a scottish accent (much harder though).Quote:
