That's something interesting to find out. I was on Wikipedia the other night in the British accent section, it was kinda cool to read. I do impersonations of the accents, but it's always such a mix of what I've heard, I think it's great how people from different regions have such distinct accents.
I definitely love the Northern accents then, the glossed-over stuff we hear here on the radio isn't exactly my cup of tea, I really like what the Arctic Monkeys put out though, I'm a big fan of their stuff. Does It Offend You, Yeah? too, they're my favorite music right now, not sure if they really count though for the amount of actual singing they do.
