Do you ever notice how when you listen to a British pop or rock band (hello, Beatles!), they don’t appear to have an accent? What’s up with that?
Adele doesn’t have an accent when she sings (or at least, almost).
In fact… usually, it’s not even clear where the person is from just from listening to their music.
While American culture, including the media, movies, and music, tends to be one of the biggest pillars across the globe, this might not exactly be the reason why singers tend to all sound like they have one accent.
Get this: Accents become more neutralized when you sing because words and vocal pitches tend to be more drawn out!
In many ways, this actually CANCELS out accents and intonations of words.
