I hope you enjoy it and find it interesting. So let’s continue and in this part, which is part 2 I’m going to continue to explore this whole area by singing some songs in different accents and by listening to some samples of music. In part 1 I answer the question in some detail and also point out some features of what I’m calling the American Singing Accent, including things like the way certain words which I pronounce with diphthongs (that’s double vowel sounds) become ‘flattened’ to single long vowel sounds, like in the words I, find, time, mine in the line “I need to find my time to get what’s mine”. It’s a mix of language, identity, music and phonology. But there are also plenty of examples of British singers singing in British accents. It’s all about the conventions of modern pop music which has its roots in the USA. In part 1 I started answering a question from a listener, and the question is “Why do British people sound American when they sing?” It’s actually a bit complicated. Part 1 contains loads of context and details which I think you should hear before listening to this. Seems obvious, doesn’t it, but I just want to make it clear.

Don’t listen to this, until you’ve heard part 1. This is episode 658 and it’s part 2 of a double episode. So I hope that you are not having too much of a bad time because of the coronavirus, or perhaps I should say “I trust that you are managing to maintain your working routines effectively in the context of the current situation regarding covid-19.” So the thing I saw on Twitter was just a little meme about how in normal English we say “because of the coronavirus” but in formal writing (like in a work email) we have to dress that up in more fancy language, like “due to the ongoing situation regarding covid-19”. If you follow me on Twitter you might have seen that. I saw something on Twitter which made me laugh and I retweeted it. You have to acknowledge the fact that everyone’s struggling, or you have to explain that things are perhaps not happening normally because of the coronavirus and there are various ways of saying it – both informal and formal, perhaps in a work email or something. It’s necessary to say that isn’t it these days. I hope you’re doing ok out there in podcastland during this difficult period.
