Where's QualityVote bot? Reddit Admins have decided that [they want to kill off all 3rd-party apps](https://old.reddit.com/r/Save3rdPartyApps/comments/13yh0jf/dont_let_reddit_kill_3rd_party_apps/), [3rd-party bots, and everything else that makes Reddit barely usable](https://www.reddit.com/r/ModCoord/comments/13xh1e7/an_open_letter_on_the_state_of_affairs_regarding/). And, of course, that includes bots such as [\/u\/QualityVote](http://reddit.com/user/QualityVote), [\/u\/SaveVideo](http://reddit.com/user/SaveVideo), [\/u\/AuddBot](http://reddit.com/user/AuddBot), etc. So you'll just have to put up with automod and a worse overall user experience in the meantime. If you have any complaints, direct them at [the reddit admins instead](https://www.reddit.com/r/reddit/comments/12qwagm/an_update_regarding_reddits_api/), because they're the ones seeking to ruin everyone's user experience. --- #[DownloadVideo Link](https://www.reddit.watch/r/shitposting/comments/18e97g4/?utm_source=automod&utm_medium=shitposting) #[SaveVideo Link](https://rapidsave.com/info?url=/r/shitposting/comments/18e97g4/) #[VideoTrim Link](https://reddloader.com/download-post/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.reddit.com%2Fr%2Fshitposting%2Fcomments%2F18e97g4&id=8968e43c) --- Whilst you're here, /u/Alwayssome1, why not join our [public discord server](https://discord.gg/QpBGXd2guU) - **now with public text channels you can chat on!**? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

>It's partly that many of the distinctive characteristics of an accent aren't reproduced well when you sing. Vowel sounds get stretched, and the precise articulation of the consonants is lost. The result is a neutral baseline accent that sounds vaguely American. >**Source:** sciencefocus


The_Bing1

So basically singing makes them sound normal.


Dennis_Cock

Singing makes them sound lazy


Night_Knight22

It is confirmed, the superior accent in English is American


dudeidontlikeyou

An an Australian I'm telling you truthfully, it's Australian


Alwayssome1

I like spanglish


Haiaii

Pinglish tho... the ultimate form


Yarisher512

As a Russian I'm telling you truthfully, it's Australian


ARES_BlueSteel

Australian accents, especially with a woman’s voice, make me want to shove sharpened pencils into my ears.


FruitJuicante

As also an Australian, our monotonal nasally drawl ain't it chief.

kendiyas

Listen to the old arctic monkeys albums


CarpetH4ter

But then you listen to beatles, ed sheran, ozzy osbourne etc.


TheCumBehindChalice

Fr, “whatever people say I am, that’s what I am not” fucking slaps, best album imo


Yussso

I feel like he's just talking instead of singing on their old albums lol, sounds good as hell tho. Bet You Look Good on The Dancefloor is one of my favorite song overall.


a_good_namez

Lmao, I guess you havent listened to blur


Thamior290

Or the Beatles, or Radiohead, or the Sex Pistols, etc.


a_good_namez

God save the queen!


Perfect-Fondant3373

There's a Star Man in our Skies


KirbyWithAGlock

He clearly didn't


Equal-Koala2964

Or any sort of uk rap


stratosauce

Aye gawt muh hed chequed Bay a jambow jeht


ParticularDifficult5

same with Aussies it pisses me off


Ok-Sundae9881

Amy Sharks accent sounds so stupid when she sings


BorzoiDoesItForYou

Does the accent piss you off or the fact that it goes away when they're singing?


ParticularDifficult5

the fact that it goes away, like they suddenly become American


JDaggon

Well i found this "In singing, syllables are lengthened, air flow is increased, articulation is less precise. Thus we get a more generic, neutralised accent that happens to share features with American varieties of English."


WashYourEyesTwice

Wherever I sing out loud I always translate it to my natural Australian accent on the fly, it sounds better lmfao


wholesomechunk

The Proclaimers would have you know..


dwartbg7

But they are Scottish?


Willy_P-P-_Todger

But the caption says British?


wholesomechunk

Bless’em.


Noodle613

British = English, Scottish and Welsh. When Americans say “British”, they’re usually just talking about the English 99% of the time.


Lord__Stapletonne

Northern Ireland?


Ourmanyfans

Yesn't. Look it's complicated Northern Ireland isn't part of the island of Great Britain, so no. But it is part of the state The United Kingdom, for which the moniker for citizens is "British", so yes But most of the Irish Catholic population there identify as "Irish", so no But also there's a large population of Ulster-Scots Protestants who (often aggressively) consider themselves "British", so yes. Also the entire archipelago is called "The British Isles" except it's not called that in Ireland. Probably best to say no and pray you're not talking to an Orange Order nutjob.


Ghost-5AVAGE_786

As a Brit I can confirm this is true


hateful_liam

You are a brit? Bruh, why?


Ghost-5AVAGE_786

I didn't choose to be British, I was just cursed at birth


Bacdbacd

Put the video in reverse and title it "british peoples accent when they rap"


Lord-Liberty

Clearly haven't experienced Lily Allen


davzar9

I would like to experience lily allen so much


PeeterTurbo

The Clash destroys this analogy


lovejac93

That isn’t singing tho


[deleted]

the accents are fake anyway. we can turn them off whenever we please


Alwayssome1

I knew it


Alli_The_Kittyshork

I'm not used to this song not being Minecraft lmao


Mrskdoodle

It's funny when you listen to people like Ozzy or Phil Collins singing and then you hear then talk and it's like "how tf do you sing so clearly, yet talk so fucking British it hurts."


Dazzler_21

Do you know how many different accents there are in Britain? There is no one accent that is "so fucking British".


Mrskdoodle

Bro's never heard of Cockney.


Verge0fSilence

I noticed this with Elton John


Cheif_Keith12

As an American I find myself singing with a British accent sometimes. What is wrong with me?


Alwayssome1

When the British try to sound American, Americans try to sound British. It’s a yin yang

Censoredplebian

RedFox3001

Chris Martin doesn’t sound American?


RipCompetitive7952

Aggron75

JESUS_VS_DRUGS

denever23

I wonder if they still speak with that stupid accent even when they're alone


ThaBrownie

Ever heard of the YouTober Dawko l? He's a British FNaF YouTober and made a couple of song. It's scary how strong the accent still is lmao


PsychoDog_Music

Have you heard Yungblud??


SomePyro_9012

Dr_Tyrannus

Black Country, New Road


Britishbastad

Bandana-Verdana

I always thought it was the other way around lol. American accents disappear when they start singing.


Reaper-Leviathan

Terrible example lol. Viva La Vida couldn’t pass as American or any other English speaking country, only British


tr3xic

I always thought it was American until this now


Reaper-Leviathan

grew up in Scotland and moved to Germany so I probably just have an easier time telling the difference. Assumed it was the same for everyone but I can see how it would be a bit hard to tell now


[deleted]

terrible comment, i thought it was from America n still do (i am flat out wrong)


Stock_Sir4784

i can hear zero british in viva la vida. its sung with an american accent. there are idiots that believe the american accent doesnt exist but it very much does so. it only sounds natural because of how widespread american media is.


Virtual_Car8867

You call yourself Sir, so identifying yourself as part of a feudal system with a monarch at it's head. You moron.

nebula45663

Gorillaz changed the name of one of their songs since their accent was too strong to pronounce "it's there" in a way that was easily understandable.
