Why is it when british people sing they don't have their accents?
When British people sing, they often adopt a more neutral accent or tone because it can be easier to sing in a way that is universally understood by people from different regions. This helps to ensure the lyrics are clear and the emotion of the song can be conveyed effectively. Singers may also intentionally modify their accent to match the style of the music they are performing.

Why does everyone sing in an American accent?
People tend to sing in an American accent because many popular music genres, such as rock, pop, and hip-hop, originated in the United States.

Additionally, the American accent is considered neutral and easily understood by a global audience, making it a common choice for singers worldwide.
How do Europeans describe an American accent?
This is difficult to do - trust me. I have spoken to several of my teachers and instructors both in the US and in Europe. This was the most frequent answer : '... a typical American will speak slang. A.k.a using such words as nah, dude, duh in deep tones with exclamation points. Also, the British and Australian accents draw out much more on their vowels than the American accent does...' The American way of writing is the "original" form of writing in the English language. The Brits decided to add letters to words to sound more sophisticated and French due to being French was looked upon as being "royalty" in a sense. Then there is the much preferred way of saying that Americans have a '...downgraded form of the English language and their accent show their simple selfs...' I would suggest to talk to anyone who does not have English as their 1st language or is fluent in it to get a better opinion.

Why is Les Miserables sung with British accents?
Haha nice question. It sounds weird, but actually all singers with good teachers are *taught* to sing that way. That way, you don't sing with an obnoxious childish or country accent, because accents are always exaggerated when singing. Even if you don't think you sing that way, unless you sing with a bit of a British accent, your vowels tend to sound bad and/or cause you to go sharp or flat, ruining the piece. When I was in choir, the teachers called it "tall vowels," but they said it like: Towl vahwels. Make your mouth tall and in an O shape: that's what they had us do. :) No lie.
Why do british singers loose their accents when they sing?
Most singers at least partially "lose" their accents when they sing, especially classically trained singers. This is mainly because most singers are taught to use "pure vowels" when singing and to more precisely enunciate consonants, which makes their diction when singing clearer and easier to understand while reducing their dialect or accent.

Why do English singers sing with an American accent?
I think you'll find most singers (English and American) sing in a neutral accent. It sounds slightly British and slightly American.This is because:1.) They want to make their music more marketable over the pond. Every British artist wants to make to big in America, and every American artist wants to make it big in the UK and Europe, so if they sing in a more neutral accent their voice may be better for radio, etc.2.) The Beatles! The Beatles are from Liverpool, and whilst there is nothing wrong with the northern British accent, it has often been associated with folk music, which they obviously believed is "uncool", so they decided to develop a London/North American accent to sing in. Because the Beatles were so revolutionary, the trend to sing in a slightly North American accent caught on, and it became common.BUT there are singers who sing in a full British accent, like Lily Allen, Ellie Goulding, Eliza Doolittle, Katy B, Sophie Ellis Bextor, The Wanted etc.And nearly all British rappers rap in British accents - like Plan B, Tinie Tempah, Dizzee Rascal, Chipmunk, Tinchy Stryder, MIA and Aggro Santos.Accents are also about the melody of the sentances as a whole as well as pitch and stuff. When a person sings it becomes harder to recognise the accent, since the melody and the pitch both become a more active components, but you still can.A better question would be 'Why do English singers and American singers sound similar when they sing?' since both nationalities accents are affected when they sing, not just the English accent.You're just more accustomed to the American voice so you believe the English are imitating it. It's like when you're a child and you think that other countries have an accent and yours doesn't, because it's what your used to.AnswerOn most of their songs, the Beatles sang with a quite plain Scouse accent (this is quite noticable in songs with the word "singing" in them- the word is pronounced "sing-ging" (with hard"g"). No "put on" American accents except perhaps in some of their early work (many of which were covers of American songs).Modern British singers from the London area like Lily Allen have the quite noticable "Estuary" accent which derives in large part from Cockney (complete with dropped letters like the "tt" in "little").It's refeshing to note Australian singers like Missy Higgins singing with an Australian accent, while C&W singer Keith Urban sounds excatly like an American due no doubt to his intended market.There seems to be a latter-day trend towards vocalists performing with their own native accent rather than contrived "mid-Atlantic" accents although there will always be exceptions like Urban above (and lets face it, songs about yodelling tractors should be sung with an American accent).
