Does anybody else find it weird that whenever you have a voice over, be it satnav, Bluetooth speakers, promotional videos (of European companies!), etc. they almost always have American accents? Even before the whole buy European movement took off I found this weird, especially since British or Irish accents are way nicer to listen to in my opinion.
Not at all, for southern US think country music ala Garth Brooks, although most of the singers fake their accent. There are some New England dialects that have some similarities to UK English.
