In the end, I rambled anyway .___.
So yeah, voice/video post. Ain't that fun? You may have to turn your volume up, it's quiet.
I'm sorry if I didn't include your suggestion! I had 15 minutes of film and Youtube would only take 10 minute long things (though even with the cuts it ended up with 11mins...)
I had quite a bit of fun with this.

Wales himself is kinda impressive, in that he managed to live in a house with England, Scotland and the Irelands without jumping off a cliff or something... I have thought waay too much about this orz
I enjoyed the post, you did a great job!:D

Why was he called "of Arabia" then?Yeah, the more you think about it, the more badass Welsh people there are in the world.... Maybe it's just like because the English have the same attitude towards the Welsh accent as the Americans have towards the Canadian accent. "Awwwww you're from Wales/Canada!"He's a braver man than I, I'll tell you that. XDDD Patience of a saint that one.
Thank you! \o/

Your voice is so cute omg. Omg so cute. I don't know all of my national anthem either.
D. Grayman is awesome. <3 ... Lol persecuted Christians. That seems to be a recurring theme in Japanese historical manga and anime.
Nursery rhymes are so violent! It's a little disturbing in retrospect.
YEAH... WELL... your mother smells of elderberries. I kind of desire a chav meeting a gangster now. :|a

I-I sound really different when recorded than I do IRL. Like, way more posh. I think my accent sharpens when I know I'm being watched >>
The latest storyline's a bit confusing though. Wtf. Well the "persecuted christians" thing was an actual historical fact in Japan, since Christianity taught that everyone would be judged for their deeds, while in Japanese culture at the time everyone was judged by the status they attained in life. The Lords of the land were not pleased with the concept of potentially burning in hell with common peasants.
I was thinking on that the other day. No wonder society is fucked up when we skip around in circles as children singing about the plague.
It would end quickly, because the chav has no self-preservation instincts and the gangster has a gun.

Actually, your speech pattern in the vid reminded me a bit of Eddie Izzard's, especially when you spoke about Wales. THAT'S A COMPLIMENT! As in a gold-medal rating one. E.I is my fave comedian ever. Seeing him live this month, EEEEEE...!!!
Um, excuse me whilst I just re-insert my brain...
Anyway, you do accents a million times better than I do... It's really wierd, because I CANNOT do ANY accent deliberately (apparently my Scottish one sounds Jamaican, whilst my Jamaican sounds Swedish... And I've only ever heard two people speak with Swedish accents, as oppsoed to having listnd to Bob Marley and Billy Connolly all my life...). Unless you do the old trick of "beer can" in an English accent sounding like "bacon" in Jamaican... which is cheating.
On the other hand, if I hang around with absoloutely anyone who has an accent different to mine (Herts & Essex, incidentally) for more than about 20 mins, I WILL speak like them for the rest oif the day. It's bizarre - when I was six, I spoke with an American accent for two months for no apparent reason (I blame the TV) and spoke English with a French accent whilst in Belgium as I was crap at French. Yet my French accent whilst speaking French was actually praised by a Frenchman. WTF.
As for Welsh accents, I can't imagine them being spoken without visualising the speaker as grinning and/or giggling a lot - The most experience I've had with the accent were two Welsh teachers and Eddie Izzard's imitations and all three were very smiley when speaking. So the Welsh accent equates with cheerfulness in my mind. Very bad stereotypical me.
Ohh, the National Anthem... well, I'm going with both Eddie Izzard and Billy Connolly on this. I HATE IT. I HATE ALL FOUR OF THEM. I love the rest of Britain's ones, but all of dear old England's just suck in my opinion. "God, Monarch, God, Monarch". Nothing whatsover about the people, the land or the history, except a bit of anti-Scottish cack. Even when singing, England and Scotland still can't get on!
Gaaah... but I swear, Charles cnages it to 'Jerusalem' when he comes to the throne, I may leave the country. Just... Ugh. Credit where it's due to Blake as a poet, but... Well once again, see Eddie Izzard.
I thought I might write a new one to make myself feel better... My friend thought I was gonna SING it. Uh, no. Not good. She viewed my potetial performance as a translation to "rape it, kill it and dance on the remains". Well, she wouldn't be far off, but it would be very little worse off for that in my opinion.
Liked your singing, though!
IMPORTANT!
As a fellow manga/anime addict and Heta-holic, will you be atteding the London MCM Expo this October? It's a great hotspot for Heta-holics - I'm cosplaying Pirate England.

Are you aware of how adorable you are? Because, uh, you are. It took me like a full minute to get over it.
And chav (did I spell that right?) arguments sound exactly like black/ghetto arguments except in a weird type of British accent. Just so you know. And I really really wanna see an argument involving somebody from the hood and a chav now >.
