Accent Challenge! I didn't watch i't before posting, keeping it true and accurate to me. (For better or worse). The total disconnect from what I hear versus what everyone else hears is, I suspect, why I'll never be able to sing.
And the questions for anyone that wishes to try this out for themselves.

- Where you're from.
- Pronounce the following words: Aunt, Roof, Route, Theater, Iron, Salmon, Caramel, Fire, Water, New Orleans, Pecan, Both, Again, Probably, Alabama, Lawyer, Coupon, Mayonnaise, Pajamas, Caught, Naturally, Aluminium, GIF, Tumblr, Crackerjack, Doorknob, Envelope, GPOY.
- What is it called when you throw toilet paper on a house?
- What is a bubbly carbonated drink called?

- Do you know anyone on SG in real life?
- End audio post by saying any THREE words you want.
Yeah. When I sing, to me it sounds like what I'm supposed to be singing... but nobody else can recognize it.
The video was fun. Tempted to do one.
