A girl, who I believe *may* be named Amy and might be 25 years old (but don't quote me on that), does a pretty impressive job at cycling through different accents from around the world. I was particularly impressed that she got the nuances down between Dublin and Belfast Irish accents, but I couldn't really tell the difference between Sydney and New Zealand.

It is great, and she has very pretty eyes and is beautiful.

Wow, that was great. I think the "aussie true blue" was supposed to be the state of Queensland. My in-laws talk like that.

she didn't quite capture all of the accents, but she wasn't bad either.

"I couldn't really tell the difference between Sydney and New Zealand."

There's an entire Flight of the Conchords episode based on that.

"Brit?"
"No, it's Bret."
"Brit?"
"Bret."

Imagine 'being' with her in the biblical sense... every night for three weeks it'd be like being with a different woman. Although all of them would be called Amy Walker and would be 25... but still, a bit of spice.

I was impressed to see her get the differences between the multiple Aussie and New Zealand accents on the money

And was anyone else completely dazzled by the dayglow teeth?

... her eyes weirded me out. Made me think of Will Ferrell... 'quick, staring contest, me and you... you win, you always do'

I liked her Seattle accent. Some of her other U.S. accents were a bit ... like caricatures? well, one man's opinion.

What about South Africa? I have trouble telling when someone is from South Africa or England sometimes... its embarrassing...

I honestly can't tell which, if any, is her real accent. Very talented, this one.

It's funny how when she got to her California accent I immediately caught myself thinking, "Huh. She's not even using an accent for this one." I wonder if everyone else whose accent she covered had the same thought.

As Farhad said via playlist addition, this is all kinds of awesome.

The Moscow accent was a total caricature though... but still awesome.

her Brooklyn is way off-her Texas is , "which part?", and ya Brits gotta know that at least 2 of those 3 girls from London did not all grow up in London.....
To the untrained ear, her affectations are so convincing due to her confidence, delivery, and good looks, and because most of the listeners have never been too far outside of a few hundred miles radius of where they grew up....
Great stuff....

her LA was good...I couldn't hear any accent. Other than that, I would've liked to hear her do a general uneducated south accent.

As a guy from Toronto, i wasn't convinced by that accent.. it was a little bit of a "canada" archetype.

I as a german have to say that the german accent wasnt very well done either.

Then maybe she is from California (or any other part of the US with the same "lack of accent").

Her Texas accent sounded like more of a George W. Bush impression. George by the way doesn't talk like a Texan. He talks like a slow kid in a special Junior High.

Her Texas sounds more like West Virginia to me. Pretty spot on, regardless.

Very effective self promotion. The girl also seems a bit nuts (aka artist) after looking at her info.

I agree with the above...the LA accent sounded the best to me.

So any guesses on which one is her real accent?

@uhohzombies

One of the main difference between Aussie and NZ is NZ's pronunciation of "six" sounds a bit like "sex". That's why she used 26 instead of 25 I recon.

She pronounced "Russia" wrong, whenever I hear a russian saying it, it sounds more like "MOTHERLAND!"

I definitely noticed the Cali accent. Being from Ontario (Ottawa and Toronto), the Toronto accent seemed very "American caricaturing Canadian." I've found that the Ontario accents tend to sound really similar to her Seattle (where to me it sounded as though she was accent-less)

That's an awful Dublin accent. No one speaks like that! I think she's getting her reference material from the recent Heroes episodes or Far And Away.

Yup, her Seattle accent was not noticeable to me (I live in Ottawa, grew up in Vancouver). But the Toronto accent was a bit weird.
Loved the transatlantic accent!

accents of non-English speakers (e.g. Italian-English, German-English, French-English, Czech-English, Russian-English) are always exaggerated.

Funny how
if you want to speak to the world, you have to speak like your audience

a more symmetrical *ollywood face helps too

She would have blown me away if she included a Cajun accent, like a Bayou Lafourche accent found in places such as Larose or Cutoff. lol.

Her Charleston accent is ridiculous as well. It sounds as if it's modeled on Scarlett O'Hara.

Yeah, the common accent in Charleston doesn't sound remotely like this one. It sounds more Hollywood.

There is another Charleston accent that's a bit more aristocratic. Jessica Tandy's accent in Driving Miss Daisy is a close approximate. She should rent that movie and watch it a bit.
