At first I just liked Wesley because I thought his music was goofy weird and funny, but the more I listened the more I came to appreciate he was a person genuinely with music in him, that he had to get out, and god love him for expressing himself, RIP

Vonroy: Gillian Anderson is British!
Jim the Poet:
↳ Vonroy @5:03

Onion: I am from texas and all americans imitating a british accent sound totally legit to me.
Jim the Poet:
↳ chinn @5:02
It sounds a little too upper class to meVonroy: A little late-60s John Peel perhaps?
chinn:
↳ Jim the Poet @5:05
Yes, like you have a stateroom on the QE2High_Quality_Fun: one key to good British accent is ending the sentence with question words
You like music, do you?
that's good music, isn't it?
Vonroy: And you begin each sentence with an apology

Possibly the dude who reads the BBC World Service ReportHigh_Quality_Fun: my favorite is the way they say aluminum - if you master saying aluminum, you're in there like swimwear
Vonroy: Alumin 'i' um
Jim the Poet: I think a very fancy British accent is at cross-purposes for my future intentions entirely
High_Quality_Fun: my second favorite is they don't have carry out - they have takeaways
You eat a lot of takeaways, do you?
Vonroy: I'm sorry, but you eat a lot of takeaways in aluminium trays, do you? None more Brit
High_Quality_Fun:
↳ Vonroy @5:14
that's top o' the food chain, but best start with baby steps - need to "shedule" time for that, don't wechinn:
↳ Song: "Free Wheeling" by "Le Ren"
That's quite an album cover. Nice tune, though.Jim the Poet: My apologies to any British people listening to the archives in the future for my crimes against your accents
