It sounds so happy. Like Mr. Plague I could barely understand a word of it. It would probably take about 5 minutes of it to adjust my ears. Same problem with Australians, it's not the words so much as the intonation and rhythm that is different. I have the same problem, also, with American teenagers until I've listened for a few minutes. I love it, though.Jan Blawathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06697621979002856884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-46545187207214141812010-08-21T18:46:36.040+01:002010-08-21T18:46:36.040+01:00DAN Cawthorne I believe?

I have all the CD's too.<br /><br />However I find her "I'm from Yorkshire me!" shtick a little tiring after a while, especially since she is from an extremely middle class part of YorkshireDanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16967074836914863921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-54946951428296480242010-08-21T14:19:33.219+01:002010-08-21T14:19:33.219+01:00Belting, lad.

My other favourite band from your part of the world is Slow Club, also from Sheffield. I saw them when they played as a support act here in Sydney and they completely eclipsed the headline band.<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0J1ylrZKri8mutikonkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08013127024190330396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-19334971629330591142010-08-21T10:22:55.116+01:002010-08-21T10:22:55.116+01:00DAN Small world.

I have just booked tickets for her Sheffield City Hall concert in December.<br />MR BRAGUE Over here in England we have had to become accustomed to American accents in film and song over several decades so now you know a little of how we might feel about that. Kate's accent is more typical of how Yorkshire folk speak than say David Niven or John Cleese whose accents are stereotypically "English".Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-17319038018289777512010-08-20T21:59:54.997+01:002010-08-20T21:59:54.997+01:00I'm sure it's a lovely song and all, or a ...I'm sure it's a lovely song and all, or a humorous one, if that's what it's supposed to be, but these American ears couldn't pick up on many of the words, so I really couldn't say. The effect grew even worse when the young lady stopped singing and started talking.<br /><br />Sorry -- guess I'll never be a proper Yorkshireman. As long as we keep ourselves to the printed word, I'm okay.rhymeswithplaguehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10870439618129001633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-78560883626392729182010-08-20T18:40:06.907+01:002010-08-20T18:40:06.907+01:00I sort of knew Kate Rusby growing up.

I recollect watching Saturday morning TV round at her house when I was about 11 and she was there (she's about 3 years older than me so I doubt we had any meaningful interaction).<br /><br />My Dad later designed her first website (back when the internet was young)Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16967074836914863921noreply@blogger.com
