British accent on a tall good looking guy is VERY sexy.  And if he's wearing that certain cologne, then OMG OMG.....yummy.  

  Australian isn't that bad either.  

  I don't often get the chance to hear accents so when I do, it's absolutely a treat.

Yours and yours alone, Gopher baby.

  I actually think Canadian accent is quite sexy.

Aussie accent sexy??? I beg to differ. They're a tad crude unless it comes from a decent looking bloke like Hugh Jackson.

I've got two voices. Don't like one of them though the southern one is just stupid.

Really?  Crude?  I guess that I haven't been around them for long to really think about it.

  When I was in the UK, I never really liked their accents.  I found some people to be so harsh.  I just like accents when the guys have lived in Canada and their accents mix with ours.  Hmmm, I hope that made some sense.

Agreed, a Canadian-British accent is wonderful, after that I'll go for French.

Ah look, SD has two voices in his head. *snicker snicker snicker*

  I used to like the French accent until I visited France and got.... 'snubbed' by the locals.

  English accents are lovely though. Very cultured and refined.

  The one accent I can't understand though is the Cockney (spelling?) accent. My uncle speaks with that and I had to listen really, really hard.

Italian isn't all that bad either, I think.

I find Cockney pretty hard going too, but have you ever heard Geordie (Newcastle area), it's terrific.

I dislike the Cockney accent as well.  Too harsh for my liking and tastes.  Two thumbs down!  

Lise

Hmm.... never heard of Georgie.... that's new for me. I bypass Newcastle area, should have stopped there for a visit. I think the industrial landscape put me off.

  I gotta run, guys. Take care. *gone in a flash of bygone panties*

Yes, I work with many people from all over the UK. I have lots of trouble with people with cockney and jordie accents. (wait is the way you spelled it geordie they way to spell it? Most of the UK peoples I worked with spelled it the way I did).

  That being said I have a funny story. I joined a vessel and met a guy onboard with a pure Irish accent, most everyone onboard and myself thought he was Irish, until he told us he was east coast canadian so we all assumed he had recently immigrated. A month later we found out he didnt, he was born and raised on one of the smaller island communities that still has the perfect Irish accent along with their customs. I found that amazing.

 I think Japanese/Chinese/Cambodian accents are very sexy. Same with Thai and Vietnamese.
 
The real trouble with reality is that there's no background music.

For sexy-ness: I am with Merovingian.

It's got to be French (France) with all the proper tonalities.
