re: Europeans rate the American accents

Generally speaking (no pun intended) from my time at Auburn I found that the Southern Alabama accent was generally much better than northern. Huntsville, Decatur, Florence, etc. had the more annoying as hell and higher pitch. Montgomery and south especially Mobile generally has closer to the lower pitch like most of south Georgia.

Agree. I grew up in Montgomery and now live in the Huntsville area. The south Alabama accent is a little more pleasing to the ear. North Alabama still great compared to some parts of western North Carolina though.
