I'm from south-east England and all those words rhyme. Whether they scan or not is a different matter ;)

The hills are alive with the sound of a spontaneous musical number. Those are always fun.

(And Millie's theory is an fun one!); have made an official statement.[/url]

All those words rhyme to me too (and I'm not from America or Englnad).

I like the utter randomness of the song. If Millie had picked a word that has a lot of similar rhymes she could have made more sense - and who'd want that?t intended, it just happened that way.

The Kinky Turtle had a cartoon in which he was mangling the words to about a dozen songs. One went something like this: "To every king, burn, churn, yearn/There is a skiing, earn, learn, spurn...."

I recorded myself reading out Millie's poem/song, so you can hear how different they actually sound to me. ;)

A voiceover bloke. A bloke who does voiceovers. You have the voice for it :)

I know what you meant by "voiceover bloke", I was just wondering why you came to such a conclusion. (And which kind of voiceover are we talking about here: newsanchor, nature show, storyteller ...)

Your voice clip sounded to me like those people on BBC Radio 7 who do storytelling.

It'd be good for a nature show too, as it's all quiet and peaceful.

I second that. And Codecat sounds like an Evil Henchman or something.

You kind of remind me of a radio show host, like Danny Finkleman, oddly enough.
Who's that?
