I already knew about Rod Temperton (RIP)’s Britishness – but there have been times when you hear a song that must, surely, be a Californian band strummin’ and harmonizin’ in the summer breeze. This is the example that still socks me in the eye. This is a New Zealand band. It’s like finding out that John “Cougar!” Mellencamp is from Stevenage.
I know that many singers fake the US accent but everything about this BreaksCo-op song screams America. There are others. What you waitin’…what you waitin’ for?
