    I'm flattered that your'e developing an english (NOT 'british' there's no such thing;)) accent, and I too, bop along to the songs, as they do seem to have some bizzare euphoric sense of a natural high about them, so you can feel spaced out whilst listening to them without the drugs!

    one small thing: Please don't type 'like' in the middle of sentences, it makes you sound obnoxious and arrogant, and also as if you are a kid, so drop the likes, and keep on working the accent brother from across the pond!

    and by the way, this game has changed me too, I am lot more confident no when it comes to singing.

    Yeah! the games has inspired me to play the guitar and start a band with my other friends,and oddly enough our first song we were gonna perform for the shcool was In My Life
    but first we were gonna do Here Comes The Sun since i knew how to play it,but we needed a more simplier song
    (and imagirl by the way lol,i meant to put that in my sig.)

    I find that doing the little Paul McCartney bop while playing bass and singing at the same time really makes it more enjoyable.

    I don't need to put on an English accent to sing, I have one already.

    However, on some, like I Am The Walrus, I do find myself slipping into a Liverpudlian twang. It's really weird.

    I've been listening to British bands since I was 7. I've never spoken with an English accent, but I've always sang with one (Although on a lulzworthy, less topic-related note; my babysitter had a Jamaican speaking accent so I picked it up and it followed me all the way to 5th grade; imagine a nerdy, scrawny white kid talking like that. Haha).

    As far as 'moving' to the music, it's been a habit I've had because I was a band geek in high school so I was trained to 'keep time' by 'bopping' with my ankle. But when I play Beatles Rock Band I DO tend to swing back and forth.. I thought I was the only one who did that.

    I feel a lot less alone now xD;

    Wow. I thought I was the only one! I find I have developed quite the British accent while singing as well. My next task is to try the Bass left-handed. I also move to the music quite a bit as well.

    even though I have only played the game three times ( I can't afford it or the instruments as I'm practically bankrupt :o) I found myself tapping my right foot the the beat of the song when I sang, and ever since, the foot tapping has stuck! I do it when i'm listening to nearly any beatles song,

    I'm a keyboard/piabo man myself, and even then it's just smashing the keys until something slightly melodical comes out,
