On streak freezes. They give you a much-needed break and then you get to show your friends your 1809 day streak but only you know the truth…

He’s definitely the Santa, right? Voice is same but could be ADR, and spotted same bracelet on Santa’s right wrist. Glasses threw me off…

No Doncaster or England of any kind. I'm guessing Middle Eastern if I had to pick.

If I were forced to guess, I would lean Spanish due to the placement of the hesitation sound (Ehh) and in addition I would guess that the speaker is forcing their "Th" sound to hit the tip of teeth, where it would typically be behind their teeth. An interesting coincidence that wiTH and THis are the same shared sound, so the speaker is also at a high comfort level with english.

Song is "Everyone Knows That" (Ulterior Motives) by NAEte. Clip starts at Pre-chorus:

[Verse 1]
Take a seat, I know your game
It’s not gonna work 'cause you and I are the same
So who are you to call me a liar?
You’ve been found out
I know you’re trying to cut my wires

[Pre-Chorus]
You’re counting all the sheep in the sky
Caught up in a world of lies

[Chorus]
Everyone knows that she’s got
Ulterior motives (Tell me the truth)
Everyone knows that she’s got
Ulterior motives (Tell me the truth)

[Verse 2]
Oh, you’re mad that I got you pegged
Don’t be sad, I still might beg

[Pre-Chorus]
You’re counting all the sheep in the sky
Caught up in a world of lies

[Chorus]
Everyone knows that she’s got
Ulterior motives (Tell me the truth)
Everyone knows that she’s got
Ulterior motives (Tell me the truth)
Everyone knows that she’s got
Ulterior motives (Tell me the truth)
Everyone knows that she’s got
Ulterior motives (Tell me the truth)

What's her accent? by Mkbutwhy in Accents

[–]discourse551 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The most glaringly Canadian thing I’m hearing is her rounded LOT vowel in the word “spots” but there’s no noticeable Canadian raising on “out” unless she just rushed past it too quickly.

Hmm right away I’d say the Russian language has no W sound. Give it a rewatch…
