The Southern accent is music to my ears. It is the most beautiful of the English language accents, followed by Scottish and Jamaican.

Did you know that the Southern dialect is very closely related to the British? That explains why so many English actors are excellent at portraying our accent, while others mangle it.

There is the Southern Accent, which indeed is musical, and then there is that gap-tooth hic accent, which is like listening to soda cans being crushed.
