I Love British Music, But Why Don't They Sing With an Accent?

I gotta admit, I definitely have a thing for British bands and singers. Think the Beatles, Coldplay, Keane, Adele, One Direction, etc.-- way better than most American musicians. The British are passionate about music, and not just in it for the money or fame. Their song lyrics are just that-- lyrical, not just stupid words put to music (ex. Set Fire to the Rain vs. Friday or That's What Makes You Beautiful vs. Baby). Overall, I think British music just has much better quality than most American music.
One last thing. I just love the general look most British musicians choose to convey Take a look at these photos. See the difference? Yeah...
Linkin Park  (American)
Keane (British)
Adele (British)

Katy Perry (American)
