In English, I hate Scouse but curiously love Scottish and Southern American accents.
My ears bleed the most when I hear native-English speakers attempting to speak French.

Not just you! I'm no fan of Spanish either. If it was spoken more like Italian, then it would be beautiful, but it's spoken with those various awful accents >.> I have found zero accent where every speaker (well, most) doesn't sound bad. It's beauty is only apparent only in a certain few speakers, and even sung it's not necessarily that great.

I have always noticed in most countries/languages it always seems like people make fun of the "southern" accent or region.
