Actually, yes. I don't tend to hear a great deal of accents in singing, from either side of the Atlantic. Depends on who it is and their style, of course.

Edit: And Americans do not butcher the language. Don't make me get all Bill Bryson on you. If you really want to debate the various merits of the vast numbers of words America has given us, weighed up against the fact that they spell some things differently, then be my guest.
