"Out of the twelve dishes on the table eleven are made with/from herring. The one that isn't is salmon paté."

Or, there's my take on a Swedish band's song, admittedly sung in English, with largely Polish accents:

I think there is another group called BABA that does ABBA music. Technically, though, they are not an ABBA tribute band. BABA stands for Bjorn Again Bjorn Again and BABA is a tribute band to the group Bjorn Again, which is an ABBA tribute band. Bjorn Again do pretty good Swedish accents in interviews. It was from the Agnethe Fallskjold equivalent on the BBC that I heard about BABA, and she had to make it clear: "It is trrrue vot I em tellink you now."

Well, we aren't a band, I just made the name up for that one night performance to celebrate my 50th in style. Hence the lack of professionalism which was made up by the great fun we had performing ( especially during rehearsals, they were a scream!).

I was supposed to teach my friends the lyrics in English and after practicing with them for a few weeks, the result was not them singing with my RP accent, but me singing with their Polish accent!
