In English,an educated Canadian or Irish accent tops the table.
Personally I love a female Polish accent, gets me all weak-kneeded-LOL. |

I know it's kind of lame for an American to pick another American accent, but I really like a classy Georgian accent. As for non-American, French and Spanish would be my two favorite.

In Braveheart, Mel Gibson's childhood friend threatens he'll squash Mel like a wooorrrrum. Love that line. Doesn't look good written.
Other favorite lines: the scene where Mel & his beloved say they'll see each other in the morrow. It looks like they're trying not to laugh in that scene.

I like hearing Irish accents as long as the accent isn't very thick. A posh upper class ("Queen's English) British accent is also nice.
I like certain Southern accents - like Julia Sugarbaker (Dixie Carter) on Designing Women.

Thick southern drawl, like Paula Deen
I like any accent, with one exception, Boston |

My accent is American midwest. My husband's is west Scotland. But I'd have to say my favourite is Irish (couldn't pinpoint what part). I suppose if I lived in Ireland and I heard it all the time it would stop being my favourite, just as a Scottish accent has moved to second place since I hear it all the time.
Love a kiwi accent as well.

Yorkshire (England), Scottish, Coastal Southern, South African (more interesting and slightly comical, no offence, than nice).
I'll go against the tide...I find Spanish accented English decidedly UNsexy on women (better on men). French (accent and language) is far sexier for a woman imo.
