Why do British people never sound British when they sing?

Maybe it's because they almost always sing in the same language they normally speak.

Abba sang their songs in English (and Spanish on some versions of their albums), and while I couldn't tell that they were Swedish just from listening to them sing, I could tell that English wasn't their native language, because a bit of their native Swedish accent slipped through.
