Please don’t answer if you’re an American and only respond if you know the answer

What do American accents sound like to people from other countries? Do we sound
"hard"? For instance, the British accent sounds so lovely & sophisticated, the French accent sounds so smooth & romantic.
Any way to describe what we sound like?
Thanks!

As a British woman we love the American accent, it sounds very specific. The American “R” is the most prominent feature of the American accent for me, and it makes it impossible to confuse American English with any other world’s language even for those who does not understand it.
