British English Spotted

I was reading a post at a Rush message board, and the British English shone through.

"Not often do I have something truly new to say on the subject of this favourite rock band of mine, but here goes. It was marvellous, and far from wishing to spoil anyone's fun and tell you which songs they played..."

And then later, he used "ye."

I guess sometimes there's no need to hear the British accent, just read the words.
