Also, a beautiful example of stressed schwa by Natalie Dormer in
Games of Thrones:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0iDuyyGYWo&t=16s
"Do you want to be a queen?" -- "No. I want to be THUH queen."
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UVpFf2DmFSMIt's All Over Now, the Rolling Stones
"Because I used to love her, but it's all over now."
That "but" is rather long, almost stressed. Sounds like a shwa? It
strikes me as imitated American, perhaps a Texan accent or something
like that? But other traits are rather more like London English.
Of course the Stones are a British band, but in those days, 1966, it
was fashionable for some famous band to try to sound American. The
Beatles sometimes did that too.
