First off, there is no language called "American", but I assume you mean "English".

Second, there is no objective measurement of how pleasing a language sounds to someone. Just like people you find attractive, other people might not. ;) For example, I love the sound of Brazilian Portuguese, which on language forums receives hatred from most members. Lots of people say French is romantic or whatever, but I find it gross and annoying, the "standard" dialect of France at least.
