He's not done it in years, but I don't see how he can *completely* lose his upper range, being such a good singer.

After surgery years back to get rid of polyps on his vocal chords, he lost his ability to hit his falsetto. This was NOT a mistake on the part of the surgery, simply the effect of the polyps in the first place. It toughened his vocal chords a little bit permanently, and brought his voice to it's current depth.
However, if you've read or seen interviews with him since the surgery, you'll see that he has no regrets in losing the falsetto. He feels that it's actually been like getting a new instrument, and has allowed him to make his music creation fresh as he has a relatively 'new' range to sing in that he didn't have before.
It's why a lot of his newest stuff is much more deep blues, ballads, and a little more groove instead of pop. He admitted that listening to his falsetto work now, he feels he sounded like a little kid. I disagree, as I just feel it was a phase of his career.
Either way, hope this helped!

It's very possible to learn to sing well. You just need to know the right methods. Learn here https://tr.im/sbOce
Singing teachers will cost money and can be expensive so they're not for everyone. Singing can be learned so it's not an "either you have it or you don't" kind of thing.
Whether you sound like crap or you're decent, I recommend this singing course. It's one of the best methods to learn to sing well in a short amount of time. It's all about using efficient techniques that work.

I have a recent 4 disc DVD of him and he does it for a note or two occasionally, but for singing whole bars of falsetto, no.
he also explains in a recent interview that he doesn't sing most of his older songs in the same key. He's arranged them in a lower key so he can still hit the higher notes in the song.
But don't fault him for that. To learn all the piano arrangements in another key takes a lot of talent.

Not really- British singers tend to have a hint of an American accents and it's only a hansful like the ones that you have mentioned that sing with a full on British accent :)
