-Do you know this song? Do you like it? What about Simple Plan? What kind of information do you know about them? Have you got any of their records?

-Listen to one of their most successful songs:

Do you ever feel like breaking down?Do you ever feel out of place?Like somehow you just don't belongAnd no one understands youDo you ever wanna run away?Do you lock yourself in your room?With the radio on turned up so loud That no one hears you screaming

No you don't know what it's likeWhen nothing feels all rightYou don't know what it's likeTo be like me

To be hurtTo feel lostTo be left out in the darkTo be kicked when you're downTo feel like you've been pushed aroundTo be on the edge of breaking downAnd no one's there to save you No you don't know what it's likeWelcome to my life

Do you wanna be somebody else?Are you sick of feeling so left out?Are you desperate to find something more?Before your life is overAre you stuck inside a world you hate?Are you sick of everyone around?With their big fake smiles and stupid liesWhile deep inside you're bleeding

No you don't know what it's likeWhen nothing feels all rightYou don't know what it's likeTo be like me

To be hurtTo feel lostTo be left out in the darkTo be kicked when you're downTo feel like you've been pushed aroundTo be on the edge of breaking downAnd no one's there to save you No you don't know what it's likeWelcome to my life

No one ever lied straight to your faceAnd no one ever stabbed you in the backYou might think I'm happy but I'm not gonna be okayEverybody always gave you what you wantedYou never had to work it was always thereYou don't know what it's like, what it's like

To be hurtTo feel lostTo be left out in the darkTo be kicked when you're downTo feel like you've been pushed aroundTo be on the edge of breaking downAnd no one's there to save you No you don't know what it's like (what it's like)

- Now read this text about Simple Mind and do the exercises which follow.

The Montreal-based punk-pop group Simple Plan is comprised of high

school pals Pierre Bouvier (vocals), Jeff Stinco (guitar), David Desrosiers (bass), Sebastien Lefebvre (guitar), and Chuck Comeau (drums). The five-piece initially came together when Comeau and Bouvier founded Reset at age 13. Reset was a modest success in Canada, touring the country with fellow punkers MxPx, Ten Foot Pole, and Face to Face. A debut album followed in 1997; however, Comeau bowed out quietly to attend college. Two years later, Comeau let his studies take a back seat in order for he, Stinco, and Lefebvre to start making music.

At the same time, Bouvier was still in charge of Reset, but growing tired of being both a frontman and a guitarist. He and Comeau reconnected at a Sugar Ray show in late 1999 and soon Bouvier was back with Comeau and the rest of his motley crew. Desrosiers, who replaced Bouvier in Reset, was asked to join Comeau and his pals, and Simple Plan was born. They landed show dates with the annual Vans Warped Tour in 2001 as well as spots with Toronto's Snow Jam.

By now, Simple Plan had a spunky, energetic punk sound, textured like Cheap Trick, but raw like Pennywise. In 2002, Simple Plan headed into the studio to make a record. Good Charlotte's Joel Madden and Mark Hoppus of blink-182 joined Simple Plan during those sessions and the end result was the fiery, fun No Pads, No Helmets...Just Balls, which was released in spring 2003 on Lava. The group took home a 2003 MuchMusic Video Award for People's Choice Favorite Canadian Group in June. Their Bob Rock-produced second album, Still Not Getting Any..., followed the next year and did quite well, scoring the hits "Crazy" and "Welcome to My Life." In 2005 Simple Plan issued Live from the Hard Rock. The following year, the band scaled back their touring schedule in order to concentrate on writing new material. Simple Plan entered the studio in June 2007 to begin work on their third studio album; the self-titled Simple Plan was released in February 2008.

3. Read some people’s opinions about Welcome to my life. Listen to the song again. Do you agree or disagree? What do you think about the song?

-You know what? I think Simple Plan wanted us to see that we aren’t alone. That just because we feel the way we do, doesn't mean that we are the only ones feeling it. Think about it, how many times have we told ourselves that no one understands you? And that your life is horrible? Well simple plan knows that they aren't the only ones living it and knew that others believed that they were the only ones. So they wrote this song. It makes sense, and it probably made sense to them too.(Sorry I’m not trying to sound like I know them or anything, that's just what I personally think) Karen, The United States

- They aren't talking about their lives. Their songs have turned my life around, I used to be in a big time gang, I have almost died, but once I listened to these songs, I realized that I'm not the only one suffering because of my gang. - Javier, D.F, Mexico- Lauren, Kansas City. This is a great song....it really sums up a feeling that I personally think everyone goes through in there life at some point or another.- Holly. This song is the summary of my life.

- Cooper, Dub Town, NJ I want to know what the hell happened to them that was so horrible. If it really is worse than all of the adversity and horrors that I've endured in my life, I'll take back any negativity toward this song.

1.Paul McCartney: Lead vocals, Bass guitar. George Harrison: Harmony vocals, Lead Guitar Ringo Starr: Drums "All My Loving" is a song by The Beatles, written by Paul McCartney, but credited to Lennon/McCartney, from the 1963 album With the Beatles.The lyrics of All my loving were thought up by Paul as he was having a shave! He then went through his normal daily routine and composed the music to the Beatles song later that evening. In this respect it is an interesting song as it was the first song that he had ever written where he had the lyrics before the music.This song was written when the Beatles were away on tour and as such it displays the different personalities of Paul and John; while McCartney writes about how good things will be when they meet up again, Lennon tended to write about the sorrow and loneliness of being apart. This is one of the few Paul songs that john gave open praise for and he called it “a damn good piece of work”.According to Alan Weiss, a TV producer who happened to be there, "All My Loving" was playing on the sound system at Roosevelt Hospital emergency room when John Lennon was pronounced dead after being shot by Mark David Chapman on 8 December 1980. The lyrics to the song themselves are inspired (like many future songs were to be) by Paul’s relationship with Jane Asher, who previously had been quoted as saying in an interview about the Beatles “now these I could scream for”. She went on to have a five year relationship with Paul and has been an inspiration for many of the McCartney’s love songs. That said the lyrics of this song can be looked on two ways ‘I’ll pretend that I’m kissing the lips that I’m missing’ does this mean he’s imaging being with Jane or does it mean that he’s thinking of her when he’s kissing someone else?

3.Students’ own answers.Originally thought to be about either angels, the government, or parents, the track was in fact written during the collapse of Sting's marriage to Frances Tomelty; the lyrics are the words of a sinister, controlling character, who is watching "every breath you take / every move you make".

“I woke up in the middle of the night with that line in my head, sat down at the piano and had written it in half an hour. The tune itself is generic, an aggregate of hundreds of others, but the words are interesting. It sounds like a comforting love song. I didn't realise at the time how sinister it is. I think I was thinking of Big Brother, surveillance and control”.

3.Taken form Wikipedia: “The song's usage of the word "ironic" attracted attention for what many feel is an improper application of the term. Some situations that Morissette describes in the song are arguably examples of cosmic irony: events that, as the Oxford English Dictionary puts it, appear "as if in mockery of the fitness or rightness of things", such as "a death row pardon/two minutes too late". Others appear to be merely unfortunate (not even improbable or coincidental), such as "a black fly/in your Chardonnay" or "A traffic jam/when you're already late." If one discounts cosmic irony, however, it is arguable that the song is ironic in and of itself - there is a fundamental incongruity in a song titled "Ironic" which ultimately contains no irony, an interpretation that Morissette herself has supported.An analysis of the ironic lack of irony in "Ironic" by Irish comedian Ed Byrne includes:"There's nothing ironic about being stuck in a traffic jam when you're late for something. Unless you're a town planner. If you were a town planner and you were on your way to a seminar of town planners at which you were giving a talk on how you solved the problem of traffic congestion in your area, couldn't get to it because you were stuck in a traffic jam, that'd be well ironic." "Rain on your wedding day is ironic only if marrying a weatherman and he set the date." "A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break, that's inconsiderate office management. A no-smoking sign in a cigarette factory - irony." "Ten thousand spoons? How big is your sink, Alanis? What do you need this knife for - to stab the bloke who keeps leaving spoons all over your house?" Morissette herself does in fact acknowledge that "Ironic" is not filled with ironies and this in itself is what makes it ironic. Additionally, she confirms that she is a self-dubbed "malapropism queen" (incidentally thereby also using the word 'malapropism' incorrectly) and that the song was lighthearted and not taken too seriously at the time it was written.

“For me the great debate on whether what I was saying in ‘Ironic’ was ironic wasn’t a traumatic debate. I’d always embraced the fact that every once in a while I’d be the malapropism queen. And when Glen and I were writing it, we definitely were not doggedly making sure that everything was technically ironic. It’s a testament to the fact that we didn’t think it was going to be put under the microscope by 30 million people. For me the sweetest moment came in New York when a woman came up to me in a record store and said, ‘So all those things in the ‘Ironic’ aren’t ironic.’ And then she said, ‘And that’s the irony.” I said, ‘Yup.’ To me it’s a real snapshot of a nineteen-year-old’s definition and version of how life worked at the time. All that ‘Ironic’ touches on spawned all my future inquiries into and current understandings of the mysteries of life.”

2. My Heart Will Go On" is the theme song of the 1997 blockbuster film Titanic. With music by James Horner and lyrics by Will Jennings, it was recorded by Céline Dion. Originally released in 1997 on Dion's album Let's Talk About Love, it went to number one all over the world, including the United States, United Kingdom and Australia. My Heart Will Go On was released in Australia and Germany on December 8, 1997, and in the rest of the world in January and February of 1998.In March 2007, the United World Chart ranked "My Heart Will Go On" as the fourteenth most successful song in music history. Referring to that same list, "My Heart Will Go On" is also the second most successful song released by a solo female musician behind Whitney Houston's cover of "I Will Always Love You."

Horner had originally composed the song as an instrumental motif that is used in several scenes during Titanic. He then wanted to make a full vocal song out of it, for use in the end credits of the film. Director James Cameron did not want such a song, but Horner went ahead anyway and got Jennings to write the lyrics. Dion was Horner's first choice to sing it, but when she heard the song, she did not want to record it. It was her manager and husband, René Angélil, who convinced her to record a demo version, which was something she hadn't done for many years. Horner waited until Cameron was in an appropriate mood before presenting him with the song.Dion in the "My Heart Will Go On" music video (1997).After playing it several times, Cameron declared his approval, although worried that he might be criticised for "going commercial at the end of the movie."The song was recorded in one take and without instrumental accompaniment. Horner, Dion, and later Sony Music decided to use this first recording because "Dion's voice was perfect." Two oddities in this song occur when Dion sings "my heart will go ond and on" and "and I believe thatch the heart does go on."The music video was directed by Bille Woodruff and released at the end of 1997. It was included later on the All the Way... A Decade of Song and Video DVD.In addition to Dion's Let's Talk About Love and the Titanic soundtrack, "My Heart Will Go On" appears on several other albums, including three of Dion's later albums, Au cœur du stade, All the Way... A Decade of Song and A New Day... Live in Las Vegas.At the height of the song's popularity, some radio stations in the U.S. and the UK played an edited version of the song, that had dramatic moments of dialog from the Jack and Rose lead characters in the film inserted in between Dion's vocal lines. It was included later on Back to Titanic second soundtrack album. In France, "My Heart Will Go On" was released as a double A-side single with "The Reason."

7. “The Show Must Go On" is a song by English rock band Queen featured as the twelfth and final track on their 1991 album Innuendo. The song chronicles the effort of Freddie Mercury continuing to perform despite approaching the end of his life. The title, "the show must go on", may be in reaction to the numerous press speculations about lead singer Mercury's declining health since the late 1980s. It is regarded as one of Queen's most emotive, powerful songs by many fans .It was released as a single in the United Kingdom on October 14, 1991, just six weeks before Mercury died. Following Mercury's death in November 1991, the song re-entered the British charts and spent longer in the top 75 than it did on its original release, eventually reaching a peak of 16. A live version with Elton John on vocals appeared on Queen's Greatest Hits III album. The song was chosen as the favorite funeral song in a survey conducted in Europe.Cover versions: The song was one of many used in the 2001 film Moulin Rouge, performed by Jim Broadbent and Nicole Kidman. The music was recorded in 2006 by Divinefire for their album Into a New Dimension. It is one of the last songs premonitorily Grégory Lemarchal sang before his death. It was also covered by Michael Ball on his album Music. The Esperanto group Kore sings an Esperanto version of the song on their album Tielas Vivo.It also appears on Pet Shop Boys album Back To Mine as a Chris Lowe selection. It has also been covered by German power metal band Mwetalium on their album Nothing to Undo: Chapter Six

Listen to the song and write all the missing sentences. They are all the promises he makes, so you now know how to begin each sentence!

ALL FOR LOVE. BRYAN ADAMSWhen it's love you give (…………………………………………..) Then in love you live. (………………………………………………………………………….) ………………………………………………………., Be there when you're old, To have and to hold.

When there's love inside (………………………………………………..) Then there's a reason why. (……………………………………………….) ………………………………………………. From the wind and the rain, From the hurt and pain.

Let's make it all for one and all for love. Let the one you hold be the one you want, The one you need, 'Cause when it's all for one it's one for all. When there's someone that should know Then just let your feelings show And make it all for one and all for love.

When it's love you make (I'll be the fire in your night.) Then it's love you take. (I will defend, I will fight.) I'll be there when you need me. When honor's at stake, This vow I will make:

That it's all for one and all for love. Let the one be the one you want, The one you need, 'Cause when it's all for one it's one for all. When there's someone that should know Then just let your feelings show And make it all for one and all for love.

Don't lay our love to rest 'Cause we could stand up to you test. We got everything and more than we had planned, More than the rivers that run the land. We've got it all in our hands.

Now it's all for one and all for love. (It's all for love.) Let the one you hold be the one you want, The one you need,

'Cause when it's all for one it's one for all. (It's one for all.) When there's someone that should know Then just let your feelings show. When there's someone that you want, When there's someone that you need Let's make it all, all for one and all for love.

ETERNAL FLAME. BANGLESThis song was released in 1988 by the Bangles, but in 2001, the band Atomic Kitten made a cover, to let another generation know the song they loved.In this song, a person in love asks his/her lover a few questions about his/her feelings, to see if he/she feels the same “burning” as the singer feels. The first words of these questions have been taken out. Listen to the song and complete all the questions you can hear.In another part of the song, you will also hear some imperatives or requests the singer makes to share his/her feelings. They are:Say my name/ close your eyes/ give me your handWrite them in the gaps too.ETERNAL FLAME. BANGLES

…………………………………..…………………………………., darlin'……………………… my heart beating?…………….. understand?………………………….. the same?…………… only dreaming? burning an eternal flame?

I believeIt's meant to be, darlin'I watch you when you are sleepingYou belong with me

……………………..feel the same?……………. only dreaming?…………………….. burning (burning) an eternal flame?…………………………………..Sun shines through the rainA whole life so lonelyAnd then you come and ease the painI don't want to lose this feeling, oh.

…………………………………..Sun shines through the rainA whole life so lonelyAnd then you come and ease the painI don't want to lose this feeling, oh.(Repeat twice)

This song was released in 1991.It is about a boy who loves a girl and knows that she loves him too, but wants her to show it by more than just saying “I love you”. He´s saying that if she showed him more

affection and emotion, she wouldn´t have to say she loves him, because she would already know.This is an example of 2nd Conditional sentences, which are used to refer to hypothetical situations. This song contains some sentences in the 2nd Conditional. The “If clause” , that is, the part of the conditional that starts with “if…”, has been taken out. Try to fill in the gaps to complete the song:It also contains some imperatives, requests the singer makes to his lover.Order these imperative sentences to write them where you can hear them:Touch me / don´t ever let me go/ hold me close / reach out your hand

MORE THAN WORDS (EXTREME) Saying I love youIs not the words I want to hear from youIt's not that I want youNot to say, but if you only knewHow easy it would be to show me how you feelMore than words is all you have to do to make it realThen you wouldn't have to say that you love meCos I'd already knowWhat would you do if my heart was torn in twoMore than words to show you feelThat your love for me is realWhat would you say if I took those words awayThen you couldn't make things newJust by saying I love youMore than wordsNow I've tried to talk to you and make you understandAll you have to do is close your eyesAnd just reach out your hands and touch meHold me close don't ever let me goMore than words is all I ever needed you to showThen you wouldn't have to say that you love meCos I'd already knowWhat would you do if my heart was torn in twoMore than words to show you feelThat your love for me is realWhat would you say if I took those words awayThen you couldn't make things newJust by saying I love youMore than wordsI know; Been that way for all my time. 'Til forever, on it goes Through the circle, fast and slow, I know; It can't stop, I wonder.

I Saw Her Standing There (Lennon/McCartney)

 Lead vocal: Paul

1 - 2 - 3 - 4 ! 

Well, she was just 17You know what I mean

And the way she looked was way beyond compareSo how could I dance with another (ooh) When I saw her standing there

Well she looked at me, and I, I could seeThat before too long I'd fall in love with herShe wouldn't dance with another (whooh)When I saw her standing there

Well, my heart went "boom"When I crossed that roomAnd I held her hand in mine

Whoah, we danced through the nightAnd we held each other tightAnd before too long I fell in love with herNow I'll never dance with another (whooh)Since I saw her standing there (Ahh!)

Well, my heart went "boom"When I crossed that roomAnd I held her hand in mine

Oh, we danced through the nightAnd we held each other tightAnd before too long I fell in love with herNow I'll never dance with another (whooh)Since I saw her standing thereWhoah since I saw her standing thereYeah well since I saw her standing there

Supertramp - The Logical Song

When I was youngIt seemed that life was so wonderfulA miracle, oh it was beautiful, magicalAnd all the birds in the treesWell they'd be singing so happilyOh joyfully, oh playfully watching meBut then they sent me awayTo teach me how to be sensibleLogical, oh responsible, practicalAnd they showed me a worldWhere I could be so dependableOh clinical, oh intellectual, cynical

There are times when all the world's asleepThe questions run too deepFor such a simple manWon't you please, please tell me what we've learnedI know it sounds absurdBut please tell me who I am

Now watch what you sayOr they'll be calling you a radicalA liberal, oh fanatical, criminalOh won't you sign up your nameWe'd like to feel you'reAcceptable, respectable, oh presentable, a vegetable

At night when all the world's asleepThe questions run so deepFor such a simple manWon't you please, please tell me what we've learnedI know it sounds absurdBut please tell me who I am, who I am, who I am, who I am

I will survive. Glorya GaynorAt first I was afraid I was petrified Kept thinkin' I could never live without you by my side; But then I spent so many nights Thinkin' how you did me wrong And I grew strong And so you're back from outer space I just walked in to find you here with that sad look upon your face I should have changed that stupid lock I should have made you leave your key If I'd've known for just one second you'd back to bother me Go on now, go walk out the door Just turn around now ('cause) you're not welcome anymore Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye Did I crumble Did you think I'd lay down and die? Oh no, not.I. I will survive Oh as long as I know how to love I know I'll stay alive; I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give and I'll survive, I will survive. Hey hey. It took all the strength I had not to fall apart Kept trying' hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart, And I spent oh so many nights Just feeling sorry for myself. I used to cry But now I hold my head up high And you see me somebody new I'm not that chained up little person still in love with you, And so you feel like droppin' in And just expect me to be free, Now I'm savin' all my lovin' for someone who's lovin' me Go on now.. etc.

Change the world. Eric ClaptonIf I could reach the stars I'd pull one down for youShine it on my heart so you could see the truthThat this love I have inside is everything it seemsBut for now I find it's only in my dreams

CHORUS:That I can change the worldI would be the sunlight in your universeYou will think my love was really something goodBaby if I could change the world

If I could be king even for a dayI'd take you as my queen I'd have it no other wayAnd our love will rule in this kingdom we have madeTill then I'd be a fool wishin' for the day

CHORUS:That I can change the worldI would be the sunlight in your universeYou will think my love was really something goodBaby if I could change the worldBaby if I could change the world

Clocks. ColdplayLights go out and I can’t be saved Tides that I tried to swim against Brought me down upon my knees Oh I beg, I beg and plead

Singin’, come out if things aren’t said Shoot an apple off my head And a, trouble that can’t be named Tigers waitin’ to be tamed

Singing, yooooooooooooo ohhhhhh Yoooooooooooo ohhhhhh

Confusion never stops Closing walls and ticking clocks Gonna, come back and take you home I could not stop that you now know

Singin’, come out upon my seas Curse missed opportunities Am I, a part of the cure Or am I part of the disease

Singin’, yoooooooooooo ohhhhhh Yooooooooooooo ohhhhhh Yooooooooooooo ohhhhhh Yooooooooooooo ohhhhhh

Yooooooooooooo ohhhhhh Yooooooooooooo ohhhhhh

Oh nothing else compares Oh nothing else compares And nothing else compares

"Dancing Queen"

You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your lifeSee that girl, watch that scene, dig in the Dancing Queen

Friday night and the lights are lowLooking out for the place to goWhere they play the right music, getting in the swingYou come in to look for a kingAnybody could be that guyNight is young and the music's highWith a bit of rock music, everything is fineYou're in the mood for a danceAnd when you get the chance...

You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeenDancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourineYou can dance, you can jive, having the time of your lifeSee that girl, watch that scene, dig in the Dancing Queen

You're a teaser, you turn 'em onLeave them burning and then you're goneLooking out for another, anyone will doYou're in the mood for a danceAnd when you get the chance...

You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeenDancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourineYou can dance, you can jive, having the time of your lifeSee that girl, watch that scene, dig in the Dancing Queen

ALL FOR LOVE. BRYAN ADAMS

When it's love you give (I'll be a man of good faith.) Then in love you live. (I'll make a stand. I won't break.) I'll be the rock you can build on, Be there when you're old, To have and to hold.

When there's love inside (I swear I'll always be strong.) Then there's a reason why. (I'll prove to you we belong.) I'll be the wal that protects you From the wind and the rain, From the hurt and pain.

Let's make it all for one and all for love. Let the one you hold be the one you want, The one you need, 'Cause when it's all for one it's one for all. When there's someone that should know Then just let your feelings show And make it all for one and all for love.

When it's love you make (I'll be the fire in your night.) Then it's love you take. (I will defend, I will fight.) I'll be there when you need me. When honor's at stake, This vow I will make:

That it's all for one and all for love. Let the one be the one you want, The one you need, 'Cause when it's all for one it's one for all. When there's someone that should know Then just let your feelings show And make it all for one and all for love.

Don't lay our love to rest 'Cause we could stand up to you test. We got everything and more than we had planned, More than the rivers that run the land. We've got it all in our hands.

Now it's all for one and all for love. (It's all for love.) Let the one you hold be the one you want, The one you need, 'Cause when it's all for one it's one for all. (It's one for all.) When there's someone that should know Then just let your feelings show.

When there's someone that you want, When there's someone that you need Let's make it all, all for one and all for love.

Don’t get me wrongIf I’m looking kind of dazzledI see neon lightsWhenever you walk by

Don’t get me wrongIf you say “hello” and I take a rideUpon a sea where the mystic moonIs playing havoc with the tideDon’t get me wrong

Don’t get me wrong If I’m acting so distractedI’m thinking about the fireworks

That go off when you smile

Don’t get me wrong If I split like light refractedI’m only off to wanderAcross a moonlit mile

CHORUSOnce in a whileTwo people meetSeemingly for no reasonThey just pass on the streetSuddenly thunder, showers everywhereWho can explain the thunder and rainBut there’s something in the air

As long as you are living, always remember, time is for spending but there is an endingWhile you are sleeping, life isn´t creeping, wake up and taste it, foolish to waste it, sample and savour all of life’s flavours as long as you are living.

As long as you are living, always remember, folks that are lazy are playing crazy.You’d better get moving, keep your improvement, you won´t be hurried after you are buried, live every minute and put yourself in it as long as you are living.

As long as you are living, always remember, you never beat life, don´t try to cheat life.Sisters and brothers do unto others love is for enjoying, hate is for destroying.Never forget it or you’ll regret as long as you are living.

8. Read this text about the singer and write questions for the answers below:

It’s not just critics who love Karrin Allyson. It’s the rest of the world, too—musicians, concertgoers and connoisseurs of quality music. The two-time Grammy award-nominated singer has been gathering fans everywhere jazz can be heard or seen since 1992. That was the year Allyson assembled her Kansas City-based rhythm section, borrowed funds from her family and headed into the studio. The result? I Didn’t Know About You. The reaction was immediate, the young singer was placed in the company of legends such as Ella Fitzgerald and Shirley Horn. Allyson is able to capture the essence of classic melodies and timeless lyrics while convincingly making them her own.

What has generated this much esteem and success? First of all there is the singer’s distinctive voice. But there is more, Karrin Allyson is also a great bandleader. If you listen carefully, you will hear highly developed musical interplay with her band that sounds so natural that it conceals the deep level of musical sophistication. It is the result of working for more than a decade with an ensemble of jazz virtuosi. Together, they have developed a powerful and flexible language and style unique among current groups.

- Everybody loves her. - She asked her family for money to create the group.- It was called I didn´t know about you. - Because of her voice and her talent at leading her band.

Social issues

Song: Both Sides of the Story by Phil CollinsLevel: 2nd bach.Language: vocabulary. debateTime: 1 class

1. What are the main social problems in your country /city?

2. Who do you think is responsible for them?

3. Explain the meaning of the proverb: “place yourself in my shoes”.

4. Think of the last time someone did you wrong. What would you have done if you

had been the other person?

Listen to this song:

Though we might hate to admit it, there are two sides to every story.

Find yourself in the gutter in a lonely part of townWhere death waits in the darkness with a weapon to cut some stranger down.Sleeping with an empty bottle, he’s a sad and empty hearted man,All he needs is a job and a little respect so he can get out while he can.

We always need to hear both sides of the story.

A neighbourhood peace is shattered, it’s the middle of the night,Young faces hide in the shadows, while they watch their mother and father fight.He says she’s been unfaithful, she says her love for him has gone.And the brother shrugs to his sister and says “looks like it’s just us from now on”.

We always need to hear both sides of the story.

And the lights are all on, the world is watching nowPeople looking for truth, we must not fail them now.Be sure before we close our eyes.Don’t walk away from here till you hear both sides.

Here we are all gathered in what seems to be the center of the stormNeighbours once friendly now stand each side of the line that has been drawn.They’ve been fighting here for years but now there’s killing on the streetsWhile small coffins are lined up sadly, now united in defeat.

A perfect life

Song: American Life by MadonnaLevel: 4 ESO Language: vocabulary: professions, reading comprehensionTime: 1 class

Madonna is one of the top pop superstars of all time. From her first album, Madonna (1983) state of the art dance-pop, she revolutionized dance music. The following year Like a Virgin (1984) established the title song and "Material Girl," as two of her quintessential hits. In 1989 with Like a Prayer, Madonna's video generated intense controversy from both the Roman Catholic Church and Pepsi, who withdrew a sponsorship agreement. In Ray Of Light (1998) Madonna got another hit song "Frozen” as well as in Music (2000) an album filled with state-of-the-art production effects. Her last album American Life (2003) failed to generate any major hit singles. It has more social commentary than Madonna has ever attempted which seemed a turn off to many pop fans.

The song "American Life" is very lyrically simple, but may in fact represent one of the more daring statements by a performer since John Lennon's "Imagine”. "I'm not a Christian and I'm not a Jew" expresses a point of view that probably alienated a lot of potential record buyers. In its original form, the American Life video was fearless, incendiary.

1. What is success for you?2. What does a person have to do to be successful?3. How would your life be different if you had all you wanted? Describe one day.4. What is the “American Dream”?5. Listen to this song and answer the questions:

"American Life" by Madonna

Do I have to change my name? Will it get me far? Should I lose some weight? Am I gonna be a star?

I tried to be a boy, I tried to be a girl I tried to be a mess, I tried to be the best I guess I did it wrong, That's why I wrote this song

This type of modern life - Is it for me? This type of modern life - Is it for free?So, I went into a bar looking for sympathy A little company - I tried to find a friend It's more easily said it's always been the same

This type of modern life -Is not for me? This type of modern life -Is not for free?

American life I live the American dream You are the best thing I've seen, You are not just a dreamI tried to stay ahead,I tried to stay on top I tried to play the part,But somehow I forgot Just what I did it for And why I wanted more This type of modern life - Is it for me? This type of modern life - Is it for free?

Do I have to change my name? Will it get me far? Should I lose some weight? Am I gonna be a star?

American life I live the American dream You are the best thing I've seen, You are not just a dream

I tried to be a boy,I tried to be a girl

I tried to be a mess,I tried to be the best I tried to find a friend, I tried to stay ahead I tried to stay on top...

Do I have to change my name? Will it get me far? Should I lose some weight? Am I gonna be a star?

I'm drinking a soy latte I get a double shot It goes right through my body And you know I'm satisfied,I drive my mini cooper And I'm feeling super-dooper Yo they tell I'm a trooper And you know I'm satisfied I do yoga and pilates And the room is full of hotties So I'm checking out the bodies And you know I'm satisfied I'm digging on the isotopes This metaphysic's shit is dope And if all this can give me hope You know I'm satisfied I got a lawyer and a manager An agent and a chef Three nannies, an assistant And a driver and a jet A trainer and a butler And a bodyguard or five A gardener and a stylist Do you think I'm satisfied?I'd like to express my extreme point of view I'm not Christian and I'm not a Jew I'm just living out the American dream And I just realized that nothing is what it seems

I have to change my name I gonna be a star I have to change my name

A. Birdie Song tops hall of shame. The Tweets are worthy winners of most irritating record. It didn't even have any lyrics but the Birdie Song - the maddening tune which prompted displays of appalling dancing throughout the 1980s, has been voted the most annoying song of all time. The irritating classic by The Tweets, which went to number two in 1981, fought off stiff competition from the Teletubbies whose Eh-oh oh no! came a close second.

B. We want to find out what our listeners think is the worst song ever recorded. Over a couple of weeks, we asked listeners to nominate their least favourite songs, then picked the 10 worst finalists. Those ten were put to the vote.According to our poll, the worst song ever is Achy Breaky Heart by Billy Ray Cyrus. Our winner is Mandy Carman. Mandy picks up a collection of Hercule Poirot DVDs, the Billy Ray Cyrus album Some Gave All and Derryn Hinch's book on relationships, You Are So Beautiful.

He told me I could tell the world I had never been his girl. And added that I could burn his clothes when he were gone or I could even tell my friend what a fool he had been and I could also joke about him on the phone.

He continued saying that I could tell his arms to go back onto the phone and I could tell his feet to hit the road or I could tell his lips to tell his fingertips not to reach for me anymore.

But he asked me not to tell his heart, his acky breaky heart that, because he thought it might not understand. And went on saying that if I told his heart it might blow up and kill him.

He said I could tell my mother he moved to Arkansas or tell my dog to bite his leg or tell my brother Cliff to hit him and pointed out he had never liked him anyway.

Difficult world to live in

Song: Where is the Love?, by Black Eyed PeasLevel: 2 bach.Language: vocabulary. Reading comprehensionTime: 2 classes

Black Eyed Peas

The Black Eyed Peas are a Grammy award-winning American hip hop group from LA, California. They are world-wide known for their dance-oriented style ever since their breakout album Elephunk (2003). One of the members of the group explained on the front cover of another of their albums, Monkey business that “Black Eyed Beans are food for the soul”. They consider the Red Hot Chilli Peppers as an influence to the extent of having named the band after a food, just like them. The song “Where is the love?”, their first major hit comes from Elephunk.

Where’s the love?

What's wrong with the world, mama? People living like they aint got no mamas. I think the whole world’s addicted to the drama, only attracted to the things that bring you trauma. Overseas yeah we are trying to stop terrorism, but we still got terrorists here living in the USA the big CIA the Bloodz and the Crips and the KKK. But if you only have love for your own race, then you only leave space to discriminate and to discriminate only generates hate, and if you hate you're bound to get irate. Yeah madness is what you demonstrate. And that's exactly how anger works and operates. You gotta have love just to set it straight, take control of your mind and meditate, let your soul gravitate to the love y'all.

People killing, people dying, children hurting, you hear them crying. Can you practice what you preach, would you turn the other cheek? Father, Father, Father help us, send some guidance from above ‘cause people got me got me questioning: “where is the love?”(where is the lovex3)(the love2x)

It just ain't the same all ways have changed, new days are strange, is the world the insane?If love and peace are so strong, why are there pieces of love that don't belong? Nations dropping bombs, chemical gases filling lungs of little ones with ongoing suffering. As the youth die youngSo ask yourself is the loving really strong? So I can ask myself really what is going wrong with this world that we are living in?People keep on giving in, making wrong decisions, only visions of them living and not respecting each other, deny thy brother. The wars' going on but the reasons' undercover, the truth is kept secret swept under the rug.If you never know truth then you never know love . Where's the love y'all?(I don't know)Where's the truth y'all?(I don't know)Where's the love y'all?

People killing, people dying, children hurting, you hear them ……

I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder, as I'm getting older y'all people get colder. Most of us only care about money making, selfishness got us following the wrong direction, wrong information always shown by the media, negative images is the main criteria infecting their young minds faster than bacteria, kids wanna act like what they see in the cinema. Whatever happened to the values of humanity? Whatever happened to the fairness and equality? Instead of spreading love, we're spreading animosity, lack of understanding, leading us away from unity. That's the reason why sometimes I'm feeling under, that's the reason why sometimes I'm feeling down. It's no wonder why sometimes I'm feeling under, I gotta keep my faith alive, until love is found.

People killing, people dying, children hurting, you hear them ……….

a. What is the reason why the world is going wrong?b. What is the group’s opinion about the press?c. What do most people care only about?d. What is criticized about the USA politics?e. Who do they ask for help? Give your opinion about how important this notion is for
