Unit 5
Without music, life is a journey through a
desert.
----Pat Conroy
Music is more than just sound. It is a way of thinking. When you listen to music, sing or play an instrument, you are also becoming better thinkers. You can learn English from songs too. While singing a song, you are learning English grammar and vocabulary.
Music appreciationWhen I was young I'd listen to the radio,Waiting for my favorite songs.When they played I'd sing along,It make me smile.Those were such happy times and not so long agoHow I wondered where they'd gone.But they're back again just like a long lost friend, all the songs I love so well.Every shalalala every wo still shines. Every shing-a-ling-a-ling that they're starting to sing so fine.
When they get to the part, Where he's breaking her heart,It can really make me cry, Just like before.It's yesterday once more.(shoobie do lang lang)
Looking back on how it was in years gone by,And the good times that had, Made today seem rather sad,So much has changed.It was songs of love that I would sing to them, And I'd memorize each word.Those old melodies still sound so good to me, As they melt the years away.
Every shalalala every wo still shines.Every shing-a-ling-a-ling That they're starting to sing so fine.All my best memories come back clearly to me, Some can even make me cry, Just like before.It's yesterday once more. (shoobie do lang lang)
Every shalala every wo still shines.Every shing-a-ling-a-ling That they're starting to sing so fine.Every shalala every wo still shines.Every shing-a-ling-a-ling That they're starting to sing so fine.
