英会話ワークショップ 〜 What is your song? 〜

I learned most of you love listening to music.
Here I want you to share one set of lyrics of your favorite English song and tell everyone what the song is about, who wrote it, and why you picked the one.

It may require a little bit of preparation before workshop, but some of you may not have time to do it. If that is your case, just bring one with you so that I can read it out and someone will interpret it.

At least, COME TO THE WORKSHOP!

AGENDA
1) Let your friends know about you.
2) Share your favorite lyrics
and why
3) games

「音楽を聴くことが趣味なのです手(チョキ)」

歌詞ピックして訳して考える・・・そんなヒマないわい!という方
ひとつのコーラスでもよいので書いてもってきていただければ幸いです。

それがなくても良いです。とりあえず来て他の方が持ってきた歌詞を一緒に分かち合うだけでもね!

そして
初めて参加しよっかなと考えていらっしゃる方々ぴかぴか(新しい)
いつも初めてのワークショップのようにセッティングしていますから、心配ありません。
私どもがしっかりフォローします。EmiやCarrieに会えばわかります。
このユニークな英会話ポジティブシンキング、King Solomonのワークショップで1つでも良い体験をして頂きたいというのが趣旨です。

    I post the song, “Little Things,” that I introduced at the workshop Today. Hope you like it too.

    クローバー桜"Little Things"by India Arie桜クローバー

    Oh, oh, oh…
    Been around the whole world, still ain't seen
    Nothin' like my neighborhood
    And of all the fancy satin and silk
    My white cotton feels so good

    Searched high and low for a place
    Where I can lay my burdens down
    Ain't nothin' in the whole wide world
    Like the peace that I have found

    (It's the little things) It's the little things
    And the joy they bring
    (The little things) It's the little things
    And joy they bring

    As simple as a phone call just to make it known
    That you're gonna be a little late
    Pure as a kiss on a cheek in a word
    That everything will be okay

    Call in the mornin' from my little sister
    Singin' to me, "Happy Birthday"
    In the quest for fortune and fame
    Don't forget about the simple things

    (It's the little things) It's the little things
    And the joy they bring, yeah
    (The little things) It's the little things
    And joy

    Give me some good food, give me cute shoes
    Give me some piece of mind
    Bring me some sunshine, bring me some blue sky

    Runnin' 'round in circles, lost my focus
    Lost sight of my goal
    I do this for the love of music
    Not for the glitter and gold

    Got everything that I pray for
    Even a little more
    When I ask to learn humility
    This is what I was told

    (It's the little things) It's the little things
    And the joy they bring, it's the little things
    (The little things) It's the little things
    Oh...hee...

    Give me my guitar, give me a bright star
    Give me some good news, give me some cute shoes
    Give me Atlanta, give me Savannah
    give me my peace of mind

    Give me some Stevie, give me some Donny
    Give me my daddy, give me my mommy
    Pour me some sweet tea, spoonful of honey
    I don't need no Hollywood

    My favorite songわーい(嬉しい顔)

    Alicia Keys - No One -

    I just want you close
    Where you can stay forever
    You can be sure
    That it will only get better
    You and me together
    Through the days and nights
    I don't worry 'cuz
    Everythings gonna be alright
    People keep talking
    They can say what they like
    But all I know is everything's gonna be alright

    No one no one no one
    Can get in the way of what I'm feeling
    No one no one no one
    Can get in the way of what I feel for you
    You you
    Can get in the way of what I feel for you

    When the rain is pouring down
    And my heart is hurting
    You will always be around
    This I know for certain

    You and me together
    Through the days and nights

    I don't worry cause
    Everythings gonna be alright
    People keep talking
    They can say what they like
    But all I know is everything's gonna be alright

    No one no one no one
    Can get in the way of what I'm feeling
    No one no one no one
    Can get in the way of what I feel for you
    You you
    Can get in the way of what I feel

    I know some people search the world
    To find something like what we have
    I know people will try
    Try to divide
    Something so real
    So till the end of time
    I'm telling you there is no one

    No one no one no one
    Can get in the way of what I'm feeling
    No one no one no one
    Can get in the way of what I feel for you
    Oh oh oh...

    THIS IS THE SONG I INTRODUCED AT THE WORKSHOP LAST NIGHT, IT IS ONE OF
    MY ALL-TIME FAVORITE SONGS!

    The Greatest Love Of All
    Written by Michael Masser and Linda Creed
    (Performed by George Benson, Whitney Houston)


    I believe that children are our future
    Teach them well and let them lead the way
    Show them all the beauty they possess inside
    Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
    Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be

    Everybody searching for a hero
    People need someone to look up to
    I never found anyone to fulfill my needs
    A lonely place to be
    So I learned to depend on me

    I decided long ago
    Never to walk in anyone's shadows
    If I fail, if I succeed
    At least I will live as I believe
    No matter what they take from me
    They can't take away my dignity

    Chorus:
    Because the greatest love of all
    Is happening to me
    I found the greatest love of all
    Inside of me
    The greatest love of all
    Is easy to achieve
    Learning to love yourself
    It is the greatest love of all

    I believe the children are our future
    Teach them well and let them lead the way
    Show them all the beauty they possess inside
    Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
    Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be

    And I decided long ago
    Never to walk in anyone's shadows
    If I fail, if I succeed
    At least I will live as I believe
    No matter what they take from me
    They can't take away my dignity

    Chorus:
    Because the greatest love of all
    Is happening to me
    I found the greatest love of all
    Inside of me
    The greatest love of all
    Is easy to achieve
    Learning to love yourself
    It is the greatest love of all

    And if by chance, that special place
    That you've been dreaming of
    Leads you to a lonely place
    Find your strength in love

    I posted the URL to the song so that you can check.
    Please try the Exercise I handed out for you.

    ワイングラスワイングラスワイングラスワイングラスワイングラスワイングラスワイングラス

    Don't know why

    I waited 'til I saw the sun
    I don't know why I didn't come
    I left you by the house of fun
    I don't know why I didn't come
    I don't know why I didn't come

    When I saw the break of day
    I wished that I could fly away
    Instead of kneeling in the sand
    Catching teardrops in my hand

    My heart is drenched in wine
    But you'll be on my mind
    Forever

    Out across the endless sea
    I would die in ecstasy
    But I'll be a bag of bones
    Driving down the road along

    My heart is drenched in wine
    But you'll be on my mind
    Forever

    Something has to make you run
    I don't know why I didn't come
    I feel as empty as a drum
    I don't know why I didn't come
    I don't know why I didn't come
    I don't know why I didn't come
