ご近所さんと英会話コミュのEnglish Music Study - この歌の意味は？

A lot of my Japanese students love English songs!

They sing them at karaoke and listen to them on iPod. Unfortunately, most of them have No Clue what these songs actually mean... Which is a problem when they decide to sing these English songs at, say for example, a dear friend`s wedding party!

Choosing to sing a seemingly happy song like "I Just Don`t Love You No More" by Craig David or "Unpretty" by TLC at a wedding party can not only be embarrassing, but can actually ruin your friends special day (especially if they`ve paid someone to record their wedding ceremony on DVD to share with English speaking friends).

To avoid this, here are a few English listening lessons to practice with.

Can you understand what these songs are talking about without reading the words?

1. Try listening to the song without reading the lyrics
2. Write your summary in the comments
3. The play the second video below that has the song lyrics

Was your summary about the song correct before you read the song lyrics?

This is a very good way for you to test your English listening and comprehension skills!
