LEARNING ENGLISH WITH SONGS (VII)

Now it is time for us to remember the greatest....
Frank Sinatra



Whose lyrics are:
  Start spreadin' the news,
  I'm leavin' today
  I want to be a part of it,
  New York, New York...
  These vagabond shoes
  They are longing to stray
  Right through the very heart of it,
  New York, New York...
  I wanna wake up in that city
  That doesn't sleep
  And find I'm king of the hill,
  Top of the heap...
  My little town blues
  They are melting away
  I'm gonna make a brand new start of it,
  In old New York...
  If I can make it there,
  I'll make it anywhere
  It's up to you,
  New York, New York...
  In New York, New York...
  I want to wake up in that city
  That doesn't sleep
  And find I'm king of the hill,
  Top of the list,
  King of the hill,
  A-number-one...
  These little town blues 
  Oh they're melting away
  I'm gonna make
  A brand new start of it
  In old New York
  A-a-a-nd if I can make it there,
  I'm gonna make it anywhere
  It's up to you,
  New York, New York...
  New York...

SUGATA MITRA: THE CHILD-DRIVEN EDUCATION

In this video, education scientist Sugata Mitra tackles one of the
greatest problems of education: the best teachers and schools
don't exist where they're needed most. In a series of real-life
experiments from New Delhi to South Africa to Italy, he gave kids
self-supervised access to the web and saw results that could
revolutionize how we think about teaching.


It's long, of course, a bit difficult, but with the help of subtittles
I'm sure yo will enjoy Sugata Mitras's ideas and experiments.

COLDPLAY WISHES YOU A MERRY CHRISTMAS

A new song by Coldplay...


And now the lyrics...

Christmas night, another fight
Tears we cried a flood
Got all kinds of poison in
Of poison in my blood

I took my feet to Oxford street
Trying to right a wrong
"Just walk away" those windows said
But I can’t believe she’s gone

When you´re still waiting for the snow to fall
It doesn’t really feel like Christmas at all

A group of candles on me flicker
Oh they flicker and they flow
And I am up here holding on to all those chandeliers of hope
And like some drunkard Elvis singing
I go singing out of tune
Singing how I always loved you darling
And I always will

But when you´re still waiting for the snow to fall
It doesn’t really feel like Christmas at all
Still waiting for the snow to fall
It doesn’t really feel like Christmas at all

Those Christmas Lights
Light up the street
Down where the sea and city meet
May all your troubles soon be gone
Oh Christmas Lights keep shining on

Those Christmas Lights
Light up the street
Maybe they´ll bring her back to me
Then all my troubles will be gone
Oh Christmas Lights keep shining on

Oh Christmas Lights
Light up the streets
Light up the fireworks in me
May all your troubles soon be gone
Those Christmas Lights keep shining on
