Cette chanson est parfaite pour montrer l’articulation anglaise. Sachez que les mots importants (verbes, noms, adjectifs) reçoivent plus de temps et sont articulés plus que les petits mots ‘grammaticales’ (prépostitions, articles, auxiliaires, etc). Dans la chanson, le ‘beat’ tombe systematiquement sur les syllabes accentuées: I am SITTing in the MORNing at the DINer on the [...]

When I met you, I didn’t know what to do. I was tired, I was hungry, I fight. Now I’m away, I write home everyday and I see you on the TV at night. (Chorus) You can see that life’s for us to talk about. You can leave whenever you want out. Whoa. You don’t [...]

Is it really necessary Every single day You’re making me more ordinary And every possible way This ordinary man is broken You did it and you don’t even know You’re leaving me with words unspoken You better get back because I’m ready for More than this Whatever it is Baby, I hate days like this [...]

Try to see it my way, Do I have to keep on talking till I can’t go on? While you see it your way, Run the risk of knowing that our love may soon be gone. We can work it out, We can work it out. Think of what you’re saying. You can get it [...]

“in my life” is one of the best uses of the present perfect: it’s used to talk about experiences: In my life, I’ve lived in three different countries In my life, I’ve seen thousands of films In my life, I’ve had several different jobs In my life, I’ve written a book In my life, I’ve [...]

My favourite Robbie Williams song! The video shows typical dream scenarios – mainly about being helpless to do anything – climbing stairs but never reaching the top, hitting someone who doesn’t feel anything, being trapped in a maze etc. Buy the MP3 (album version) : Tripping (Album Version) or a karaoke version : Tripping (In [...]
