I was there to witness
Candice’s inner princess
She wants the boys to notice
Her rainbows, and her ponnies
She was educated
But could not count to ten
How she got lots of different horses
By lots of different men
And I say
Liberate your sons and daughters
The bush is high
But in the hole there’s water
You can get some, when they give it
Nothing sacred, but it's a living
Hey ho here she goes
Either a little too high or a little too low
Got no self-esteem and vertigo
Cause she thinks she’s made of candy
Hey ho here she goes
Either a little too loud or a little too close
There's a hurricane in the back of her throat
And she thinks she’s made of candy
Ring a ring of roses
Whoever gets the closest
She comes and she goes
As the war of the roses
Mother was a victim
Father beat the system
By moving bricks to Brixton
And learning how to fix them
Liberate your sons and daughters
The bush is high
But in the hole there’s water
As you win
She’ll be the hollywood love
And if it don’t feel good
What are you doing this for
Now tell me
Hey ho here she goes
Either a little too high or a little too low
Got no self-esteem and vertigo
Cause she thinks she’s made of candy
Hey ho here she goes
Either a little too loud or a little too close
There's a hurricane in the back of her throat
And she thinks she’s made of candy
Liberate your sons and daughters
The bush is high
But in the hole there’s water
As you win
She’ll be the hollywood love
And if you don’t feel good
What are you doing this for
What are you doing this for
What are you doing this for
Hey ho here she goes
Either a little too high or a little too low
Got no self-esteem and vertigo
Cause she thinks she’s made of candy
Hey ho here she goes
Either a little too loud or a little too close
There's a hurricane in the back of her throat
And she thinks she’s made of candy
This is the song where the word "hitch-hiking" appears, Ivan likes it. It's one of his favourite songs. We put the official video because it is really funny. The lyrics are below.
A long time ago...me and my brother kyle here,
we were hitchhiking down a long and lonesome road.
All of a sudden, there shined a shiny demon,
in the middle of the road.
And he said, "play the best song in the world, or i'll eat your soul."
Well me and kyle, we looked at each other, and we each said...
"okay."
And we played the first thing that came to our heads
just so happened to be, the best song in the world.
it was the best song in the world.
oh, yeah.
oh, and it saved our butts, because the demon want to kill us.
oh.
But he was forced to set us free, by the honor code that demons...
have to live by.
Cause it's satan's surprise and it's magic!
and it's a mystical disguise...
it's the devil's song and it's tragic!
you are the mystical-eyed virgin and you're rocking!
Well needless to say, the beast was stunned.
whip crack, went the swampy tail, and the beast was done.
He asked us, "be you angels?"
and we said "nay! we are but men, rock!"
This is not the greatest song in the world, no.
this is just a tribute.
couldn't remember the greatest song in the world, no.
no! this is a tribute, oh!
To the greatest song in the world, alright!
to the greatest song in the world, alright!
it is just the best motherfuckin' song, the greatest song in the world.
Thanks Ana for your contributions and I am waiting for the rest of you to tell me something about it. I have already included one of my favourite songs, however my favourite groups ever are Guns 'n Roses and Queen.
She's got a smile it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything
Was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
And if I'd stare too long
I'd probably break down and cry
Oh, oh, oh
Sweet child o' mine
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Sweet love of mine
She's got eyes of the bluest skies
As if they thought of rain
I hate to look into those eyes
And see an ounce of pain
Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place
Where as a child I'd hide
And pray for the thunder
And the rain
To quietly pass me by
Oh, oh, oh
Sweet child o' mine
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Sweet love of mine
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Sweet child o' mine
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Sweet love of mine
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Sweet child o' mine
Oh,
Sweet love of mine
Where do we go?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go?
Oh, oh
Where do we go?
Oh,
Where do we go now?
Where do we go?
Oh, (sweet child)
I was born to love you
With every single beat of my heart
Yes, I was born to take care of you
Every single day...
chorus:
I was born to love you
With every single beat of my heart
Yes, I was born to take care of you
Every single day of my life
You are the one for me
I am the man for you
You were made for me
You're my ecstasy
If I was given every opportunity
I'd kill for your love
So take a chance with me
Let me romance with you
I'm caught in a dream
And my dream's come true
It's so hard to believe
This is happening to me
An amazing feeling
Comin' through
chorus
I wanna love you
I love every little thing about you
I wanna love you, love you, love you
Born - to love you
Born - to love you
Yes I was born to love you
Born - to love you
Born - to love you
Every single day - of my life
An amazing feeling
Coming through
chorus
Yes I was born to love you
Every single day of my life
Go, I love you babe
Yes I was born to love you
I wanna love you, love you, love you
I wanna love you
I get so lonely, lonely, lonely
Yeah, I want to love you
Yeah, give it to me

Michael Buble is my favorite singer and this song, "Everything", is my favorite from him. The next one, is a Gloria Gaynor's song, and when I feel bad and blue, I listen and sing it and I feel much better.
In this case you are going to listen an extract from a radio phone-in programme. Three people are calling in to describe how their life changed when they had a baby. You need to find out:
Name of each caller
Child name
How his/her life change
Things to buy/do/around the house
What about the advice that each of the three callers gives, did you get it?
A I am prepared to try reading books that seem difficult
B I think that some of what I read is a waste of time
C I like reading books that are part of a series
D I find that reading is a way of relaxing
E I enjoy reading books that have been made into films
F I choose books connected with the career I want to follow
KAY hi, Sally. Long time no see! What are you doing here?
SALLY Oh, hi, Kay. Same as you , I expect...just shopping.
KAY Great. Is that a new dress?
SALLY Yes, it is. I got it yesterday. Do you like it?
KAY Well,...it's very ummm.......very short for you, isn't it, Sally?
SALLY Short is "in" this summer. Didn't you know?
KAY oh, I don't read any of those fashion magazines.
SALLY I can tell you don't. Well, this is the latest fashion...from Milan
KAY oh, I know it's popular, I've seen that kind of dress a lot. It seems everyone is wearing it these days. I prefer something more ...individual.
SALLY Yes, so I see. What exactly is that you are wearing?
KAY It's a pair of shorts, but it looks like a skirt. See?
SALLY Oh, yes. How original. Did you make it yourself?
KAY No
SALLY Marvellous. But, I'm just not sure it's quite "you" , Kay
KAY Oh, really , Sally? well, never mind. Perhaps , it's too... sophisticated for you
SALLY Hmm. No, I don't think it's that. But you're right - I can't see me in it somehow. Anyway, must hurry. I've got more shopping to do
KAY Well , good luck, Sally. Keep reading those magazines!
SALLY Thanks , Kay. Perhaps , you should buy some too!
On a dark, chilly night , three kids are walking down a narrow, smelling street. They suddenly see a man running toward them in terror.
The man is screaming, "Don't go down there! The witch did it! The witch did it!"
The three kid's curiosity grows, so they continue walking down the dark and narrow street.
Suddenly they see eyeballs scattered on the ground around them. They scream and run forward; after a while, they stop and want to turn back. Then, they look ahead and they see the remains of skulls, lying on the dark street. The kids think that the skulls are not real, but as they walk closer to the skulls, they see a large pile of brains in the corner. The kids run with terror into the darkness. They feel the crunching of bones under their feet. They can hear someone laughing: AAHH HA HA HA HAAAHH HA HA HA HA!!! The kids reah out into the darkness and feels a very long nose.
They discover it is a witch. Very frightened, the children stay there.
The witch slowly reaches into her pockets and exclaims: "Trick or Treat", and gives the kids pieces of candy.
You are going to listen to a young woman pointing out her friends at a party. Find the following people: Susan, Kevin, Sam and Mary.(Done in class Tuesday 23rd.)
