14. 0:35Tell me, do you like music?
15. 0:38Write down below, do you like music?
16. 0:39Because I
17. 0:41I love music. I love listening to music.
18. 0:46I like a lot of songs. I like a lot of
19. 0:50artists. I listen to music every day. I
20. 0:53listen to sad music.
21. 0:55I listen to upbeat music. I listen to
22. 0:58angry music. Ah.
23. 1:00I listen to all kinds of music, and I
24. 1:03love to listen to music
25. 1:07in other languages, not just English.
26. 1:11But, you can use music to learn English.
27. 1:16But, how can you do this?
28. 1:17Because a lot of people
29. 1:20do the wrong things. A lot of people do
30. 1:23not know how to learn English from their
31. 1:26favorite songs. Just listening to music
32. 1:30in English won't teach you any English.
33. 1:33If you just listen, the secret to
34. 1:36learning English from your favorite
35. 1:37songs is looking at the lyrics or
36. 1:41looking at the text.
37. 1:43And when you study the lyrics, you will
38. 1:47actually understand
39. 1:50what the artist or the singer is saying.
40. 1:53And here's why.
41. 1:55When you listen to a song, there is no
42. 1:58context. Right now, this is a video and
43. 2:01there is there is context to what I'm
44. 2:05saying
45. 2:06because I'm using my hands. I'm using my
46. 2:09hands to explain to you
47. 2:12what I'm saying.
48. 2:14My hands are the context.
49. 2:17But when you listen to music
50. 2:20there is no context. The only way to
51. 2:23understand what the singer is saying
52. 2:26is by looking up the lyrics.
53. 2:29And if you don't know the lyrics, maybe
54. 2:31you don't know this word or this phrase
55. 2:34or maybe the singer is using an English
56. 2:37idiom
57. 2:38and you don't understand.
58. 2:40What you can do is look up the meaning.
59. 2:42And then the next time you listen to the
60. 2:45song think or remember the meaning.
61. 2:48Don't translate it into your first
62. 2:51language.
63. 2:52Just think
64. 2:54what is the artist saying here?
65. 2:56Okay. I understand. But, and this is
66. 2:59important, you will not remember the
67. 3:02entire meaning of the song after looking
68. 3:05at the lyrics once. So, don't worry if
69. 3:08you look at the lyrics and the next day
70. 3:10you listen to the song
71. 3:12and you don't remember everything. You
72. 3:15don't understand what the singer is
73. 3:16saying. That's okay. That's normal. You
74. 3:20have to look at the lyrics multiple
75. 3:22times. And the more times that you look
76. 3:25at the lyrics, you study the songs
77. 3:29the more you will remember.
78. 3:32The easier it will be to understand the
79. 3:35singer or the artist. So, the first time
80. 3:39you hear a song in English you won't
81. 3:41understand a lot.
82. 3:43Or it will be hard to understand what
83. 3:46the singer is saying or what the artist
84. 3:49is saying. But, when you look at the
85. 3:51lyrics in English,
86. 3:53you'll remember more. And then, when you
87. 3:55look at the translated lyrics, meaning
88. 3:58the lyrics in your first or your native
89. 4:01language, and then back to the lyrics in
90. 4:03English, you will understand a lot more.
91. 4:07But, not 100%.
92. 4:10That's why you have to look at the
93. 4:12lyrics again and again to understand
94. 4:17more and more. This way, every time you
95. 4:21listen to the song again and again, you
96. 4:24literally know
97. 4:26what the singer or the artist is saying,
98. 4:30which is
99. 4:31crazy. It's
100. 4:33beautiful. It's amazing, because it's
101. 4:36art. You can understand somebody singing
102. 4:39about love or heartbreak
103. 4:43in English. And then, in your life, in
104. 4:46your real life, in your everyday life,
105. 4:49you can talk about love or heartbreak or
106. 4:53whatever,
107. 4:55because you learned the words
108. 4:59or that vocabulary from your favorite
109. 5:02songs. Just remember, you have to study
110. 5:05the text or the lyrics. You have to look
111. 5:08at the words of the song and think about
112. 5:12the meaning. It works the exact same as
113. 5:16this. English everyday. You listen and
114. 5:19you watch this video once,
115. 5:22and then you save it,
116. 5:24and then you watch it again tomorrow,
117. 5:27and next week, and next week, you will
118. 5:30have learned so many words from just 5
119. 5:34minutes.
