Because I began to study English
All began with a discussion with my colleague. He told that if you work on the computer, listened to music, the work is less boring and the time flies away. I had another opinion, I thought that listen to songs, expecially with italian lyrics, could confuse me. He said " Why you don't try ? "
and I replied " Why not ? "
There was only a problem, what kind of music ?
I asked some advices to my son, " I'm searching music to listen while I work. I would like to find cheerfull songs with english lyrics. What I can do ? " My son told me " Is it possible that you don't know what kind of music you like ? " " I like a song that I listened on TV, during an advertisement about a car " Fortunately he knew the song. It was " You are my sunshine " sung by Doris Day.
I found other songs on YouTube, and on LastFm, a radio online, and I discovered that the Country is a music for me. I don't know because, but the country feel me like I were return at home.
Infact my nickname on LastFm was countrywoman.
At this point you could ask me " But why did you begin to study English "
I wanted understand what they said. I understood only few words, and listened to " The coward of the county " I couldn't understand why Becky crying. Poor Becky, what happened to her ?
There was another reason, I watched many video on YouTube, I decided to try to make some video me too, so I needed to translate the songs. In my family the expert about English is my daughter in law, for the first time I asked her, but I was afraid to bore her, so decided to do by myself.
In the meantime I did friendship on LasFm with Roy. We excanged messages about our tastes in music, so I had another reason to learn English. We had shared many songs, he has been my first english " teacher " but this is another story .....
