How long...

Present Perfect Simple And Present Perfect Continuous

How long  by  ACE

 

How long has this been goin' on?
How long has this been goin' on?

Well your frriends with their fancy persuasions
Can't admit that it's part of a scheme
But I can't help but have my suspicions
'Cause I ain't quite as dumb as I seem

And you said you were never intendin'
To break up our secret this way
But there ain't any use in pretendin'
It could happen to us any day

How long has this been goin' on? 4X

Repeat

(CHORUS:)

We are family

I've got all my sisters with me

We are family

Get up everybody and sing

Everyone can see we're together

As we walk on by

...and we fly just like birds of a feather

I won't tell no lie

...all of the people around us they say

Can they be that close

Just let me state for the record

We're giving love in a family dose

(CHORUS x2)

Living life is fun and we've just begun

To get our share of this world's delights

(HIGH!) high hopes we have for the future

And our goal's in sight

(WE!) no we don't get depressed

Here's what we call our golden rule

Have faith in you and the things you do

You won't go wrong

This is our family Jewel

(REPEAT CHORUS TO FADE)

Enjoy yourselves this weekend!

Song Listening

I always recommend my dear students to listen to songs in English so as to improve their learning.

This song I've always loved.  I learnt it  by heart when I was only 15! 

Today I wanted to share it with all of you.

I hope you like it too!

 Lyrics

  My   Melancholy Blues  (Freddie Mercury)

Another party's over
And I'm left cold sober
My baby left me for somebody new
I don't wanna talk about it
Want to forget about it
Wanna be intoxicated with that special brew
So come and get me
Let me
Get in that sinking feeling
That says my heart is on an all time low - so
Don't expect me
To behave perfectly
And wear that sunny smile
My guess is I'm in for a cloudy and overcast
Don't try and stop me
'Cause I'm heading for that stormy weather soon
I'm causing a mild sensation
With this new occupation
I'm permanently glued
To this extraordinary mood, so now move over
And let me take over
With my melancholy blues
       ¯ ¯¯

I'm causing a mild sensation
With this new occupation
I'm in the news
I'm just getting used to my new exposure
Come into my enclosure
And meet my melancholy blues.                                      CHEERS,  FREDDIE, wherever you are!  J

Rhythm

Old songs some of us might love! And.. with so much rhythm!

CLICK HERE if you cannot watch the video

This is the rhythm of the night

 the night -Oh yeah

The rhythm of the night

This is the rhythm of my life- my life
Oh yeah
The rhythm of my life

You put some joy upon my face
Oh sunshine in an empty place
Take me to turn to and babe I'll make you stay

Oh I can ease you of your pain
Feel you give me love again
Round and round we go, each time I hear you say

This is the rhythm of the night
The night, oh yeah
The rhythm of the night
This is the rhythm of my life
My life, oh yeah
The rhythm of my life
- . - .
Won't you teach me how to love and learn
There'll be nothing left for me to yearn
Think of me and burn and let me hold your hand

I don't wanna face the world in tears
Please think again I'm on my knees
Sing that song to me
No reason to repent

I know you wanna say it

This is the rhythm of the night
The night, oh yeah
The rhythm of the night
This is the rhythm of my life
My life, oh yeah
The rhythm of my life
