Weida "Gemini Perspective"
Good Song Appreciation ---- in the process of listening to and singing English songs, practice listening and speaking English.
The backstage teachers of "Gemini Perspective" have been pushing to listen to singing, English songs, as a learning method to improve their English level. Because to learn a language, you must have a language environment that allows you to immerse yourself in it for a long time; and this column is a platform that is completely free from the restrictions of time and space, so that you can practice at any time and place: walking on the road, on the traffic, in the shower, when making meals, etc., you can listen to songs and sing along --- This is the best environment for learning and practicing languages! After a long period of immersion, there will be an improvement in the ability to listen and speak. Then when you hear a new English song, you will naturally be able to understand the content of the lyrics.
Moreover, most of the nostalgic English songs recommended by "Gemini Perspective" are slower and easier to master; and most of them have story content, simple and beautiful words, and correct grammar. It is worth using as a reference for English learning. At the back of each song, the learning points are also integrated, and some places worth paying attention to give the friends a wake-up call.
"Blowing in the Wind" is a 1962 work by Bob Dylan, who, when publishing the song, emphasized that it was a song of "protest, demonstration", and the lyrics used a series of questions to bring out the concept of "to be peaceful, to stop war and freedom". And the chorus says: "The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind." It is a vague and ambiguous expression, leaving a space for everyone to think.
Oh my friend! The answer blows in the wind!
This song is worthy of everyone's deep consideration, and has since been sung by many different singers, including Peter, Paul and Mary, and female singer Joan Baez. Now Xiaobian shares with you the version of Joan Baez, I hope you also like it!
