Music to go with Bernat’s broken glasses: Break, broke, broken
Bernat really knows how to make your imagination take off!
Well here comes some music that fits with the topic of your Catalan assignment, I could have chosen others but I decided to pick this one “walking on broken glass” because, as in Bernat’s composition, in this song there are windows, and broken glasses, and broken hearts too.
The chorus of this song by Annie Lennox is quite catchy and easy to sing. It was a hit in the 90’s and, I’m sure it will help you remember the past participle of the verb to break. BREAK, BROKE, BROKEN
Music helps, doesn’t it? Everyone in 1st ESO E knows “gone” is the past particple of the verb go, thanks to Black Eyed Peas. Go, went, gone
Annie Lennox, received in 2009 the “ WOMEN OF THE YEAR PEACE AWARD” for raising awareness of the impact of HIV and AIDS on women and children, especially in South Africa. She was very popular in the 80’s and 90’s. Now she keeps on singing and supporting humanitarian actions with her songs. You can visit her “sing” campaing site here: http://www.annielennoxsing.com/
Listen to the music and fill in the gaps in the son to get the lyrics. This you tube video uses some clips from a film version of Romeo and Juliet.
