Learning English through Music and

Songs is Fun
Learning English through music and
songs can be very enjoyable. You can mix
pleasure with learning when you listen to a
song and exploit the song as a means to
your English progress. Some underlying
reason can be drawn to support the idea
why we use songs in language learning.
Firstly, the song stuck in my head
Phenomenon (the echoing in our minds of
the last song we heard after leaving a
restaurant, shopping malls, etc) can be both
enjoyable and sometimes unnerving. This
phenomenon also seems to reinforce the
idea that songs work on our short-and-long
term memory.
Secondly, songs in general also use
simple conversational language, with a lot
of repetition, which is just what many
learners look for sample text. The fact that
they are effective makes them many times
more motivating than other text. Although
usually simple, some songs can be quite
complex
syntactically,
lexically
and
poetically, and can be analyzed in the same
way as any other literary sample.
Furthermore, song can be appropriated
by listener for their own purpose. Most pop
songs and probably many other types dont
have precise people, place or time
reference.
In addition, songs are relaxing. They
provide variety and fun, and encourage

harmony within oneself and within one

group. Little wonder they are important
tools in sustaining
culture,
religion,
patriotism, even revolution.
At least, there are many learning
activities we can do with songs such as
studying grammar, practicing selective
listening comprehension, translating songs,
learning vocabulary, spelling and culture.
So, we should start learning English by
a simple way such as through music and
songs. And it is can be enjoyable and fun.
