New Radicals - You Get What You Give

Wake up kids
We've got the dreamers disease
Age 14 we got you down on your knees
So polite, you're busy still saying please
Frienemies, who when you're down ain't your friend
Every night we smash their Mercedes-Benz
First we run; and then we laugh till we cry
But when the night is falling
and you cannot find the light
If you feel your dream is dying
Hold tight
Chorus:
You've got the music in you
Don't let go
You've got the music in you
One dance left
This world is gonna pull through
Don't give up
You've got a reason to live
Can't forget
we only get what we give
Four a.m. we ran a miracle mile
we're flat broke but hey we do it in style
The bad rich
God's flying in for your trial
But when the night is falling
and you cannot find a friend
You feel your tree is breaking
Just then
(chorus)
This whole damn world can fall apart
You'll be ok, follow your heart
You're in harms way I'm right behind
Now say you're mine
(chorus)
Don't let go
We feel the music in you
Fly high
What's real can't die
You only get what you give
Just don't be afraid to leave
Health insurance rip off lying FDA big bankers buying

Fake computer crashes dining
Cloning while they're multiplying
Fashion shoots with Beck and Hanson
Courtney Love, and Marilyn Manson
You're all fakes
Run to your mansions
Come around
We'll kick your ass in!
Don't let go

This is an extremely funny video of Steve Martin trying to learn English :-) The footage is presumably from the Pink Panther movie.

Magdalen Graal - There's No End

Magdalen Graal

THERE'S NO END - lyrics

It's raining in your eyes
It's raining in your heart
It's raining in your life
But I don't think for ever

One smile is on your mouth
But you are crying again
The joy is in your voice
But now you cry
You cry again

Don't cry little rose
Tomorrow is another day
The dark will go away
Away

The silence around you
My little rose alone
For you there's not a prayer
But all the power of your heart

Don't be so sad tonight
Your life will change believe me now

Don't cry little rose
Tomorrow is another day
The dark will go away
Away

Your eyes
You cry
Another day
Don't cry again

Don't cry little rose
Tomorrow is another day
The dark will go away

Don't cry my little rose
Tomorrow is another day
The future is in your hands
There's no end
There's no end
There's no end

Listen to my heart
As it follows a dream
And it leads to a place

A dream that only I can know

Wear Sunscreen

Everybodys Free (To Wear Sunscreen) Sims Music Video


WEAR SUNSCREEN (Use filtro solar)

"Ladies and gentlemen of the class of '97:

Wear sunscreen.

If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it. The long-term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists, whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience. I will dispense this advice now.

Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth. Oh, never mind. You will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they've faded. But trust me, in 20 years, you'll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you can't grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked. You are not as fat as you imagine.

Don't worry about the future. Or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubble gum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind, the kind that blindside you at 4 p.m. on some idle Tuesday.

Do one thing every day that scares you.

Sing.

Don't be reckless with other people's hearts. Don't put up with people who are reckless with yours.

Floss.

Don't waste your time on jealousy. Sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind. The race is long and, in the end, it's only with yourself.

Remember compliments you receive. Forget the insults. If you succeed in doing this, tell me how.

Keep your old love letters. Throw away your old bank statements.

Stretch.

Don't feel guilty if you don't know what you want to do with your life. The most interesting people I know didn't know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives. Some of the most interesting 40-year-olds I know still don't.

Get plenty of calcium. Be kind to your knees. You'll miss them when they're gone.

Maybe you'll marry, maybe you won't. Maybe you'll have children, maybe you won't. Maybe you'll divorce at 40, maybe you'll dance the funky chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary. Whatever you do, don't congratulate yourself too much, or berate yourself either. Your choices are half chance. So are everybody else's.

Enjoy your body. Use it every way you can. Don't be afraid of it or of what other people think of it. It's the greatest instrument you'll ever own.

Dance, even if you have nowhere to do it but your living room.

Read the directions, even if you don't follow them.

Do not read beauty magazines. They will only make you feel ugly.

Get to know your parents. You never know when they'll be gone for good. Be nice to your siblings. They're your best link to your past and the people most likely to stick with you in the future.

Understand that friends come and go, but with a precious few you should hold on. Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography and lifestyle, because the older you get, the more you need the people who knew you when you were young.

Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard. Live in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft. Travel.

Accept certain inalienable truths: Prices will rise. Politicians will philander. You, too, will get old. And when you do, you'll fantasize that when you were young, prices were reasonable, politicians were noble and children respected their elders.

Respect your elders.

Don't expect anyone else to support you. Maybe you have a trust fund. Maybe you'll have a wealthy spouse. But you never know when either one might run out.

Don't mess too much with your hair or by the time you're 40 it will look 85.

Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia. Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

But trust me on the sunscreen"

Modal verbs

Inglês com música - Cliff richard - We don't talk anymore

A light approach to the use of some Modal, Semi-modal and Auxiliary Verbs in Cliff Richard's "We Don't Talk Anymore" song.
Note: you should take a look at an English Grammar book for an entire learning on how to form (structure) these verbs.
This activity aims at language practice of the use of Modal, Semi-modal and Auxiliary verbs in English. I hope it can be useful for you.
Teacher Laurindo

In general, Modal verbs are used to express ideas such as possibility, intention, obligation and necessity. They are:
· can, could
· may, might
· will, would,
· shall, should
· must
· ought to

Semi-modal verbs are called so because they are partly like modal verbs and partly like main verbs. They are:
· need
· dare
· used to

The Auxiliary verbs are used to make sentences negative and to ask questions. They are:
· be
· do
· have

Some of the Modal, Semi-modal and Auxiliary verbs present in Cliff Richard's "We Don't Talk Anymore" song have the following general meaning:

USED TO
We use "USED TO" to express past habits which no longer happen in present or for something that was true but is not true any more.
Ex: "USED TO think that life was sweet..."

CAN/CAN'T
We use CAN/CAN'T to say that something is/is not possible or that somebody has/doesn't have the ability to do something.
Ex: "I CAN'T believe you'd throw it away".

HAD
The verb form HAD is used to form the Past Perfect tense of other main verbs, and is used to express an action that took place BEFORE another one in the past.
Ex: "(I) Used to feel we HAD it MADE."

COULD
In general, COULD is the past form of CAN and usually refers to GENERAL ABILITY or PERMISSION TO DO SOMETHING.
Ex: "Used to feel we could sail away,"

DO
We use DO/DOES to make (affirmative) question. Ex: "Do you know what you've done(?)"
Don't/Doesn't= We use DON'T/DOESN'T to make
negative sentence or questionss.
Ex: "It's so funny how we don't talk anymore."

HAVE
This verb form helps to form THE PRESENT PERFECT TENSE and is used to indicate a connection between a past action and the present time of speaking.
Ex: "Do you know what you'VE (=HAVE) done?"

AIN'T
This is a very common expression in spoken English.

Here it is a contracted form for AM NOT, and is being used to form THE PRESENT CONTINUOUS TENSE to indicate that an action is or is not on the course at a specific point of time.
Ex: "But I ain't losing sleep and I aint counting sheep."

Now let's go through the song context to recognize the use of these verb forms. I hope you enjoy this activity

WE DON'T TALK ANYMORE (Cliff Richard)

USED TO think that life was sweet,
USED TO think we were so complete,
I CAN'T believe you'd throw it away.

USED TO feel we had it made,
USED TO feel we could sail away,
CAN you imagine how I feel today?

Well it seems a long time ago
You were the lonely one,
Now it comes to letting go
You are the only one,
DO you know what you've done?

It's so funny how we DON'T talk anymore,
It's so funny how we DON'T talk anymore,

But I AIN'T losing sleep
And I AIN'T counting sheep,
It's so funny how we DON'T talk anymore.

Well it really DOESN'T matter to me,
I guess your leaving was meant to be,
It's down to you now you wanna be free,

Well I hope you know which way to go
You're on your own again,
And DON'T come crying to me
When you're the lonely one,
Remember what you'VE done.

It's so funny how we DON'T talk anymore,
It's so funny how we DON'T talk anymore,

But I AIN'T losing sleep
And I AIN'T counting sheep,
It's so funny how we DON'T talk anymore.

But I AIN'T losing sleep
And I AIN'T counting sheep,
It's so funny how we DON'T talk anymore.

But I AIN'T losing sleep
And I AIN'T counting sheep,
It's so funny how we DON'T talk anymore.

Uh, Uh, Uh, Uh!

Earth Day

In Tune With Mother Nature

If you listen for the songbirds
As they greet the summer sun,
And love the way the wind can make
The trees sings just for fun;

If you like to hear the ocean
As it drums upon the shore,
And imagine all the whales out there,
And hope they'll sing some more;

If you think of all the animals
As players in a band,
Each with a lovely tune to play,
All needed on the land;

And know that as a boy or girl
A woman or a man
You have a vital role to play
In Mother Nature's plan;

If you honor every living thing
As a part of nature's treasure
You're in tune with Mother Nature
So let's all sing her song together.
