I have studied this grammar point. So easy!

 And... a song where you can find these tenses. Notice them and enjoy!

 

Personal qualities

Watch the video and enjoy and understand this song by the English rock band Radiohead:

Creep by Radiohead

When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry

You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
And I wish I was special
You're so fuckin' special

But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here.

I don't care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul

I want you to notice
When I'm not around
You're so fuckin' special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here.

She's running out again,
She's running out
She's run run run run

Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so fuckin' special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo,
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here.
I don't belong here. 

 

In this film (And They Lived Happily Ever After), the song is used in this scene:

 

 

Think of these questions...

- What is the relationship between the lyrics and the movie scene?

- And between the song and the topic "Personal qualities"?

 

 

Maybe they are artists!

Some months ago we could see this romantic short movie: MAYBE.

And now my fantastic students prepared a funny second part... Congrats! You are great!

But not only that, in June they will perfom Romeo and Juliet... They are unique. 

You're alive!

Back in the 90's I confess I was a big fan of Pearl Jam's ALIVE...

But maybe this style sounds a bit old for you, and you prefer listening to the fantastic song ALIVE by SIA (Thanks, Carmen for talking to me about her!). Its lyrics are full of energy:


I knew what I wanted; I went in and got it
Did all the things that you said that I wouldn't
I told you that I would never be forgotten
And all in spite of you
I'm still breathing
i'm alive

"Hamlet"... very soon in IES Colonial...

Yes!! In June, 3º ESO will perform Hamlet, but.... not the traditional one 😄
