2010-07-15T16:31:00.003+01:00

HERE YOU MAY READ THE LYRICS AND GET TO KNOW THE STORY AND NEW WORDS TOO!

If I told you things I did before
Told you how I used to be
Would you go along with someone like me?
If you knew my story word for word
Had all of my history
Would you go along with someone like me?

I did before and had my share
It didn't lead nowhere
I would go along with someone like you
It doesn't matter what you did
Who you were hanging with
We could stick around and see this night through

And we don't care about the young folks
Talkin' 'bout the young style
And we don't care about the old folks
Talkin' 'bout the old style too
And we don't care about their own faults
Talkin' 'bout our own style
All we care 'bout is talking
Talking only me and you

Usually when things has gone this far
People tend to disappear
No one will surprise me unless you do
I can tell there's something goin' on
Hours seem to disappear
Everyone is leaving I'm still with you
It doesn't matter what we do
Where we are going to
We can stick around and see this night through

And we don't care about the young folks
Talkin' 'bout the young style
And we don't care about the old folks
Talkin' 'bout the old style too
And we don't care about their own faults
Talkin' 'bout our own style
All we care 'bout is talking
Talking only me and you

And we don't care about the young folks
Talkin' 'bout the young style
And we don't care about the old folks
Talkin' 'bout the old style too
And we don't care about their own faults
Talkin' 'bout our own style
All we care 'bout is talking
Talking only me and you
Talking only me and you
Talking only me and you
Talking only me and you

Is he strong? Listen Bud He's got radioactive blood
Can he swing from a thread ? Take a look overhead
Hey, there! There goes the Spiderman

In the chill of the night At the scene of a crime
Like a streak of light He arrives just in time

Spiderman, Spiderman Friendly neighborhood, Spiderman
Wealth and fame he ignores Action is his reward
Look out, here comes the Spiderman

Wealth and fame, he ignores Action is his reward
To him, life's a great big bang up Whenever there's a
hang up
You'll find the Spiderman!

2009-11-05T00:31:00.001Z

Guy Fawkes (13th April 1570 – 31st January 1606), also known as Guido Fawkes, the name he adopted while fighting for the Spanish in the Low Countries, belonged to a group of Roman Catholic restorationists from England who planned the Gunpowder Plot of 1605. Their aim was to displace Protestant rule by blowing up the Houses of Parliament while King James I and the entire Protestant, and even most of the Catholic, aristocracy and nobility were inside. The conspirators saw this as a necessary reaction to the systematic discrimination against English Catholics.

The Gunpowder Plot was led by Robert Catesby, but Fawkes was put in charge of its execution. He was arrested a few hours before the planned explosion, during a search of the cellars underneath Parliament in the early hours of 5 November prompted by the receipt of an anonymous warning letter.
Guy Fawkes Night (or "bonfire night"), held on 5th November in the United Kingdom and some parts of the Commonwealth, is a commemoration of the plot, during which an effigy of Fawkes is burned, often accompanied by a fireworks display. The word "guy", meaning "man" or "person", is derived from his name (Guido)

HALLOWEEN

2009-10-27T22:24:00.000Z

No dia 31 de Outubro comemora-se o Halloween. Uma tradição que começou em Inglaterra. Nesse dia comemora-se o DIA DAS BRUXAS. As pessoas vestem-se a rigor. É habitual fazerem abóboras engraçadas (Jack O’Lanterns). Nesse dia costuma-se pregar partidas, algumas assustadoras. Em certos sítios, um grupo de amigos junta-se e vai bater às portas dizendo: DOCE OU TRAVESSURA; a resposta tem de ser DOCE caso contrário esse grupo prega-lhes uma partida.

Os disfarces mais habituais são vampiros e bruxas. Mas também se pode usar o disfarce de fantasma ou outras coisas. O que interessa é que seja assustador.

Vou dar-te uma dica para o próximo Halloween: fazeres um fantasma… não é difícil, eu explico-te:

1- Pega numa folha em branco de papel cavalinho

2- Em seguida corta as partes de baixo em tiras finas

3- Faz uns olhos e uma boca

4- Pega nas 2 pontas de cima e agrafa-as

5- Põe - lhe um fio para pendurares onde quiseres

Vais ver que vai ficar fixe.

Ten things you can do to improve your English!

2009-06-19T22:47:00.002+01:00

1. Review. I know it’s boring, but it’s absolutely essential to language learning. Don’t bother to learn new words if you aren’t going to review. It’s a waste of time if you aren’t committed to reviewing your material.

2. Listen. The more you listen, the more you’ll remember.

3. Use your new vocabulary or lose it! Concentrate on a few new words each day and try to use them in different sentences. Write a couple of sentences to help you remember the vocabulary. Use new vocabulary in conversation and writing. The more you use it, the easier it is to remember.

4. Learn how to paraphrase. Try describing a word with other words.

5. Record something in English and repeat, repeat, repeat. Don’t just record your English class. Record a song to challenge yourself. Keep repeating it until you can repeat it at the same speed as the native speaker. The more you repeat, the more fluent you will sound. You don’t realize how many mistakes you make until you listen to a recording of yourself.

6. Practice linking words and expressions. Use contractions and weakened forms whenever you can.

7. Read, read, read. Read something you’ll enjoy. Books, magazines and newspapers aren’t your only source for reading. English is everywhere. Learn a song or poem. Try a menu, a recipe or learn some funny jokes.

8. Read aloud. There’s no better way to practice and it will help you pick out mistakes.

9. Flashcards. They really do work! Make flashcards for eight to ten new vocabulary words once a week. Tape them to your wall and practice making a new sentence with them each day.

10. Recycle your vocabulary. Review, review, review! Don’t assume you’ve learned it after you think you’ve perfected it. Practice makes perfect.

That's why this song, unfortunately, is still up to date.
