Description

For several reasons, listening to songs while following the lyrics is a great way to learn language. First, songs are short and easy to repeat. Therefore, it is fairly easy to go back and replay a line you missed. Second, song lyrics are conversational. In many ways lyrics mimic speech. Often, though, lyrics are sung more slowly and more clearly than spoken language. For these reasons and others, songs are a great learning tool.
