I was surfing the net (navegando) and I came across this video: I WILL SURVIVE by Gloria Gaynor.

Listen to it and read the lyrics (letra) below:

At first I was afraid; I was petrified,
Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side,
But then I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong,
And I grew strong, and I learned how to get along.
So you're back, from outer space
I just walked in to find you here with that sad look upon your face,
I should have changed that stupid lock,
I should have made you leave your key,
If I'd known for just one second you'd be back to bother me,
Oh and now GO! Walk out the door! Just turn around now,
'Cause you're not welcome anymore!
Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbyes,
D' you Think I'd crumble, you think I'd lay down and die?
No, not I, I will survive...oh as long as I know how to love,
I know I am still alive.
I got all my life to live, and I got all my love to give,
I will survive, hey hey!

It took all the strength I had not to fall apart,
Now I am trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart,
I spent oh so many nights just feeling sorry for myself,
I used to cry, but now I hold my head up high,
And you see me, somebody new..I am not that chained up
little person still in love with you, and so you
just felt like dropping in and just expect me to be free,
Now I am saving all my loving for someone who's loving meOh and now GO! Walk out the door! Just turn around now,
'Cause you're not welcome anymore!
Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbyes,
D' you Think I'd crumble, you think I'd lay down and die?
No, not I, I will survive,..oh as long as I know how to love,
I know I am still alive,
I got all my life to live, and I got all my love to give,
I will survive, oh yeah!

Oh and now GO! Walk out the door! Just turn around now,
'Cause you're not welcome anymore!Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbyes,
D' you Think I'd crumble, you think I'd lay down and die?
No, not I, I will survive,..oh as long as I know how to love,
I know I am still alive,
I got all my life to live, and I got all my love to give,
I will survive, oh yeah!

This song shows the end of a love story.

Pay attention to the phrases in bold. What happened to the couple? Who left who? Who is stronger now? Who has returned home?

How is this song similar to an ARGENTINE TANGO?

Post your comments and get ready for a debate next class.

Volcanic Ash from Iceland Continues to Disrupt Air Travel

2010-04-17T14:34:00.001-07:00

Read this piece of news, we are going to comment on it class.

Volcanic Ash from Iceland Continues to Disrupt Air Travel

Air travel throughout Europe and around the world is still disrupted Saturday as thick clouds of ash from a volcano eruption in Iceland continue to drift across the continent.

Some European nations have completely closed their airspace, while others have enacted partial closures. Thousands of flights have been canceled, stranding hundreds of thousands of passengers and costing airlines hundreds of millions of dollars. Officials expect air travel to be disrupted for several days.
...
The ash clouds include particles of rock, glass and sand that pose a serious threat to aircraft.

In addition to the travel problems, officials are urging people with breathing problems to stay indoors.

The shutdown of air travel is the most extensive since the terrorist attacks in the United States on September 11, 2001.
...
Wednesday's eruption of the volcano in southeastern Iceland is its second since March 20. The volcano had been dormant for nearly 200 years. Experts say it could continue to erupt for weeks or even years.

Money (that's all I want) by Pink Floyd

Money, get away
Get a good job with more pay
And your O.K.

Money, it's a gas
Grab that cash with both hands
And make a stash

New car, caviar, four star daydream
Think I'll buy me a football team

Money get back
I'm all right Jack
Keep your hands off my stack

Money, it's a hit
Don't give me that
Do goody good bullshit

I'm in the hi-fidelity
First class traveling set
And I think I need a Lear jet

(Sax and guitar solos)

Money, it's a crime
Share it fairly
But don't take a slice of my pie

Money, so they say
Is the root of all evil
Today

But if you ask for a rise
It's no surprise that they're
Giving none away
Away
Away
Away
Away...

"Hu Huh! I was in the right!"
"Yes, absolutely in the right!"
"I certainly was in the right!"
"You was definitely in the right. That geezer was cruising for a bruising!"
"Yeah!"
"Why does anyone do anything?"
"I don't know, I was really drunk at the time!"
"I was just telling him, he couldn't get into number 2. He was asking
Why he wasn't coming up on freely, after I was yelling and
Screaming and telling him why he wasn't coming up on freely.
It came as a heavy blow, but we sorted the matter out"

Read the lyrics below and answer: WHY IS "IMAGINE" A PACIFIST SONG? WHY WAS IT BANNED (PROHIBITTED) IN THE UK DURING THE MALVINAS WAR? HOW DO YOU LIKE IT?

Here go the lyrics:
Imagine there's no heaven.
It's easy if you try.
No hell below us,
Above us, only sky.
Imagine all the people
Living for today.

Imagine there's no countries.
It isn't hard to do.
Nothing to kill or die for,
And no religion too.
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace.

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one.
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one.

Imagine no possessions.
I wonder if you can.
No need for greed or hunger.
A brotherhood of man.
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world.

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one.
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one.

Everybody Is Doing It by Benjamin Zephaniah
(from 'Wicked World')
In Hawaii they Hula
They Tango in Argentina
They Reggae in Jamaica
And they Rumba down in Cuba,
In Trinidad and Tobago
They do the Calypso
And in Spain the Spanish
They really do Flamenco.

In the Punjab they Bhangra
How they dance Kathak in India
Over in Guatemala
They dance the sweet Marimba,
Even foxes dance a lot
They invented the Fox Trot,
In Australia it's true
They dance to the Didgeridoo.

In Kenya they Benga
They Highlife in Ghana
They dance Ballet all over
And Rai dance in Algeria,
They Jali in Mali
In Brazil they Samba
And the girls do Belly Dancing
In the northern parts of Africa.

Everybody does the Disco
From Baghdad to San Francisco
Many folk with razzamataz
Cannot help dancing to Jazz,
They do the Jig in Ireland
And it is really true
They still Morris dance in England
When they can find time to."

This poem was taken from: http://www.benjaminzephaniah.com/rhymin/everybody.html

How many different styles of dances can you find in the poem? Can you dance them all in Argentina? Have you ever taken dancing lessons? Can you dance any?
I'm eager to read your posts!

Our origins

Argentina is a country of immigrants. Write a brief description of your ancestors: when they arrived in this country, their nationalities, why they chose Argentina, etc.
Let's see what our roots are like!

PS: As you know some of you are immigrants, too. You can write your own story.

Argentina is a beautiful country, isn't it?

We have to write the script for this fantastic video. Watch it and choose two places (cities, areas, provinces) and write a short description of each one.
Remember to read your mates' descriptions not to repeat information!
The more we write, the better the result!
