Anything you can do ....

      This is a grammar point we have seen recently that you seem to need a bit of help with.

I have selected these songs, but I want your opinion. So listen to them and express yourselves.

      I would like you to vote the best , but you will have to convince the other readers of this blog.  Even if you don't like them, remember we want to learn, therefore, let's vote for the one that helps you best with this grammar point.

Hello!
First of all, I admit I´m not used to listening this kind of music, but I´ve listened to every song.

To my mind, the best song to learn this grammar point is "You got it". To begin with, I think it´s quite repetitive, what let us fix in our minds these structures.
Besides, we can find a few examples related to things we were talking about in class: "Every time I hold you", "everything about you", "anything you want", "no one can do"...
In short, it´s a song full of useful words, isn´t it?

What´s your favourite?

I'll vote for Meat Loaf, his song let us revise the use of anything"Iwould do anything for love,as "as long as the planet are turning, as long as the stars..." and would better + bare infinitive "you'd better believe it". Finally it allows me to travel back in time. When I listened to it again, I returned to the early nineties at once and it's priceless.

My vote is going to...anything but ordinary, it has transcript and I can understand whole song, je je. It is enough to learn...
However I like too You got it, It make me good memories.

I must say that I spent a good evening listening to these songs.
It's a good way to learn English. I like it. Thank you very much.
My vote goes to "You got it". It's a beautiful song and the performer is well known for me, may be for the legendary film "Pretty Woman".

Unlike everyone else I utterly love "Anything you can do, I can do better" because it's really funny, it needs great performers and it helped me revise the comparatives.

And thaaaaaaank you teacher for introducing something by James, one of my favorite bands ever!!!

Whoo, it's so difficult for me to make a choice! I really like four of them "Anything you can do" because it's so funny, "anything goes" because of the tap-dancing performance and the retro style, "I´d do anything for love" because it's pure rock and roll and "You got it" because of the legend ;)
However, I don't like the Avril Lavigne's one at all. I find it too commercial and superficial...
But, if I had to vote for one of them, I suppose I’d choose “You got it”, because of the feeling it inspires to me.

Anyway, I've enjoyed listen to tose tracks !

The only two songs I knew were You got it and I'd do anything for love. I listen to them in RockFm radio almost everyday. After watching the videoclip, I even love more I'd do anything for love.
