sky full of stars



Let me share this music with you. Of course it has teaching purposes. I want you to listen to it and enjoy the pronunciation, then, in a few days you will have an exercise to do with it.

I'd seen this video previously a couple of times because it caught my attention for its colorful. Amazing.
But I wonder which is the challenge.

I like it! Thanks!

I'd seen the video and I think that we have to differentiate between diferent kind of vowel sounds like long 'a' and short 'a'.

Concha, I don't agree with you.
I think the challenge is to pay attention to the expression:
" Cause you're a sky..."

Anónimo dijo...

Beautiful song!! I think the challenge it is to practise "s" (cause, sky, stars) and structures like "the more" "I want to" "such a".
All in one! :)

I love the video clip and the rhythm but I need to read the lyric to understand it.

I really love this song! It's amazing´! well, I agree with Concha, I think the challenge could be the contraction of the word ´because´

You are right, there are lots of words starting with /s/ like sky, stars and by listening carefully to the song I hope we can get rid of the /e/ you feel the need to pronounce when you say words like those.
And, there are examples of comparatives, such, do for emphasis, phrasal verbs and informal ways to say because, want to or going to. Can you spot those examples?
I am sure you can!!!

It´s a bit late but I think I have found some examples of comparatives, such and informal ways to say because:
Because = Cause
Comparative: Cause you get lighter the more it gets dark
Such: Such a Heavenly view
