Improve your English Listening Skill Through The Music

I recommend you to choose a song that you really like because you are going to work with it very deeply.
Once you have chosen one, try to memorize the lyrics and sing along with the song.
When you have internalized the song, it’s time to look for covers on YouTube.

What Is A Cover?

For those of you who don’t know what a cover is…
It’s when a band or singer makes a new version of a song written from someone else.
The band or singer making the cover try to introduce their personal style to the song. The new version can be quite similar or so different that it’s even difficult to recognize the original song.

Why This Strategy Is Going To Help You?

In one hand it’s funny to listen to different version of your favorite songs.
In the other hand you are going to work your listening skill deeply because you listen to a song sung by:

• Singers with different accents.
• Singers with different styles.
• Singers from different countries.
• Singers with different pronunciations.
• Male & female singers.
• …

It’s like the English language in the real world…

• Different English accents
• Different kind of voices (male & female, young, old…)
• Different pronunciations
• …

Be aware that some words or sentences that are difficult to understand in a song can be easily catch in a different version.
