very weird question that needs to be answered Ok here I am with the next strange question. You may laugh if you want, but still... help will be appreciated !
On Monday I have to teach English, to a bunch of 16-year-old. The big problem is that the topic the teacher gave me is 'THE MODAL AUXILIARIES' I hate grammar, but I have to do this, and this class will have me as their teacher a second time later on... so I can't make a fool out of myself. So I want to cheer them up, with a song containing many modal auxiliaries. They'll have to look for them and then we'll listen to the song. I know it's not great, but still... HELP ! Any songs you got in mind?? (remember : shall, should, will, would, may, might, can, could, must, need, ought to, used to, dare...) | |

LeAnn Rimes ~ "One Way Ticket" (judy rodman/keith hinton) Standing on the border Looking out into the great unknown I can feel my heart beating faster as I step out on my own There’s a new horizon and the promise of favorable wind I’m heading out tonight, traveling light I’m gonna start all over again And buy a one way ticket on a west bound train See how far I can go (because I can) I’m gonna go out dancing in the pouring rain And talk to someone I don’t know (because I can) I will face the world around me Knowing that I’m strong enough to let you go And I will fall in love again Because I can Gonna climb the mountain And look the eagle in the eye I won’t let fear clip my wings and tell me how high I can fly How could I have ever believed That love had to be so blind When freedom was waiting, down at the station All I had to do was make up my mind And buy a one way ticket on a west bound train See how far I can go (because I can) I’m gonna go out dancing in the pouring rain And talk to someone I don’t know (because I can) I will face the world around me Knowing that I’m strong enough to let you go And I will fall in love again Because I can Well, I have walked through the fire And crawled on my knees through the valley of the shadow of doubt Then the truth came shining like a light on me and now I can see my way out I’m gonna buy a one way ticket on a west bound train See how far I can go (because I can) I’m gonna go out dancing in the pouring rain And talk to someone I don’t know I’m gonna buy a one way ticket on a west bound train Gonna have my breakfest with some pink champagne I’m gonna sail the ocean, I’m gonna spread my wings I’m gonna climb that mountain, gonna do everything hope that was helpful... | |

To give you an idea what I'm talking about...
BEATLES - A Little Help From My Friends A little help from my friends What would you think if I sang out of tune, Would you stand up and walk out on me. Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song, And I'll try not to sing out of key. I get by with a little help from my friends, I get high with a little help from my friends, Going to try with a little help from my friends. What do I do when my love is away. (Does it worry you to be alone) How do I feel by the end of the day (Are you sad because you're on your own) No I get by with a little help from my friends, Do you need anybody, I need somebody to love. Could it be anybody I want somebody to love. Would you believe in a love at first sight... | |
