A falta de poder hablar con nativos, escuchar canciones o visualizar películas son dos de las mejores formas para mejorar vuestro oído. Además, en el caso de escuchar canciones como Stand by me, de Oasis (cuarto corte del LP Be Here Now, 1997) y con la letra que os dejamos vais a mejorar vuestra pronunciación y aprenderéis vocabulario.
Ubicamos este pequeño ejercicio en el nivel B2 porque, aunque tiene un rico vocabulario no hay demasiadas contracciones o frases coloquiales de niveles superiores. Seguro que si estáis en nivel First vais a entender gran parte de la canción. Sólo tenéis que dar al Play en el vídeo siguiente e ir leyendo la letra de la canción que hay debajo.
Letra Stand by me, Oasis
Made a meal and threw it up on Sunday
I’ve got a lot of things to learn
Said I would and I’ll be leaving one day
Before my heart starts to burn
So what’s the matter with you?
Sing me something new
Don’t you know the cold and wind and rain don’t know?
They only seem to come and go away
Times are hard when things have got no meaning
I’ve found a key upon the floor
Maybe you and I will not believe
In the things we find behind the door
So what’s the matter with you?
Sing me something new
Don’t you know the cold and wind and rain don’t know?
They only seem to come and go away
Stand by me
Nobody knows
The way it’s gonna be
Stand by me
Nobody knows
The way it’s gonna be
Stand by me
Nobody knows
The way it’s gonna be
Stand by me
Nobody knows
Yeah, nobody knows
The way it’s gonna be
If you’re leaving, will you take me with you?
I’m tired of talking on my phone
There is one thing I could never give you
My heart will never be your home
So what’s the matter with you?
Sing me something new
Don’t you know the cold and wind and rain don’t know?
They only seem to come and go away
Stand by me
Nobody knows
The way it’s gonna be
Stand by me
Nobody knows
The way it’s gonna be
Stand by me
Nobody knows
The way it’s gonna be
Stand by me
Nobody knows
Yeah, nobody knows
The way it’s gonna be
The way it’s gonna be, yeah
Maybe I can see, yeah
Don’t you know the cold and wind and rain don’t know?
They only seem to come and go away
Stand by me
Nobody knows
The way it’s gonna be
Stand by me
Nobody knows
The way it’s gonna be
Stand by me
Nobody knows
The way it’s gonna be
Stand by me
Nobody knows
Yeah, God only knows
The way it’s gonna be.
