Hello! I'm Lyrkit!

I tried many ways to memorize English words and found the most effective one for me!

We already have all the words of the songs that we have heard throughout our lives in our memory. We simply did not pay attention to them, but we all already hear them!

I noticed that when you learn a new word from a song that you have already heard before, you already know the translation of this word forever and you will never forget it!

I want to share this method with you. So, the scheme is as follows.

We find songs that we have already heard.

We add all unfamiliar words from them.

We pass mini tests of memory games. done

Now that you know a lot of words, you will very quickly come to know the whole language!

I bet you'll be surprised how effective this method is!)

Affection

 

Affection

(album: I'm So Confused - 1998)


People all over the world
People all over the world
People all over the world are starving
For affection

And to me this ain't funny
To me this is real
So I tell everybody
The way I feel about affection

Well, I've starved before for affection
I blamed the world and it's partly the world's fault
That's true
But I was a star who said
"I don't have time for those people"
So it was partly my own fault too

Well, then I relaxed a little
And I met more people who liked me
That gave me the courage to reach out and give
And that helped me to get more affection
And affection helped me to live
So I say

People all over the world they're good
People all over the world ain't bad
If everybody be snobs like I've been
They won't get what they wished they had
Affection

People are starving just to be touched, you mean
People are starving just to be hugged and kissed
Well, you've got radios and magazines and cars
And there's telephones and books everywhere
But plain old affection sits there over in the corner
And it says
"Hmm, it's like they've forgotten that I'm there"
You know it takes gall to reach out and try affection
On people who maybe want your touch but you can't tell
Cause they can laugh and that's like rejection
And you probably won't like that very well
But I say

People all over the world they're good
People all over the world ain't bad
If everybody keeps on chickening out
They won't get what they wished they had
Affection

"Jonathan you're scaring us
We think this is the part of the song
Where everyone had to do the group hug and stuff
We don't even like our neighbour"
"Is that what we have to do now?"
"Nope, don't worry, nah, no that's no good"
"Don't worry we're not gonna do that"
"Okay, then what's this song about anyway?"
"It's just if you do feel like it don't chicken out, that's all"
"Is that all you're saying?"
"Yeah"
"Oh, okay"

People all over the world
People all over the world
People all over the world are starving
For affection
