Music as a fantastic mneno-technique.

As you have told you in the classroom , I used to learn some songs with the grammar structures I wanted to learn. I find this a perfect mneno-techique, don't you? I have given you some examples. Do you like these old "classics" ? I guess you don't, although I think beauty is timeless. They may seem very weird and old-fashioned.. you just have ti find your own songs. In case you want to remember mine, here they are: 1ST CONDITIONAL: CAT STEVEN'S MOONSHADOW http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kGNxKnLmOH4 2ND CONDITIONAL: ONE OF US By JOAN OSBORNE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Epow4VXhnW0 If God had a name, what would it be And would you call it to his faceIf you were faced with him in all his glory What would you ask if you had just one question And yeah yeah God is great yeah yeah is goodyeah yeah yeah yeah yeah What if God was one of us Just a slob like one of usJust a stranger on the bus Trying to make his way home If God had a face what would it look like And would you want to seeIf seeing meant that you would have to believe In things like heaven and in jesus and the saints and all the prophets And yeah yeah god is great yeah yeah god is goodyeah yeah yeah yeah yeah What if God was one of us Just a slob like one of us Just a stranger on the bus Trying to make his way home He's trying to make his way home Back up to heaven all alone Nobody calling on the phone Except for the pope maybe in rome And yeah yeah God is great yeah yeah God is goodyeah yeah yeah yeah yeah What if god was one of us Just a slob like one of us Just a stranger on the bus Trying to make his way home Just trying to make his way homeLike a holy rolling stoneBack up to heaven all alone Just trying to make his way home Nobody calling on the phone Except for the pope maybe in rome 3RD CONDITIONAL: ERIC CLAPTON TEARS IN HEAVEN http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRsJlAJvOSM
