Happy St. Joseph's/Father's Day!

Friday, March 19, 2010

Hi, guys!

Just in case you didn't know, today is Father's Day in Spain (in English-speaking countries they celebrate it in June), and to celebrate it I want to share two of my favourite songs with you: the first one is Father and Son, a beautiful song where the father gives advice to his son about what he's going to face in life, by British singer Cat Stevens, and the second one is Tears in Heaven, which Eric Clapton wrote for his 4-year-old son Conor, who died when he fell out of a 53rd floor window in the apartment where his mother was staying in New York City. I hope you like them!





BTW (=by the way): I just found this fantastic site where you can read and listen to real English. It's called LingQ. Registering is free, so once you register you can jump right in and start lessons. Lessons are short little dialogues, or sometimes short descriptions that link every word to a dictionary, so you can build vocabulary and pick up grammar on your own. You can also write things and have them corrected by a tutor, and also speak in English with a tutor, but this isn't a free service.
