Welcome!

This site is for my students (again!)
In this blog, I want to show you that you can learn English in a different way! All you have to do is to listen to some songs, read lyrics, watch music videos, read about your favourite bands (Ok, maybe rather MY favourite bands!) sing karaoke, listen to the radio etc... and I even added some guitar videos, or guitar chords.
Anyway, I hope you can find something useful, interesting or fun in here!

Paint It Black!

15 September, 2009

Revise the colours with this song!
the original creators of this song are the Rolling Stones! The song dates back to 1966!
This is a cover by Inkubus Sukkubus. I never heard about this band before. It sounds a little gothic.. so it's funny, isn't it?!




and here is a cover by Gob

If you want to try it on the guitar, here are the chords!
Em                       H7
     I see a red door and I want it painted black
    Em                     H7
     No colours anymore I want them to turn black
    Em   D      G          D         Em
     I see the girls walk by dressed it their summer clothes
    Em    D     G      D       A7              H7
     I have to turn my head until my darkness goes

     I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
     With flowers and my love both never to come back
     I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
     Like a new born baby it just happen every day

     I look inside myself and see my heart is black
     I see my red door and I want it painted black
     Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
     It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black

     No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
     I could not foresee this thing happening to you
     If I look hard enogh into the setting sun
     My love will laugh with me before the morning comes
