Sing Our Own


song: “Sing Our Own
Song”
group: Ub40
The great flood of tears
that we’ve cried
For our brothers and
sisters who’ve died
Over four hundred years
Has washed away our
fears, and strengthened
our pride, now we turn
back the tide.
We will no longer
hear your command
We will seize the control
from your hand
We will fan the flame
Of our anger and pain
And you’ll feel the shame
For what you do
in God’s name.
We will fight
for the right to be free;
We will build our own
society; And we will sing,
we will sing; We will sing
our own song
When the ancient
drum rhythms ring
The voice of our
forefathers sings
Forward Africa run
Our day of freedom has
come, for me and for you
Amandla awethu.
We will no longer
hear your command
We will seize the control
from your hand
We will fan the flame
Of our anger and pain
And you’ll feel the shame
For what you do
in God’s name.
We will fight
for the right to be free
We will build our own
society; And we will sing,
we will sing; We will sing
our own song.

SPEAK ENGLISH WITH SONGS


song: “Daydream
Believer”
group: The Monkees
Oh, I could hide
‘neath the wings
Of the bluebird as she sings.
The six o’clock alarm
would never ring.
Whoops its ringing
and I rise,
Wipe the sleep out
of my eyes.
My shavin’ razor’s cold
and it stings.
Cheer up, sleepy Jean.
Oh, what can it mean?
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen.
You once thought of me
As a white knight on a steed.
Now you know how happy
I can be.
Oh, and our good times
starts and end
Without dollar one to spend.
But how much, baby,
do we really need?
Cheer up, sleepy Jean.
Oh, what can it mean?
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen.
Cheer up, sleepy Jean.
Oh, what can it mean?
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen.
Cheer up, sleepy Jean.
Oh, what can it mean?
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen.

SONGS FOR ENGLISH LEARNERS


song: “Dear God”
singer: Midge Ure
Dear God, is there somebody
out there? Is there someone to
hear my prayer?
I'm a simple man
with simple words to say
Is there some point in asking?
Asking for more only got us
where we are today.
Lost and alone and afraid…
Give me, love for the lonely
Give me, food for the hungry
Give me,
peace in a restless world.
Give me, hope for the children
Give me, a worldwide religion
Give me,
peace in a restless world.
Dear God, can you hear me
crying? A whole world crying
Looking for something to say.
We had it all
and we threw it all away.
Is there somebody watching?
Somebody watching over the
mess that we've made?
We're lost and alone and afraid.
Give me, love for the lonely
Give me, food for the hungry
Give me, peace in a restless world
Give me, hope for the children
Give me, a worldwide religion
Give me, peace in a restless world
And we need to know
there's something good
Though all our years of solitude
go on and on and on...
Give me, love for the lonely
Give me, food for the hungry
Give me,
peace in a restless world.
Give me, hope for the children
Give me, a worldwide religion
Give me,
peace in a restless world.
Dear god, is there somebody
out there? Is there someone to
hear my prayer?

song: “Peace Train”
singer: Cat Stevens
Now I’ve been happy lately,
thinking about the good
things to come
And I believe it could be,
something good has begun.
Oh I’ve been smiling lately,
dreaming about
the world as one
And I believe it could be,
some day it’s going to come.
Cause out on the edge of
darkness,
there rides a peace train
Oh peace train take this
country,
come take me home again
Now I’ve been smiling lately,
thinking about the good
things to come
And I believe it could be,
something good has begun.
Oh peace train
sounding louder
Glide on the peace train.
Come on now peace train
Yes, peace train holy roller,
Everyone jump upon the
peace train
Come on now peace train
Get your bags together, go
bring your good friends too
‘Cause it’s getting nearer,
it soon will be with you.
Now come and join the living,
it’s not so far from you
And it’s getting nearer,
soon it will all be true.
Now I’ve been crying lately,
thinking about the
world as it is
Why must we go on hating,
why can’t we live in bliss?
Cause out on the edge of
darkness,
there rides a peace train
Oh peace train take this
country,
come take me home again.

group discussion


group discussion

Group discussion forms the primary stage of contact between the interviewer and interviewee. These are management entrance procedures by universities or also adopted at the recruitment stage by many companies. Aided with qualifications and mutli faceted job related profiles candidates are all of the cream variety. Group discussions once more separates the cream group and makes them eligible for further rounds of tests so as to be chosen in an accurate career position.

Though group discussion sounds a cacophonic idea of many individuals, there stems many management points that can be noticed in an individual. Skills of management level and expertise in cooling down a situation can easily be recognized during discussion of a topic. This helps the conductor of group discussion to list out the right candidate.

There are many group discussion skills that need to be adhered too. Firstly the main objective is to participate well and moderate in case of a confusion. This easily gives more objective to the interviewer. Be polite and maintain a composure. Easily getting into a heated argument is not the objective and you may be giving many negative signals through your body language. Aggressiveness can be modulated in the form of assertiveness during voicing out an issue.

Decorum has to be clearly maintained. The group discussion is not merely to impress the conductor but putting forth your firm beliefs. It could happen that you could be the only one who is believing in a particular idea and all others have jumped on you. Firstly you should consider yourself in a better bargaining position than others and use valid reasons to state your concept perfectly.

Group discussion are knock out rounds, and never consider any participant weak. Also agree with others where you feel correct. Lamely looking around for someone to give you chance may not work. Find a place for yourself. Dress appropriately. Ladies to better avoid dangling bangles, and flip flop attires. Be formal, monotone garments are fine and avoid too much make up. Sloppy dressing is not tolerated even in social circles. One should have a winning attitude and grooming speaks a lot about yourself.

Learn a little about soft skill application and also about the latest trends and styles in putting forth facts. Learn to articulate a fact and this comes only through reading and listening to peer discussions. Interrupting is definitely allowed in group discussion and be polite while doing so.

Management preparation classes conduced many mock group discussion efforts to let you have a feel of the same.

Use informative phrases, avoid jargons and state firmly. Do got express with articulated hand gestures and opening up the discussion is also a nice idea. Concluding a discussion is also seen as a management quality and a token of leadership talent.
