Learning English Through Music
Thesis
Learning English through music and songs can be
very enjoyable. You can mix pleasure with learning
when you listen to a song and exploit the song as
a means to your English progress. Some underlying
reason can be drawn to support the idea why we
use songs in language learning.
Argument

Firstly, "the song stuck in my head" Phenomenon (the echoing in our


minds of the last song we heard after leaving a restaurant, shopping
malls, etc) can be both enjoyable and sometimes unnerving. This
phenomenon also seems to reinforce the idea that songs work on our
short-and- long term memory.

Secondly, songs in general also use simple conversational language,


with a lot of repetition, which is just what many learners look for
sample text. The fact that they are effective makes them many times
more motivating than other text. Although usually simple, some songs
can be quite complex syntactically, lexically and poetically, and can be
analyzed in the same way as any other literary sample.
Argument
Furthermore, song can be appropriated by listener for their own purpose. Most pop songs and probably many
other types don't have precise people, place or time reference.

In addition, songs are relaxing. They provide variety and fun, and encourage harmony within oneself and
within one group. Little wonder they are important tools in sustaining culture, religion, patriotism and yeas,
even revolution.

Last but not least, there are many learning activities we can do with songs such as studying grammar,
practicing selective listening comprehension, translating songs, learning vocabulary. spelling and culture.

Conclusion
From the elaboration above, it can be concluded that
learning through music and songs, learning English
can be enjoyable and fun.
