Take 5 Minutes to Improve Your Fluency
I always love watching OK Go’s music videos. In their latest one, they turn a 5 second clip into a slow motion video for their song, The One Moment. As you enjoy the video, I invite you to sing along with the lyrics below. Singing is a great way to improve English fluency because of the quick and repetitive nature of songs. It also helps us learn new vocabulary and common slang words. It’s even better to memorize the song so you can continue to practice in the car, shower or wherever you are!
Do you have a favorite song that helps you practice fluency? Please share it with us in the comments section! You might also notice some strange grammar or vocabulary as you read the lyrics. As always, feel free to write your comments or questions in the section provided. Now, have some fun!
You’re right
There is nothing more lovely
There’s nothing more profound
Than the certainty
Than the certaintyThat all of this will end
That all of this will endSo open your arms to me
Open your arms to meAnd this will be
The one moment that matters
And this will be
The one thing we remember
And this will be
The reason to have been here
And this will be
The one moment that matters at allSo while the mud
Reclaims our footprints
And while our bones keep looking back
The overgrowth is swallowing the path
There for the grace of god go we
There for the grace of god go we
There for the grace of time and chance
and entropy’s cruel handsSo open your arms to me
Open your arms to meAnd this will be
The one moment that matters
And this will be
The one thing we remember
And this will be
The reason to have been here
And this will be
The one moment that matters at allSo won’t you stay here with me
And we’ll build until we’ve blistered our hands
So won’t you stay here with me
We’ll build us some temples
We’ll build us some castles
We’ll build us some monuments
And burn them all right downSo open your arms to me
Open your arms to meAnd this will be
The one moment that matters
And this will be
The one thing we remember
And this will be
The reason to have been here
And this will be
The one moment that matters at allSo won’t you stay here with me
And we’ll build until we’ve blistered our handsThis will be
The one thing we rememberSo won’t you stay here with me
And we’ll build us some temples
Build us some castles
Build us some monuments
We’ll build us some temples
Build us some castles
Build us some monumentsThis will be
This will be
The one moment that matters
And this will beThe one moment that matters at all
