TĐH: Some well known songs for you to see some grammatical mistakes. These mistakes are usually intentional, either to make the song stand out or to use popular incorrect English by most people. But sometimes the mistake is from the author’s ignorance.

Source: Dictionary.com

Songwriters provide the soundtracks to our lives and often have a knack for saying exactly what we were feeling but, of course, we didn’t know how to express ourselves.

But even their superior rhyming skills and penchant for translating the human condition into beautiful lyrics doesn’t mean they always say everything perfectly. Your favorite playlist is probably as full of simple spelling mistakes and hilarious grammatical errors as it is beloved hit songs. Đọc tiếp The Biggest Mistakes In Songs We Love To Sing →

Dear brothers and sisters,

The chorus of  Niềm tin chiến thắng sounds similar to Christmas song When the boy was born. However Lê Quang, the composer of Niềm tin chiến thắng, said they may sound similar but it may be accidental and he didn’t intentionally stole the music from the old Christmas song. (More information here – “Niềm tin chiến thắng” là bài hát đạo nhạc?)

Anh Hoành, a musician himself said: “The sound of the Christmas song is very classical and is the norm of classical music. That type of sound, the melody, and the progression of chords are very familiar worldwide. So if some songs sound the same in some parts, it is very normal.”

Enjoy both songs.

Have a nice day. Đọc tiếp Niềm tin chiến thắng – When the boy was born →

Hu là ban nhạc rock mới xuất hiện trên thế giới cách đây 3 tháng. Đây là ban nhạc Mông Cổ, đàn và hát nhạc rock Mông Cổ mới. (Không có nhiều thông tin về ban nhạc.)

Mình nghe clip Totem Sói – Wolf Totem của ban nhạc khi clip mới được đăng trên Youtube khoảng vài ngày. Khi đó clip chỉ có tiếng Mông Cổ, chưa có phụ đề tiếng Anh, mình thuần túy nghe nhạc và cảm thấy thích cách hát và cách chơi nhạc của họ. Đọc tiếp Totem Sói và ban nhạc rock Mông Cổ →

Dear sisters and brothers,

This is a cute song. I like: “Mấy thứ đã trôi qua rồi, thì cho nó qua đi” and “lo chi lắm cho cam”.

Kelly (I don’t know what her name is) and Ánh Tuyết sing lovely. Music in these clips are cheerful. Student actress and actor in clip no.3 are cute.

Enjoy!

Have a nice day.

Dear sisters and brothers,

I love the song – “Nàng thơ xứ Huế”.

I love Huế. I love simple and slow living here. I love cycling on the small ways full of green in the citadel (Kinh thành). I love walking to the school on the street full of flowers and leaves. I love rain and cold days in Huế. So romantic and poetic.

I love the story of “Nàng thơ”. I love the word “thương”. I love the voice of Thùy Chi. Đọc tiếp Nàng thơ xứ Huế →
