A SONG

Summertime is almost gone, I hope you have had a great time, time to rest, to go to the beach and why not, to read some English books or just listen to a song and pay attention to the lyrics. Here I leave you an example of a summer hit. You can watch the video and then try to follow it with the lyrics (both are taken from youtube). This is an Amy MacDonald's song. She is a Scottish singer, she is an adolescent and she is very famous now there. In this link, you can find more information about her.

Enjoy this last days before coming back to school.

Cheers
