Well, trying to come back to the posts routine...by the way, if you have suggestions about regular posts, please, leave a comment.

This post iis for Travelers. That's why it is called traveler's drops...it means "small, fresh and good"posts, like Drops (candies).

As, I am preparing a beautiful and great couple to visit Germany, this Drops go specially to them:

Well guys, I saw Didi Wagner visiting some places in Berlim and realized that it would be great if you could:

1- Follow the TV programs - every Tuesday at 22:00 (if it is not possible, see the alternative times here).
2- Watch the videos on internet

Notice that the program on TV is much better, longer and you can see a Braziliam reporter speaking English aand local people speaking English too. Also, there is a little of Portuguese and German...it is interesting and cultural aspects are always present...good for people that is looking forward visiting this place.

I separated one video - click here.

Florence + The Machine - Dog Days Are Over (2010 Version)

Hey Guys,
I saw Florence and the Machine on TV. She sang at Chanel'spresentation at SPFW. She is like a fairy...and such a voice!
So, today's clip to inspire your Friday and weekend is this one.

What do you think that "the dog days are gone" mean to you.

Lyric:


Dog Days Are Over
Florence and The Machine
Happiness hit her like a train on a track
Coming towards her stuck still no turning back
She hid around corners and she hid under beds
She killed it with kisses and from it she fled
With every bubble she sank with her drink
And washed it away down the kitchen sink

The dog days are over
The dog days are done
The horses are coming
So you better run

Run fast for your mother, run fast for your father
Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers
Leave all your loving, your loving behind
You can't carry it with you if you want to survive

The dog days are over
The dog days are done
Can you hear the horses?
'Cause here they come

And I never wanted anything from you
Except everything you had and what was left after that too, oh
Happiness hit her like a bullet in the back
Struck from a great height by someone who should know better than that

The dog days are over
The dog days are done
Can you hear the horses?
'Cause here they come

Run fast for your mother, run fast for your father
Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers
Leave all your loving, your loving behind
You can't carry it with you if you want to survive

The dog days are over
The dog days are done
Can you hear the horses?
'Cause here they come

The dog days are over
The dog days are done
The horses are coming
So you better run (Here they come)

The dog days are over
The dog days are done
The horses are coming
So you better run

Lyric from here.


You know what? Ouvir música, pesquisar a letra e buscar novo vocabulário é uma maneira eficaz e divertida de dar um "up"no seu inglês.

Sugiro:

1- Veja o clip e tente reconhecer palavras e ou frases
2- Coloque o clip mas leia a letra ao invés de assistir, apenas ouça e acompanhe a letra
3- Coloque o clip e tente cantar enquanto lê a letra
4- Quais palavras você aprendeu com essa música?

See you later alligators!
