1° Ecoute

- Do you know this song? Have you ever heard it?

Puis tableau:
Colonne de gauche: The music (instruments / rhythm => Emotions)
Words you can hear (pas grand chose à première écoute)

We have already heard this song. Originally, it was sung by Gloria Gaynor. We heard it in 1998, but it dates back to the 1970s. So this song is a cover by another band (Cake).

We hearda guitar, an electric guitar, drums, a bass, a trumpet...
The rhythm is bluesy. The rhythm and the singer's voice give an impression of sadness.
Maybe it's a song about sadness. Or it may be a song about victory.

2eme écoute: Focus on words
A partir des mots et expressions, faire un travail de réseaux de sens. Possibiité de passer par les différents temps utilisés:

I was afraid / I was petrified / I could never live without you / I spent so many nights feeling sorry / I used to cry
I'm trying hard ... broken heart / I've got all my life to live / I'm not that stupid... / you're not welcome any more...

En déduire:

He was dumped by his girlfriend.
