Aprender inglés con las canciones de Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran es un joven cantante y compositor británico que en los últimos años se ha convertido en el artista más escuchado en Spotify. ¡Su éxito es incontestable!
Sus canciones son muy bonitas y fáciles de entender, por eso hoy hemos decidido proponerte una actividad un poco especial para que puedas disfrutar aprendiendo inglés con las canciones de Ed Sheeran.
Hoy hemos elegido 2 canciones bastantes sencillas que seguro ya conoces y has oído miles de veces. Las canciones las vamos a trabajar mediante el vídeo de YouTube que puedes encontrar en el enlace, y las letras. Hemos querido poneros algo de deberes, y hemos borrado algunas palabras del texto para que vosotros tengáis que saber qué palabra corresponde en ese lugar.
Entonces, el ejercicio se compone de 3 fases:
-
Oír primero la canción intentando entender el significado global.
-
Oír de nuevo la canción, esta vez con el texto delante, para ir leyendo a la vez y rellenando los huecos.
-
Oír por tercera vez para cantar y ¡disfrutar!
¿Listos?
¡Adelante!

CASTLE ON THE HILL – vídeo
Letra:
When I was six years old, I _____ my leg
I was running from my brother and his friends
Tasted the _______ perfume of the mountain grass, I rolled ______
I was younger then
Take me back to when I
Found my heart and broke it here
Made friends and lost them through the ______
And I’ve not seen the roaring fields in so long, I know, I’ve grown
But I can’t _____ to go home
I’m on my way
_______ at ninety down those country lanes
Singing to Tiny Dancer
And I miss the way you make me feel, and it’s real
When we watched the ______ over the castle on the hill
Fifteen years old and smoking hand rolled _______
Running from the law through the backfields and getting _______ with my friends
Had my first kiss on a Friday night, I don’t reckon I did it right
But I was ______ then
Take me back to when
We found weekend jobs, when we got paid
And buy ______ spirits and drink them straight
Me and my friends have not thrown up in so long, oh, how we’ve grown
I can’t wait to go home
I’m on my way
Driving at ninety down those country lanes
Singing to Tiny Dancer
And I ______ the way you make me feel, it’s real
When we watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
Over the castle on the hill
Over the castle on the hill
One friend left to sell clothes
One works down by the coast
One had two kids but lives _____
One’s brother overdosed
One’s already on his second wife
One’s just barely getting by
But these ______ raised me
And I can’t wait to go home
And I’m on my way
I still _______ these old country lanes
When we did not know the answers
And I miss the way you make me feel, it’s _____
When we watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
Over the castle on the hill
Over the castle on the hill
