Lucky Star music is an abomination and you are horrible, horrible people for liking it.
But it has PUNS! Godly.
And yeah, echoing Ryogo - it's not a good song, but damn is it catchy. It grows on you. Like a fungus.
Anyway, I have a request.
I want to incorporate some American (or just English-language) music into some of my classes. Perhaps even have the students -learn- some of the words to a song.
However, I'm having difficulty figuring out what would be best to use. Ranging from modern pop/rock to classic musicals, I'm really not sure which direction to start with these kids.
So, I'm wondering what kind of music you guys would want young, impressionable children to hear as representative of the English-speaking world. Name as many tracks as you can think of that might apply.
The only stipulation is that the lyrics need to be somewhat simple (or very simple and repetitive, your judgment call). Something you think would be appropriate and accessible to someone learning the language.
Make a difference in the lives of young Japanese students! Maybe they won't grow up all weird.
