Gutting Songs

MORE EXAMPLES AT THE BOTTOM!!

Hello, hello, hello!!

The other day, I was in the car with my father when suddenly this song appeared in Spotify: Peter Pan: volarás, volarás. volarás.

If you pay attention to minute: 1:44, it says:

"¡Cómo aquella Navidad

en que viste al despertar

juguetes de cristal!"

¿¿¿Juguetes de cristal??? What? How could we miss that? So, I decided to look for the real lyrics and... ¡surprise! It says:

"Think of Christmas,

think of snow

Think of sleigh bells

off you go!

Like reindeer in the sky"

For sure, it wouldn't rhyme in Spanish: "Piensa en la Navidad, piensa en nieve, en cascabeles, ya te vas como un reno en el cielo"

Since this year, I must study as much English as possible, this whole story gave me the idea of start gutting songs (destripar canciones).

Let's take the most of these songs that you thought you knew.

Peter Pan: You can fly Bryan Adam, Rod Stewart and Sting- All for Love

Jason Mraz: I'm Yours Gotye- Somebody that I used to know

Smash Mouth: All star The Jungle Book: The bare necessities

Avril Lavigne- Complicated Mary Poppins: Sister Suffragette

However,

As Chomsky says: "They are positive evidente that learning is taking place"

Just, let me know!! ;)
