as you've probably already figured out
today we're doing a learn English
through song lesson today's lesson is
focusing on the song imagined by the
Beatle member John Lennon if you don't

lesson then at the end give it a big
thumbs up so I know what's working for
you
alright so let's have a listen to the
lyrics so he starts off by singing
imagine whoa imagine there's no heaven
heaven is the place where God lives and
all the good people after they die it's
easy if you try no hell which is the
opposite of heaven the place where the
devil lives no hell below us above us
only sky so he's saying imagine that the
earth is all there is and with the music
it sounds like this imagine there's no
heaven
it's easy if you try
no he'll be lower
above us only sky
then he sends imagine all the people of
everyone imagine all the people living
for today so he's saying imagine if
everybody was to live their lives in the
moment not thinking too hard about the
future about their souls after they die
about the past living in the past he's
saying imagine everybody lives for now
this very moment lives in the present
and he says imagine there's no countries
imagine that there was no separation
between the countries it isn't hard to
do nothing to kill or die for so no
reason nothing to kill or die for no
reason to kill no reason to die and no
religion too now little Eric grates on
me a little bit cuz normally you'd say
nothing to kill or die for and no
religion I either know religion either
but John Lennon sings and no religion
too or which isn't quite right I don't
think it doesn't feel right anyway be
aware of it when he says imagine all the
people living life in peace so let's go
up to there with the music
imagine all
[Music]
today aha imagine there's no countries
it isn't hard to do
nothing to kill or die for
and nohrin engine too
imagine all the vehicle
maybe life
yoo-hoo so he's singing you at the end
just doing a twiddle you you may say I'm
a dreamer you may say I'm a dreamer you
can say what you like you may say I'm a
dreamer but I'm not the only one
lots of other people believe in what I
believe in believing in equality and
living in the moment so you may say I'm
a dreamer but I'm not the only one I
hope someday you will join us and the
world will be as one
you may say I'm a dreamer then I feel
someday will join us and the world will
live long and that's as far as we're
going to go so I want to do the whole
thing again I want you to try and sing
along
we'll still got a very steady pace
imagine there's no heaven it's easy if
you try no hell below us
[Music]
above us only sky imagine all the people
living for today
ah imagine there's no countries
it's hard to do nothing to kill or die
for no religion too imagine all the
people living life in peace you may say
I'm a dreamer but I'm not the only one I
hope someday you will join us
[Music]
it then does go on to sing imagine no
posessions possessions is another word
for things that you own so my book is my
possession my phone is my possession my
clothes are my possessions I wonder if
you can mmm can you I wonder if you can
no need for greed or hunger or hunger a
brotherhood of man which means a
community of men not men as in the
gender but of humans brotherhood of man
imagine all the people sharing all the
world so equality then it repeats you
may say I'm a dreamer but I'm not the
only one I hope someday will join us and
the world will live as one my advice to
you is to look up a song and try to sing
along at the same pace as the original
trying to sing every one of the words
now if singing is something that you
really like to do and you'd like to
improve then I do have a singing
education channel I'll put the link in
the description box below but it's
called verba vocal technique where I
teach you how to sing otherwise I hope
