Let’s make Christmas amazing for everyone!

Vocabulary chunks to learn from video (in bold) :

C’mon everyone, we’re late!

Last call for passengers to Paris.

Mummy, can I give my pocket money to Neighbourly?

They’re helping families in need.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Christmas in Paris. A family vacation.

But wasn’t someone missing from this festive celebration?

Kevi-i-i-i-i-i-i-n!

For this little carrot would spend Christmas at home.

But he often gets scared when left all alone.

Quaking in his roots, he had to make a stand.

And tackle the intruder, with traps he’d carefully planned.

Then all of a sudden, he had a bright idea.

Which almost dashed his hopes of seeing in New Year.

Roast carrot!

Fearing that his plans had left him quite exposed,

he made a hasty exit to become a snowman’s…

nose?

– Kevin? – Santa! Thank goodness you’re here.

Someone’s been trying to get in!

– Kevin! – Daddy!

But even though Kevin was a little worse for wear,

he was overjoyed to have everybody there!

I’m sorry about Paris.

At least we got to see the Trifle Tower!

Wow!

Let’s make Christmas amazing for everyone!

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas

Lyrics

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Everywhere you go
Take a look at the five and ten, it’s glistening once again
With candy canes and silver lanes that glow

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Toys in every store
But the prettiest sight to see is the holly that will be
On your own front door

A pair of Hopalong boots and a pistol that shoots
Is the wish of Barney and Ben
Dolls that’ll talk and will go for a walk
Is the hope of Janice and Jen
And Mom and Dad can hardly wait for school to start again

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Everywhere you go
There’s a tree in the Grand Hotel, one in the park as well
It’s the sturdy kind that doesn’t mind the snow

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Soon the bells will start
And the thing that’ll make ’em ring is the carol that you sing
Right within your heart

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Toys in every store
But the prettiest sight to see is the holly that will be
On your own front door

Sure, it’s Christmas once more

On top of the world

Mike Posner climbed 29,032 feet summit in 50 days in support of the Detroit Justice Center and the work they do in the criminal justice realm — something his late dad was passionate about. At a height of 29,000 feet, Mount Everest is the world’s highest mountain.

Lyrics

I’m ’bout to do this shit, sick of sitting here
Only got a couple years before I disappear
I don’t know, I’m just a man
But there’s more inside me than these people understand

Oh, I think it’s time I went and found a way

I’m looking for something different to clear my mind
I’m headed to someplace distant, that I might not find
And I know that you’re worried, I won’t make it, but
No, don’t worry, I’m gon’ make it home (home, home)

I could die, I’ma do it though
Hope my life becomes a symbol of what’s beautiful
Take it thеre, make it back
All thesе people think I’m crazy, I’m okay with that

Oh, I think it’s time I went and found a way

I’m looking for something different to clear my mind
I’m headed to someplace distant, that I might not find
And I know that you’re worried, I won’t make it, but
No, don’t worry, I’m gon’ make it home

I’m not givin’ up, givin’ up, no, not yet

 

 

 [PS22 CHORUS KIDS]

PS22 Chorus kids always like to employ good grammar, but even better is when they employ the GREAT Andy Grammer to sing along with them!! Check out this performance of Andy’s theme song to FIVE FEET APART that moved him to tears….

The Webby Award-winning PS22 Chorus was formed in the year 2000. We are an ever-changing group of 5th graders from a public elementary school in Staten Island, New York. PS22 is NOT a “school for the arts,” and the chorus is not a magnet program. PS22 Chorus just features ordinary children achieving extraordinary accomplishments — musically and otherwise.

Lyrics

I will fight
I will fight for you
I always do until my heart
Is black and blueAnd I will stay
I will stay with you
We’ll make it to the other side
Like lovers doI’ll reach my hands out in the dark
And wait for yours to interlock
I’ll wait for you
I’ll wait for you’Cause I’m not givin’ up
I’m not givin’ up, givin’ up, no, not yet
Even when I’m down to my last breath
Even when they say there’s nothin’ left
So don’t give up on
I’m not givin’ up
I’m not givin’ up, givin’ up, no, not me
Even when nobody else believes
I’m not goin’ down that easily
So don’t give up on meAnd I will hold
I’ll hold onto you
No matter what this world’ll throw
It won’t shake me looseI’ll reach my hands out in the dark
And wait for yours to interlock
I’ll wait for you
I’ll wait for you’Cause I’m not givin’ up
I’m not givin’ up, givin’ up, no, not yet
Even when I’m down to my last breath
Even when they say there’s nothin’ left
So don’t give up on
I’m not givin’ up
I’m not givin’ up, givin’ up, no, not me
Even when nobody else believes
I’m not goin’ down that easily
So don’t give up on meSo don’t give up on me

Something’s got to give

You know that time never sleeps
Keep one eye open like
I’ve got my head full of dreams
All shattered and broken like

Never chose love, it chose me
But I’m still here making stones bleed
So I’ll go on swimming upstream
Till I come tumbling down

Oh, when the working don’t pay
Oh, when you’re living on faith
Something’s got to give
Something’s got to give
Oh, when you’re giving your all
Oh, when it’s coming up short
Something’s got to give
Something’s got to give

Gotta give a little more
Woah, yes
When the going gets tough
Gotta give a little more
Woah, yes
In the name of the Father

Hey, I’ve been caught in the red
Needing the breath of life
But I came back from the dead
Diamond like, golden like

Never chose love, it chose me
But I keep burning endlessly, so
Go tell them angels I’m blessed (Go, go tell ’em)
There ain’t no taking me down

Oh, when the working don’t pay
Oh, when you’re living on faith
Something’s got to give
Something’s got to give
Oh, when you’re giving your all
Oh, when it’s coming up short
Something’s got to give
Something’s got to give

Gotta give a little more
Woah, yes
When the going gets tough
Gotta give a little more
Woah, yes
In the name of the Father

Give a little more
Woah, yes (woah, yes)
When the going gets tough
Gotta give a little more
Woah, yes
When the going gets tough
Gotta

Say it (woo hoo)
We’ve made it
I said love it when a plan comes together
Baby, say it (woo hoo)
We’ve made it
I said love it when a plan comes together hey

Say it (woo hoo)
We’ve made it
Hey I love it when a plan comes together
Baby, say it (woo hoo)
We’ve made it
Say I love it when a plan comes together
Hey

Lyrics

I won’t live up to any expectations
What you see is what you get
And worse yet I can’t give an explanation
For why it’s gray on your side
And better yet I’ll give you an indication
For why you’re feeling deprived

We’ll never let lack of an imagination
Keep us locked up inside
Even when the sun has died

Somehow in the city it’s summer in the city
Somewhere in the city it’s summer in the city

We’ll never let lack of an imagination
Keep us locked up inside
Even when the sun has died

Somehow in the city it’s summer in the city
Somewhere in the city it’s summer in the city

No more raining on this lonely town
Summer comes around when you really want it
Immortalized, young forever now
There’s more to life than running in the circles you become
No more raining on this lonely town
Summer comes around when you really want it
Immortalized, young forever now
C’mon and spend the summer with me

‘Tis the season to be jolly – The book of dreams

 

‘The Book of Dreams’ as a dad’s childhood dreams are awoken when he sees the drumkit his daughter has circled.

i’m running after you

 

matthew mole

Of all of the places
and all of the spaces that I’ve ever seen and that I’ve ever been its true
I’d walk through a town I could only have dreamed but the beauty surrounding means nothing to me, it’s you
Where you are is where I always want to be
Anywhere as long as you are there with me
I will take you to the places I have seen
Take my heart and run along
‘Cause I’m running after you,
I’m running after you,
And i’ll do what I can do,
And I’ll do it all for you
We’ll come back home,
we’ll come back home one day
But right now we are called to see a place
Where you and I will change the world we know
Anywhere that I’m with you is home
Where you are is where I always want to be
Anywhere as long as you are there with me
I will take you to the places I have seen
Take my heart and run along
Cause I’m running after you,
I’m running after you,
And I’ll do what I can do,
And I’ll do it all for you
All the things that we will see and all the things we’ll know
Take my hand and walk with me, we’ll never be alone
‘Cause I’m running after you,
I’m running after you,
And I’ll do what I can do,
I’ll do it all for you,
And I’ll do it all for you

my people

Jeremy Loops

Jeremy Hewitt, (born 4 March 1984), known by his stage name Jeremy Loops, is a South African singer and songwriter.

People go without wait for my honey
Waiting here for you
Others choose to stay in the tiny cage
Not my people, not you
So won’t you stay, we can figure it out
Find our hope, maybe lose our doubt
You should know whatever I do, when distance calls
I’ll be sending for you
Singing

My people, oh my people
Nothing compares to the soul of my people
My people, oh my people
Nothing compares to you. ooh
‘Cause people like you
‘Cause people like
‘Cause people like you
Oh my people
‘Cause people like you
‘Cause people like
‘Cause people like you
My people, Oh my people

I tried to find my place out there
To start with something new
To try to find my way out there
To escape from all that I knew
I had to find a way to make peace out there
To try to grow up alone to
Find a way to make peace out there but
It never felt like home

Without

My people, oh my people
Nothing compares to the soul of my people
My people, oh my people
Nothing compares to you. ooh
‘Cause people like you
‘Cause people like
‘Cause people like you
Oh my people
‘Cause people like you
‘Cause people like
‘Cause people like you
My people, Oh my people

Say I
I found a place I love
I found a place I love
And there’s something about it
It is keeping me honest

Been living with a cold heart
Now I’m moving to the darkness now
I’m just getting started
Yeah I’m just getting started

I found a place I love
I found a place I love
Where

My people, oh my people
Nothing compares to the soul of my people

My people, oh my people
Nothing compares to you. ooh
‘Cause people like you
‘Cause people like
‘Cause people like you
Oh my people
‘Cause people like you
‘Cause people like
‘Cause people like you hmm and me

My people, oh my people
