FROM YOUR TV TO YOUR CLASSROOM (IV)

Guess who's the winner this week?
Yes! Enrique Lorca once again!!!  (Well done, Enrique! Certainly you deserve it because your motivation is so big and you always give the right answers very quickly).
A boy from 4ºB and a girl from 4ºA were quicker than Enrique but they failed to recognize the spot and the song. The product advertised is Volkswagen Think Blue Symphony, and the song is "Wouldn't it be nice?", a classic originally created, recorded and made a hit by 'The Beach Boys' which is covered here by Tiziano Lamberti.

We have a bit more complicated lyrics this time, so all the students who click on 'Comentarios' and provide their own translation into Spanish can get one point. (Sumarán un punto en la clasificación de este juego todos aquellos alumnos que entren aquí para aportar su propia traducción de esta canción, aunque la mejor traducción según mi opinión obtendrá 2 puntos).


Wouldn't it be nice if we were older?
Then we wouldn't have to wait so long.
And wouldn't it be nice to live together
In the kind of world where we belong?

You know its going to make it that much better
When we can say goodnight and stay together.

Wouldn't it be nice if we could wake up
In the morning when the day is new,
And after having spent the day together
Hold each other close, the whole night through?

Happy times together we've been spending.
I wish that every kiss was neverending.
Wouldn't it be nice? 


INFORMATION FOR THE STUDENTS: 
This is how you can get points in this game:
* If you enter and leave a message (commenting on the song or on the spot, trying to guess the answers, giving your translation of the lyrics...) you get 1 point, just for participating, even if you're wrong.
* If you give the right answers but you're not the quickest to do it, you get 2 points.
* The winner of the week gets 3 points.
The CLASSIFICATION so far is the following:
1st) Enrique Lorca (3ºC)... 9 points
2nd) Pablo Tomás Dorado (4ºB)... 3 points
3rd) Ceferino Sánchez (4ºB)... 2 points
4th) Sofía Fernandez and María López (4ºA)... 1 point.

Anónimo dijo...

Soy Enrique Lorca, otra vez, y la cancion es "I'm fool to want you" de "Billie Holiday" y el anuncio es un corto de el perfume de "CHANEL NO 5"

Prof. CARLOS dijo...

Enrique Lorca has already sent a message, and his answer is quite correct but not exact (2 points then, not 3). The 3 points for the winner are still available for the first student who gives the exact name of the product and title of the song.
I will publish all the messages next Friday (I hope there are some translations of "Wouldn't it be nice" too).

Marina dijo...

No sería agradable si nosotros fuéramos más mayores
Entonces nosotros no tendríamos que esperar tanto tiempo.
Y no seria agradable vivir juntos
En la clase de mundo dónde pertenecemos

Usted sabe que va a ser mucho mejor
Cuando podemos decir buenas noches y quedarnos juntos.

No seria agradable si nosotros pudiéramos despertar
Por la mañana cuando el día es nuevo,
Y después de pasar el día juntos
Sostenernos el uno al otro la noche entera

Hemos pasado juntos momentos felices
Quisiera que cada beso no terminara nunca
Seria agradable
