雅思口语Part2：一首歌

Describe a song that reminds you of a particular time.

You should say:

what it is about

what particular time it reminds you

how often you listen to it

and explain why you think it is special to you.

I’m sure a lot of people have a song that reminds them of their first kiss or a childhood memory, but one song that always brings a smile to my face is Gangnam Style by the South Korean artist, Psy.

The song is all in Korean, so I’m not particularly sure what it is about. I know that Gangnam is a rich area of the Seoul, the capital of South Korea, a bit like Beverly Hills in California. The video for the song is very random, with tongue-in-cheek jokes about money and being wealthy.

When I hear the song, it takes me back to my time at university. I can remember when it first started to appear on the internet, on social media and video sites like YouKu. I would watch it with my roommates in my dorm and in class on my phone. Then it really took off and it seemed to be everywhere, in shops, on TV and especially in bars and nightclubs.

Back then I used to listen to Gangnam Style all the time, you couldn’t really escape it, but nowadays it isn’t played so often. It’s been overtaken by new catchy songs like Xiao Pingguo, which means ‘little apple’.

To be honest, these days I find the song a bit annoying. I think it was overplayed and people got tired of it. But I guess it still holds a special place in my mind as it reminds me of being young and at university, of staying up late with my friends and watching videos on the internet until the early hours.

　　雅思口语描述一首你喜欢的歌曲

Describe a favorite song of yours

You should say:

What this song is about

When you listened to this song for the first time

How often you listen to this song

And explain why you think it is your favorite

一首我喜欢的歌曲是来自于周华健的朋友。周华健是90年代的一位非常出名的中国歌手，到现在也很受欢迎。这首歌是关于友谊的。就像歌曲里唱到的那样，朋友一生一起走。

A favorite song of mine is Pengyou, which is from Zhou Huajian, who was a very well-known Chinese singer in the 90s and still is. This song is all about friendship. Just like the lyrics said, friends, we walk together always.

我不太记得我第一次听这首歌是什么时候了。但绝对是很久远的事情了，大概是在我上小学的时候?我第一次听到这首歌的时候，我就被这首歌给迷住了，尤其是它的旋律和还有歌词。那个时候我从未听过如此纯净有积极向上的歌曲。那个时候还有一首叫同一首歌，也是很出名，但是在我心中还是这首歌曲最完美。

I can’t remember when I listened to this song for the first time. It was definitely very long time ago, maybe when I was in the primary school? The moment I heard the song, I was kind of fascinated by the rhythm and the lyrics. Never had I heard such a pure and positive song at that time. Another song that also made me feel good was called TONGYISHOUGE, but you know it’s not as perfect as this one in my mind.

我在备战高考的时候压力特别大，这压力来自于我的家人还有我身边的同龄人。那个时候正是这首歌让我坚持了下来。所以，我认为我喜欢这首歌曲的原因就是因为教会了我如何变得更加积极向上，我并不孤独，我什么还有很多朋友支持着我。

During the preparation for the college entrance exam, I got extremely stressful because of the burden I had from both of my family and my peers. It was this song that really helped me stick to it. This article is from Laokaoya website. Do not copy or repost it. So, I think the reason why I love this song so much is that this song teaches how to become positive and let me know that I was not alone, I’ve got my friends who would stand by my side always.

现在在中国我们有很多年轻有才华的歌手，比如TFBoys等等。但是我依然忘不了那个时候这首歌曲陪伴我的时光，它就像我的一个灵魂伴侣一样。

Right now, we have so many young and talented pop song singers in China, like TFBoys. But, I still can’t forget those days when I listened to this song and regarded it as a soul companion of mine.

You should say:

思路分析：

很特别的一首歌：同桌的你。

歌曲的内容：可以从歌词、曲调，以及这首歌所表达的情感这几个方面来说。

这首歌为什么特别：可以联系这首歌的内容和自己的生活。例如，每次听到这首歌就会想起自己的同桌和与同桌之间的友情等等。

Sample answer：

In my mind, there is a song I particularly enjoy and it means a lot to me, whose name is the girl next to me. It is a folk song(民谣) sung by Laolang, a famous folk singer in my country popular in young Chinese people in particular, young college students. The singer expresses his missing to the girl sitting at same table of him in his school time. I heard it on a music website for the first time several years ago when I was in my dormitory. I was impressed by the beautiful melody(旋律) and the touching lyrics(歌词) and it is not surprising that the song is very prevalent(流行的) among the young college students like me on campus.

Each time I hear the melody,I will think of the lovely face of my desk mate ,a lovely girl ,in my high school, especially her sweet smile and her limpid(清澈的 )eyes. We have pure friendship then, and we often helped each other. She taught me English and I was better in math. We have much happy time together. After graduating from high school, we separated and communicated with each other once in a while. I wish I can sing the song with her if I have an opportunity and I believe It will be touching picture.

music changed over the years?
