Video Transcript
Hello everyone! My name is Lacey and I am your English teacher for today. Welcome to the Eigo Love Youtube channel.
Today, I am going to teach you some sentences you can use to talk about music.
These are commonly used. There are some new words that we will learn as well.
Let’s get started.

Example #1
I like upbeat music
Upbeat music has a faster beat or pace. It has more of a happy feeling.
This is the kind of music that I personally like.
[Example] I like upbeat music.
Or, to make it a little harder,
[Example] I enjoy upbeat music.
Very nice.

Example #2
That song is stuck in my head
When a song is stuck in your head, it means you can’t forget it.
You keep hearing the music or singing lyrics in your mind.
This happens a lot when a song is often played on the radio.
[Example] That song is stuck in my head.
Good job.

Example #3
Her new song is really catchy
“Catchy” means that it is a good song and it’s easy to learn the lyrics or the beat.
Catchy songs often get stuck in your head.
[Example] Her new song is really catchy.

Example #4
I am so tired of that song
Maybe you have heard that song so many times so you don’t want to listen to it anymore.
It is boring. This happens when songs are overplayed, or played too much.
[Speech error] I am so tired of her, sorry,
[Example] I am so tired of that song.
Or similarly, it has the same meaning but,
[Example] I am so sick of that song.
It has the same meaning as “tired”, so you can use either or.

Example #5
That song uses too much autotune
“Autotune” means that a computer or technology was used to fix the song, or to make it sound better.
It sounds very fake.
[Example] That song uses too much autotune.

Example #6
I know all of the lyrics
“Lyrics” are the words in a song.
If you know the lyrics, it means you can probably sing the song.

Great job.

Example #6
Her new album was released today
It means that a new album started to be sold.
It could mean in stores, or online. Released- Start to be sold.
[Example] Her new album was released today.
Good job.
Or very similarly:
[Example] Her new album came out today.
This sentence basically has the same meaning as before.
So you can use either or.
Both are okay!
[Example] Her new album came out today.
Great job.
