Daft Punk - Instant Crush

Dear students, dear followers, dear English learners,

It's been a while that I haven't had the time to feed this blog and I'm sorry. Life is quite hectic and it's sometimes difficult to accomplish everything we would like to. 

But tonight I felt like I could take a couple of minutes to share a song and its meaning with you : Daft Punk with their song "Instant Crush"

Here's what you should do:

1) Listen to the song and try to get an idea of what they're saying (it's difficult and that's perfectly normal)
2) Listen to the song again and try to fill in the blanks in the lyrics below.
3) Check your answers here.
4) Check the vocabulary here - but of course interpretation is up to you!
4) Listen again and sing along!




I didn't want to be the one to __________
I thought of everything I'd never __________
A little __________ with you is all that I get
That’s all we need because it's all we can __________

One thing I never see the same when your 'round
I don’t believe in him—his lips on the __________
I wanna take you to that place in the “Roche”
But no one gives us any __________ anymore

He ask me once if I'd look in on his __________
You made an __________ for it, then you ran off
I got this picture of us kids in my __________
And all I hear is the last__________that you said

[Pre Chorus]
"I listened to your problems
Now listen to __________"
I didn't want to anymore, oh oh oh

[Chorus]
And we will never be __________ again
'Cause it doesn't __________ every day
Kinda counted on you being a f__________
Can I give it up or give it __________
Now I thought about what I wanna say
But I never really __________ where to go
So I chained myself to a __________
'Cause I know it unlocks like a __________

Some more again

[Verse 2]
It didn't matter what they __________ to see
He thought he saw someone that __________ just like me
The summer __________ that just never dies
We worked too long and hard to give it no __________
He sees right through me, it's so easy with __________
Cracks in the road that I would try and __________
He runs his scissor at the seem in the wall
He cannot break it down or else he would __________
One thousand lonely __________ hiding in the cold
Take it, I don't wanna sing anymore

[Pre Chorus]
"I listened to your problems
Now listen to __________"
I didn't want to anymore, oh oh oh

[Chorus]

I don't understand, don't get __________
I'm not with you
We’re swimming around,
It's all I do, when I'm with you

[Chorus]
