Melissa, You talked about memorizing Italian. This would be a good song for you to learn by memory. E facile e molto buona e molto romantico. Classic. Songs like this make you more than happy you know the Italian language.

They say that I do not know
how to find a flower
and that I do not have anything to give.

They say that there's a nail
inside my heart
and that's why it won't beat.

My boyfriend knows
that it's not true,
My boyfriend knows
that when I fall in love
I give everything to
who falls in love with me
and there is nobody
who can change that
who can take me away from him.(detach him from me)

This is the chorus to the song. Learn it my memory first. chorus=a part of a song repeated after each verse
It's sung through out the song. 3 or 4 times at the end.

Quando m'innamoro
io do tutto il bene
a chi e' innamorato di me,
e non c'e' nessuno
che mi può cambiare,

Read it over and over again. Sing it over and over again. It should be playing in your head over and over again.

I've heard this song before.

Thank you for posting this. I'm a huge music lover (Even though I have a really bad singing voice), so it's easier for me to learn that way.

The more you sing the better your voice will get.

You can also just say the words without singing.
Ricordati(remember)a song is a poem put to music.
So say the words just like your reading poetry.

Think of learning Italian as the samething as taking a music class or voice lessons.
Think of learning Italian or taking an Italian class as the samething as taking
acting lessons or reading for a part in a play. You read dialogs and act like an actor.
So learning Italian is so much more than just learning Italian. It's everything!

I took choir in high school and my teacher would always say that anyone who can speak can sing. It's just a matter of learning it. I did learn about music, but no matter how many times we sing I never had a good voice.

For some reason I just am able to learn new words or words in other languages with music in the background. I guess I could also always play my husband's Wagner cd while listening to the Italian program from the internet.
