The changes and influence on Englisch

Many people complain that English spoken in Britain changes. In the following the influences and changes shall be discussed: First of all TV has a lot of influence on people. So as the English spoken on TV has changed the language of the people watching TV has changed too. This might be because especially young kids try to adopt their idols' way of talking. A second aspect is that even dictionaries now include the latest slang words. Thirdly Estuary English is slowly replacing RP. Besides people nowadays care less about the way other people speak. Language is fluid, so changes come and go.

Dreams...

Once the professor of physics and scientist Robert H. Goddard said "It is difficult to say what is impossible, for the dream of yesterday is the hope of today and the reality of tomorrow". He meant if you have a dream and work hard enough for it, you can turn it into reality. You also shouldn't loose your dream in front of your eyes instead keep on working on it that maybe someday you can live your dream.

Volbeat - I only wanna be with you (Dusty Springfield cover)

I don't know what it is that makes me love you so
I only know I never wanna let you go
'cause you started something can't you see
And ever since we met you had a hold on me
It happens to be true
I only wanna be with you

It doesn't really matter what you say or do
I wanna spend each moment of the day with you
Look what has happened with just one kiss
I never knew that I could be in love like this
It's crazy but it's true
I only wanna be with you

I don't know what it is that makes me love you so
I only know I never wanna let you go
'cause you started something can't you see
And ever since we met you had a hold on me
it happens to be true
I only wanna be with you

You stopped and smiled at me
And asked if I'd care to dance
I fell into your open arms and I didn't stand a chance

(Now listen honey) I just wanna be beside you everywhere
As long as we're together honey I don't care
But you started something can't you see
And ever since we met you had a hold on me
It happens to be true
I only wanna be with you
No matter what you do
I only wanna be with you
