I totally agree.
I also worry, that if students are not taught grammar they will consider English to be a difficult subject to be avoided, rather than enjoyed.

I hope you enjoy making the videos as much as we enjoy watching them.

All the best.

A good video about grammar in songs.
But I am confused at why learning “grammar “is an issue in the United States.

How can you put a coherent sentence together if you don’t know
the basic rules?

You don’t learn English via osmosis.You learn and practice it. In reading, writing and conversation.

But it seems to be an issue at universities, where arts, languages etc are under funded, also known as “under paid”.
I Agree, “after the school” is incorrect grammar.
I agree, the parody video is way better than the original.
The lyrics are brilliant, and the clever “after the school” at the end.
Hi Marina
Looks like you really “opened the flood gates” on this one.

America, historically is passionate about grammar and spelling.

Mark Twain’s book, “Huckleberry Finn” was initially banned from school libraries because of “poor grammar”, “poor grammar”. Go figure?

The belief at the time, is that “how you spoke”, was a key to social standing. Looks like that hasn’t changed, just now includes song writing!

But double negatives, what’s going on?
