If possible try some classic song, or in another word, old songs.
Something like umm... Lemon Tree?
As for songs today, some recommended ones. But umm, actually I honestly don't think listening to English songs will help improve your listening performance in exam in short. Sorry if I am wrong but, songs sometimes consist rather difficult words, and different grammar structure, sometimes can be quite confusing.
I can't find any example at the moment, but this is just a point I realised.
But sure listening to more English will eventually help. As myself am an example. But what's better is to listen to real person's normal daily speeches.
Anyway anyway, some songs I'd like to share:
Through the rain, We belong together - By Mariah Carey
Fly away, I don't wanna miss a thing - By Aerosmith
Songs by Linkin' Park
Let me hold you - By Bow Wow feat Omarion
Photograph - By NickelBack
She will be loved - By Maroon5
It's a long road
When you're on your own
And it hurts when they tear your dreams apart
And every new town just seems to bring you down
Trying to find peace of mind can break your heart
It's real war right outside your front door, i tell ya
Out where they'll kill ya,you could use a friend
Where the road ends,that's the place for me
Where i'm in my own space where i'm free
That's the place i wanna be
Cause the road is long,yeah
Each step is only the beginning
No place,just heartaches
Oh man,is anybody winning?
It's a long road,and it's hard as dark
Tell me what do you do to survive
When they drew first blood,that's just the start of it
Day and night,you got to fight to keep alive
It's a real war right outside your front door,i'll tell ya
Out where they'll kill ya,you could use a friend
Cause the road is long.yeah
Each step is only the beginning
No place,just heartaches
Oh man,is anybody winning
歌詞:
Sometimes when you lose you head
when you get upset
We're there to break your fall
And theres no reason yet
why they took your friends
theres no reason at all.
At all.
No reason at all.
At all
No reason at...
When you want to rest your head
On a shoulder that
You know won't turn on you
We're all here till the end
With you my friend
There's no reason to go
There's no reason to go
To go
We wont let you go
Dont go
Not one day that you are here
has been promised to you
Not one day that you are here on this earth
Has been promised to you
So make the most of everyday as if it was your last
And every breath, as if it was the same
the same
as if it was the same
the same
things will never be the same
the same
We will never be the same
The same
the same
things will never be the same
the same
never be the same...
Not one day that you are here
has been promised to you
So make the most of everyday
as if it was your last
And every breath
as if it was the same
