This song is in a language called Quechua, a language that is now mainly limited to places such as Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, and Argentina. We had to learn how to properly speak and then memorize the song to perform later on. I thought it was a major feat to sing in a different language, especially one so unheard of. This assignment made me realize how beautiful other languages and cultures could be; how unaware many teenagers are when they automatically shun unfamiliar music. I now know that I should keep an eye out for more foreign songs because many are truly works of art.

This is a french love song that talks about the beauty of another. It has a very beautiful melody and harmony. For this song, we also had to learn how to properly dictate french and sing it in a way that still captures the softness as well as the correct speech. This was important because I am taking a french course and it helped me learn how to use my skills in another manner. Before this, I wouldn't have been able to have the opportunity to use my french skills elsewhere.
