Dotsub

Hi readers!

This time my classmates and I had been working on an online application called "Dotsub". This application provides you to translate and caption any song you like to in a very simple and efficient way. To do this, you firstly have to download another application so that you can later on download the song that you want to translate from youtube. Secondly, you must sign up on dotsub, which is completely free, as you cannot do anything without having your own account. And that's all, you are prepared for translating your song as I have done it.

According to the selection of the song, as many of my classmates chose a modern song, I decided to translate an older one. This is because in my opinion, most of the songs that nowadays are in fashion are basically "rubbish" in comparison with the songs singers used to compose some decades ago. Taking into account all this, I decided to translate a song called "Let it be" from the famous band The Beatles. I suppose you all have a certain idea of this group, due to they had being one of the best groups ever. Furthermore, they continue to be very influential nowadays. But, I won't start informing you about their lives, or their careers, however, as I suppose that more than one would be interested in increasing his knowledge about them, here I let you the link to their official website.

There is another aspect of the song I would also liked to talk to you about: the meaning. For me, the feeling a song causes on me is the most important thing. Because as we all know, music influences people in many ways including their way of thinking and acting... We listen to music when we are going through a hard time, when we are enjoying ourselves, when we want to celebrate something... It has been proved that it can change our feelings in many different ways, as lyrics go deep into your heart. Music can really make you appreciate your life and you actually get to know yourself much better. So, as when I firstly listen to this song it made me think about the essential freedom one needs, it directly turned into one of my favourites songs.

That's all for now, I hope you will enjoy it!

See you soon
