STUDYING HISTORY WITH SONGS?

A group of teachers have invented a way to study History with songs. They change the lyrics of some famous songs and here is the result.

You can study the Battle of Hastings with "Sexy Back" or the Prehistory with Britney Spears. You can also study the history of a Gladiator with Amy Winehouse or the mummies with Green Day.

Do you dare to translate any of the songs in English? You can win extra points for your English subject.

 You can also study the French Revolution with Lady Gaga.
