Shadowing-Übung: Olivia Rodrigo's wild pap experience almost RUINED her album release | Capital - Englisch Sprechen Lernen mit Video

There's a funny story of, I was in New York and we were trying to put one on a bridge in New York.

I did all of them myself, which was so much fun.

Oh my gosh.

And there was a paparazzi following me once in New York and we were so scared.

We were like ducking under tunnels.

We were like going crazy.

I'm like, you can't take a picture of this.

Look, it's going to ruin the whole rollout.

Like having a panic attack.

And we managed to do it privately and secretly.

But yeah, it was really fun to get to do that.

And it's just so fun to do things in real life.

I feel like everything right now is obviously so digital

and social media based

so it's really fun to like kind of have a roll out that's like in person that's

so true actually

and people could see it like it's a physical thing did

you consider doing a wearing a disguise to put the locks

on yes i think i wore like a hat there

and then i took the hat off i was the paris was actually the scariest one

because it was like right by the eiffel tower there's

so many people around

and i was like oh god please nobody take a picture of me putting this lock on

but it all worked out it all worked out

and it was brilliant thank you god you gotta think what

you're gonna do for the next album now i gotta keep

up on the ante how do you take it further um you said

that you wanted to make sad love songs for this album uh

because i feel like dating is hard for sure do you

have like a solid bunch of people you go to for

advice friends family strangers on the internet oh my gosh how

do you deal with it for sure no bad idea no i have i have a wonderful group of friends

and actually we we have this thing where um anytime any of us are having like any like boy troubles

or dating troubles we text the group chat and we go jury duty

and then everyone comes in and the jury convenes

and we all give our opinion

that is such a good idea you need a good jury

you need you need help sometimes you can't you know you're seeing you're not seeing things clearly

when you're in a relationship how often does the jury group reach a unanimous decision

it's pretty unanimous okay that's good it's good it's good

when you're a member of the jury but not

when you're the one presenting your problem you know what i mean

because it's like sometimes you don't want to hear the answer

but it's important and

if the jury said it you sort of got to go with it are you good at taking advice in

that kind of situation oh gosh i don't know is anyone ever really good at

that i don't know probably not i'm getting better as i

get older never uh this track on the album called purple yeah uh

which i saw you say was originally a love song

but you went back and you tweaked it to what it is now um how did

that change how did that evolve

that song yeah i i wrote it a long time ago

purple was one of the the first songs i wrote for the album

and um i just wrote

that poem in my phone it's um you kiss my neck

made our pals intersect the two lines form a circle i'm not with you you're right in my blue

and now i see the world in purple and i thought

that there was such a like a beautiful sentiment and

so i took to the studio

and we uh we made it into a whole song it was very sweet at first

and um a few months later we revisited it

and dan started playing all these like really kind of weird um guitar things underneath it

and like changed the chords and uh it took on this like sort of creepy vibe

that i really liked and

so we tweaked it to sort of be the beginning of the unraveling

and the album so yeah that's

that song is sort of where everything starts to go south the turning point yeah i love

that you're such a great songwriter olivia and you know what

so often that i have other artists in on the show

and i asked them about their inspirations your name comes up

so much it really does oh it's so nice yeah i really appreciate

that that's like the highest compliment ever yeah yeah what a

compliment uh let's talk drop dead yeah music video obsessed with it um you said

that i think i don't know how serious you were

when you said this before it happened

but you said you maybe wanted to film in the palace of versailles

which is the world's biggest and best known palace yeah

exactly yeah how much could that cost

and label budget yeah totally you manifested it

and you made it happen you got the palace yeah it was it was

so incredible i can't believe

that they let me film there it was really wild it

started just out yeah as like kind of a pipe dream like oh

that would be cool one day if i could go visit versailles

and it turned into us like having the palace all night

and being able to film a whole video in it

and it was really really special was it a little bit

scary it was a little scary it was a little creepy like i kind of believe in ghosts

and i feel like

if i was a ghost i'd probably want to hunt the halls of versailles yeah

if anywhere is going to be haunted it's

that place for sure for sure

so i definitely felt felt some some spirits there okay well

that's a bucket list moment getting to getting to filming the

palace of versailles that's pretty cool what would are there any

of the locations like dream locations you'd love to shoot a

music video i know i have to keep up in the

ante now maybe i'll like do it on the top of the eiffel tower

or something crazy i don't know yeah you could do it

100

at the top of big ben yeah it's top have a

101

big pen in the clock that's a great you could hang

102

on to one of the clock hands perfect okay next video

103

sorted yeah hey you're back here in april next year olivia as part of the unravel tour four huge shows in London.

104

How are you feeling about that?

105

You excited?

106

I know it's a long way off, but do you start to get excited when you think about it?

107

I'm so excited.

108

Playing the O2 on the Guts World Tour was one of my favorite shows ever.

109

It was so much fun.

110

I love being in England so much.

111

And yeah, I can't wait.

112

I hope you'll come.

113

Oh, yeah, I would love to.

114

I'm going to be there, front and center.

115

You'll see me.

116

I'm going to look right for you.

117

I'm going to sing every song right into your eyes.

118

Okay, that won't be uncomfortable for me at all.

119

I know, the audience will love that.

120

What does a tour day look like for you, Olivia?

121

What's the routine?

122

How do you get in the zone?

123

Yeah, it's a good question.

124

I tour is very physically demanding, so it's like I'll do like a exercise in the day.

125

I'll make sure to eat a lot of really healthy, nutritious food.

126

Sometimes I'll try to go see the sights of wherever I am and yeah, do my vocal warm-up, hop on stage, have a great time.

127

Have a great time.

128

And then afterwards when you get off stage?

129

Afterwards when I get off stage I have to do like a little ice bath thing

130

which is really really annoying and unsexy

131

but my legs get like all messed up from the boots like jumping I like jump

132

so hard on stage and

133

so I have to do like a painful ice bath after

134

my show Straight for a dunk in the ice bath It's not very glamorous but yeah

135

It's gotta be done Yeah it's so physically demanding

136

Have you ever done the thing where you like try and sing on the treadmill?

137

I know that some pop stars do that Oh my gosh I've done

138

that so many times it's hard The one thing

139

that actually was the hardest was I was doing some shows in like Chile, I think.

140

And it's really high elevation.

141

And so I had to train for the high elevation.

142

So basically you put a mask that limits your oxygen intake on.

143

And you're like running for a mile.

144

That was so hard.

145

Oh, because of the altitude?

146

Because of the altitude.

147

It's really hard to sing when the air is so thin up there.

148

So you had to train for it.

149

That was tough.

150

Oh, my God.

151

Yeah, that was tough.

152

That's kind of amazing, though.

153

That's really cool.

154

That's sort of like a superpower that you've got now.

155

Yeah, yeah.

156

And I can sing in no oxygen.

157

I should go to space.

158

Yeah, yeah.

159

Well, Katy Perry did it.

160

I don't know if she sung, but she did go up there.

161

Your best mate, Conan Gray, was hanging out on the show a little while back.

162

I love that guy so much.

163

He's the best.

164

He is the best.

165

The best guy.

166

I miss him so much.

167

He's been on tour and I've been doing press and stuff, so we've been two shifts passing the night, but he's great.

168

It must be, because you're, I mean, it's amazing, you're both so busy, but it must be really quite hard to actually see each other IRL.

169

Yeah, it really is.

170

It's okay.

171

We're subsisting on FaceTimes right now, so that's okay.

172

But yeah, I'm so happy that I was talking to someone outside

173

and we were talking about how much me

174

and him both love percy pigs and

175

so she brought us some percy pigs i have some today

176

so i just had some in the dressing room that's what you need to stock up

177

while you're here in the uk i really do get a

178

whole load of percy pigs um well he said we were talking about his song vodka cranberry

179

and um he said this actually olivia i feel like my

180

friend group all has like their favorite drinks i don't even

181

drink vodka cranberries i i've had one like once before but live

182

and a few of my other friends also just really love the vodka cranberry every once in a

183

while can you confirm or deny olivia confirm vodka cranberry is my favorite every time me

184

and conan are out i'm like you have to have one they're

185

so good they just taste like juice but that's why they're

186

so dangerous because they do just say like cheese yeah you can have

187

so many of them

188

and like forget healthy antioxidants antioxidants yeah yeah antioxidant that's you

189

190

you gotta get the antioxidants i don't even know what an antioxidant is olivia

191

199

i don't think i've ever touched them in real life

200

but i should that's always a fun thing to like go to a newsstand

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
