1
Well, you've been on the road now supporting your amazing second album,
2
but it's been a long tour.
3
You know, I don't mind it though.
4
It's cool.
5
I'm gonna go my birthday is at the end of the month.
6
Great.
7
So I'm gonna go after the tour.
8
I'm gonna go spend some time like in Italy.
9
Yeah.
10
Alone for a while, but it's such a weird time for me because like
11
my 20 I'm turning 24
12
and I was 19 when I wrote Badlands and it's like I blinked and And it just feels so insane.
13
And, you know, it's really interesting to this record because it's going to come right after my 24th birthday.
14
This is such a weird thing for me.
15
It's so complicated because there's so much to unpack here.
16
But the first thing is that,
17
like, it's the most raw thing I've ever made and not just because of the content,
18
because I make concept albums.
19
So I have these comic book universes where I'm playing a fantasy character.
20
And each song is protected by the next.
21
It all makes sense.
22
Yeah, there's like a five part video series and I'm not really myself,
23
I'm playing someone else.
24
And now this song is not attached to an album.
25
It's a standalone record.
26
And that's the interesting thing about music is I was supposed to be taking a break
27
and then I wrote this song and it's like,
28
music doesn't care about your schedule.
29
It's like, if the timing's right,
30
you need to- Set it free.
31
Yeah, you need to put it out.
32
And so here I have this record where it's like,
33
it's just me, you know,
34
no wig, no colorful hair, no character.
35
And it's about my life and about my relationship
36
that the world has watched so closely and so vehemently in the past year and a half.
37
My fans are really going to be like, whoa.
38
You know, all the video content,
39
everything behind the song is like me.
40
It's just me.
41
It's like me in a white t-shirt with normal hair,
42
just singing to the camera.
43
No character, no cinematography, no gunfight,
44
car explosion, stuff like I usually do.
45
Is this the first song you've ever written as Ashley and not as Horsey?
46
I think that's the point.
47
Yeah, I think that's what I'm kind of getting at.
48
It's not protected by some character or some subplot or some,
49
you know what I mean?
50
It's like, this is really me talking about my life and letting people.
51
I've always...
52
It kind of gave me an existential crisis as an artist a little bit, because I've like...
53
For so long I've prided myself on being an artist who's authentic and writes about her life and stuff.
54
And then when I made this,
55
I felt just how bad it hurt.
56
So you wondered whether or not you'd even gone there before?
57
Yeah!
58
And it made me question myself as an artist and be like,
59
as an artist and be like,
60
have you even been accessing this part of you?
61
Here's the good news.
62
Every artist I've ever interviewed in my life who's gone there has asked that question of themselves.
63
You know, I mean, if you'd gone there right at the very start,
64
who knows where you'd be now?
65
I mean, you've got to warm up.
66
You've got to live a life.
67
You were 19 when you started.
68
I know.
69
You're 24, you're still incredibly young,
70
and you've lived a life.
71
I mean, you know, debut album, hard work, check.
72
Second album, ambitious, concert record, check.
73
You know, hustle for your success,
74
put in the graph, check public relationship.
75
Big check.
76
Yeah.
77
You know, big check.
78
I mean, these are all things you've achieved,
79
and so it makes sense that you're going to go ahead and you're going to write this song now,
80
because what would you have said before?
81
How would you have even gotten this out of your system?
82
No, we would have cared.
83
That's the most important thing,
84
is that now they care.
85
And they want to know what's behind the curtain.
86
Nah, you are different, man.
87
And I've said this so many times.
88
No one, I mean, here's a compliment for you.
89
I'm irrespective of the writing.
90
No one, when it comes to stepping on the microphone to do a take on any song in any situation,
91
and I've talked to Benny about this.
92
I've talked to PND about this.
93
I've talked to anyone who's actually had the guts to step in the room with you.
94
When you step in there and take your first statement of your verse,
95
it's over for anybody else in the room.
96
And Benny's like, oh, she's the greatest.
97
The first three seconds of any takes she does,
98
the tone she has, it's just forget about it.
99
It's done.
100
I think it's
101
because I don't even put my mouth in front of a microphone until I'm absolutely positive about what I want to say.
102
How do you even get there?
103
Because a lot of people have to warm up to that.
104
You know, I'm just like,
105
I think a lot of people,
106
there's two ways of looking at it is some people are comfortable improv-ing in the room.
107
That means one of two things, and they're opposite things.
108
It either means that they're so comfortable with whatever they're making or whatever they're saying,
109
they don't care if someone hears them mess up.
110
Or it means they're so uncomfortable that they need improv in the room to wait for the person to say,
111
that's good, that's good.
112
Yeah, they're looking for feedback.
113
So it's one or the other.
114
It's either that they don't need any validation or they so desperately need validation.
115
And I'm like a completely different type of writer where I,
116
when I first started writing and people weren't familiar with my work
117
or was like my workflow or I hadn't found the people I'm comfortable with yet.
118
When I first started writing,
119
I would sit in the room and like be in my phone and I could feel like producers being like,
120
is she even going to do anything?
121
And then I'd leave the room to go smoke a cigarette or do whatever and they'd be like,
122
is she even going to do anything?
123
You're in the wrong game.
124
The patience is the whole point.
125
30 minutes later, I'd come back in and I'd sing a whole song,
126
top to bottom, and they'd be like,
127
when did you write that?
128
And I'd be like, when you were wondering if I was ever going to do anything.
129
And then I'd come back in and they cut it.
130
And so I think what it is is,
131
I mean, I think I'm a perfectionist in
132
that way where I don't get in front of a mic unless I know what I'm going to say.
133
I only have like three demos the world's never heard.
134
Most artists have like a hundred.
135
And that's because I don't even start a song unless I know I'm going to finish it.
136
Wow, interesting.
137
So like I've only ever made basically the songs that you've heard.
138
No vault.
139
No, not really.
140
No vault.
141
Because I know what I want to make before I make it and I kind of reserve.
142
I reserve that instead of trying to like Frankenstein stuff.
143
Look, my first message is like,
144
you know, you are not bound to anything besides yourself.
145
I've said that in 2015 when I put out Hurricane,
146
I said, you know, don't belong to no city,
147
don't belong to no man.
148
That's always been my MO,
149
is you don't belong to anybody but yourself.
150
And then of course, situations like this complicate things when you love someone almost as much as you love yourself, maybe more.
151
Yeah.
152
Well, that's what's interesting about that line,
153
because when I first heard it,
154
I felt like you were talking to him as much as to yourself.
155
Yeah.
156
And in the past, it's like,
157
oh, you're talking to yourself,
158
like stand up for who you are
159
and don't necessarily put your self-esteem in the hands of any situation is not in your control.
160
This time it was almost like a gift as well.
161
It was like you were saying,
162
it's not about you belonging to me or me belonging to you.
163
That's what I took from it.
164
100%.
165
100%.
166
And there's like a double entendre in that as well
167
because I think the most important message for me with this is like,
168
you know you don't belong to anybody but yourself
169
and you know you're not bound to anything that doesn't serve you
170
but the second message
171
that I want to just remind everyone through this process is
172
like we're people we're people you know what I mean like you text your best friend
173
and you're like I'm done with them I'm never talking to them ever again
174
and then your dumb sorry ass is back hanging out with them again next week too
175
and if you're doing it so am I everyone's like you know people don't change people don't and that's not true.
176
That's not true.
177
And I think that it's especially convoluted when your image of yourself or your perception of yourself,
178
look, basic sociology is looking glass self.
179
We define ourselves based on how the people around us see us.
180
That's how we define ourselves.
181
So now imagine if the people around you isn't ten people, it's ten million.
182
Yeah, and it's through the eyes and lens of social media which is immediate and direct.
183
And the news is fit to print.
184
The news is fit to print.
185
So now you have this like warped
186
idea of who you are because of 10 million strangers who are trying to tell you who they think you are.
187
And it's like that completely...
188
It's like there's an exception there.
189
That's an exception.
190
My development of my identity and my self-perception and my higher self and self-awareness,
191
I kind of get a pass to experiment with it and to mess up and to figure,
192
and so does he and so does everyone else you know you're being fed self-reflection from
193
so many different So start Uninformed star says I think it's the only thing that I've experienced in the past couple years
194
that made me put my phone down
195
and say I don't care what they think
196
and I've you know me you've known me for a while now and you know I've beaten myself up
197
about what people think about me and about what people think about it and
198
so in a weird way like this relationship has been the
199
one of the most liberating thing that's ever happened to me
200
because it made me put my phone down and go I don't care what you think because this makes me happy

Perché praticare il parlato con questo video?
Praticare il parlato utilizzando l'intervista di Halsey offre numerosi vantaggi per gli studenti di inglese. In primo luogo, fornisce un'opportunità unica di ascoltare un artista che discute in modo spontaneistico e autentico, permettendo agli studenti di abituarsi a diversi stili di comunicazione. La naturalezza della conversazione aiuta a migliorare la pronuncia inglese e a comprendere il linguaggio colloquiale, indispensabile per interagire in situazioni reali.
Utilizzando tecniche come il shadowing in inglese, gli studenti possono imitare il ritmo e l’intonazione della parlante, assimilando nuove espressioni e costruzioni grammaticali. Inoltre, questa pratica aiuta a sviluppare la fluidità e la sicurezza nel parlare, rendendo l'apprendimento più efficace e coinvolgente.
Grammatica ed espressioni nel contesto
- "It's such a weird time for me" – Qui Halsey usa una struttura semplice per esprimere emozioni personali; un modo utile per apprendere come parlare delle proprie esperienze.
- "I was supposed to be taking a break" – Questo esempio dimostra l'uso della forma passata per parlare di piani che non sono stati realizzati, un'espressione comune quando si discute di eventi futuri.
- "Music doesn’t care about your schedule" – Una frase per sottolineare il concetto di imprevisti nella vita, utile per apprendere modi di esprimere situazioni imprevedibili.
Ogni espressione è un'opportunità per gli studenti di incorporare nuove frasi nel proprio vocabolario, contribuendo a costruire confidence nella conversazione.
Trappole comuni nella pronuncia
Durante l'intervista, ci sono alcune parole e frasi che potrebbero risultare difficili da pronunciare. Ad esempio:
- "insane" – Attenzione all'intonazione, in particolare nel secondo sillabo, per evitare che venga pronunciato in modo scorrettamente accentuato.
- "protected by the next" – La parola "protected" presenta una consonante iniziale che può causare confusione; pratica il suono finale per garantirti una pronuncia chiara.
- "character" – Fai attenzione all'accento sulla prima sillaba; una pronuncia errata potrebbe alterare la comprensione della frase intera.
Utilizzare il shadowing site per queste pratiche può aiutarti a superare le difficoltà comuni nella pronuncia e a sentirti più sicuro mentre parli in inglese.
Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
