Let's talk about Vegas.
2
What happened?
3
How did it end up coming so down to the wire, like the night before?
4
How did that happen?
5
I tried my hardest, right?
6
I really thought I would be able to pull something else together, you know, in time, and that was why it was so last minute, which, you know, I regret, obviously, that I kept going with it until that late in the day.
7
But it just wasn't ready, and there were lots of different reasons of why.
8
There were COVID, you know, delays with pieces of the show.
9
There were some things that weren't going to be arriving until the day of the show so therefore I would never be able to see them or approve them and so that you know there were lots of delays for that we our manpower was down because I'm doing all this testing for my you know for my crew and stuff like that and our carpenters who are there to fix and change things you know there and then we had like hardly any able to come to work and it just would have been a really half-hour show and I can't do that I can't that doesn't people will see straight through me up on stage being I've never done anything like that in my life.
10
I'm not going to start now, you know?
11
So, obviously gutted.
12
But we're working our arses off literally 24 hours a day.
13
I don't want to announce a new set of dates until I know that everything will definitely be ready.
14
Can you imagine?
15
Don't dedicate it.
16
Also, I'd have to go on and do a show that ain't ready.
17
I don't want it, but I'd have to.
18
But also, I suppose when we think about you, we think about, you know, this voice and you kind of think if it was just you If it was just you, a piano, a lightbulb and a mic, people would have been quite happy.
19
Was that ever a possibility that you'd just go out and go, look, guys, there's nothing?
20
There's def...
21
There's nothing.
22
There's nothing.
23
There's me!
24
No, there's definitely...
25
There is a...
26
There was a part of the show that was like that, but I feel like I've always had a really great incline with my show.
27
Like, you know, I'm really comfortable in theatres, which is one of the reasons I'm so bloody excited about doing the Coliseum.
28
Yeah.
29
And then I nailed my arenas.
30
I don't care what no-one says.
31
Like, considering that I'd always done theatres.
32
And I went on every night loving doing my show because I knew it was a great show, like, you know?
33
And then I did stadiums, and I did it in the round, which even my team were, like, worried about.
34
I thought for a solo artist, I thought, bloody nailed it.
35
I worked the whole room in the rail.
36
But it was also like, it was just a stadium show, but we'd been on tour for so long with, you know, with the arena tour and stuff like that.
37
And I don't want to, I'm not going to try and do a stadium show in a theatre, but it's Vegas.
38
It can't just be me on me fucking guitar.
39
There has to be something else happening, you know?
40
Not completely, not the whole show stripped back, no.
41
And so you say you are planning to do these, they are going to happen?
42
Absolutely.
43
100% happening.
44
OK.
45
Yes.
46
And how long might fans have to wait?
47
I'm not asking for commitment to a date, but just...
48
If you have a ticket, are you holding on to that for years?
49
They're absolutely happening this year.
50
This year?
51
Oh, 100%.
52
Oh, fantastic.
53
Have you been reading the papers?
54

55
Yeah.
56
I believe everything in the papers.
57
They are absolutely happening this year.
58
Oh, my God.
59
OK, perfect.
60
Yes.
61
Very good, very good.
62

63
LAUGHTER I'm not breaking...
64

65

66
Imagine if I had to cancel shows cos I'm having a baby!
67
No, I've got plans next year, they better fucking happen this year.
68
That is some gestation.
このビデオで話す練習をする理由
アデルのインタビューは、英語スピーキング練習にとって非常に有益です。彼女の個人的な経験や感情を通じて、リスナーは英語の会話がどのように展開されるのかを学ぶことができます。特に、アデルのような有名な歌手が話す内容は、日常会話の中で使える表現や語彙を体験するのに最適な教材となります。また、彼女の表現からは感情を込めた話し方を学ぶことができ、これは英語シャドーイングや英語スピーキング練習に役立つスキルです。
文法と表現の文脈
アデルのインタビューでは、以下のような重要な文法構造と表現が使用されています:
- 過去形の使用: アデルは過去の出来事について語っており、過去形を多く使って感情を伝えています。「私が本当に頑張った」といった表現は、出来事への強い思い入れを表しています。
- 条件文: 「もし私が一人だけで歌っていたら」などの条件文を用いることで、条件が満たされた場合の結果を想像させ、会話に深みを加えています。
- 強調構文: 「私はそれを絶対にやるつもりだ」といった強調表現は、彼女の意志を強く印象づけるのに役立っています。
- 対比の表現: アデルは「これだけではなく、他のことも起こる必要がある」と対比的に表現することで、私たちに彼女の見解を明確に示しています。
一般的な発音の罠
アデルの発音には特徴的な部分がいくつかあります。特に注意すべき単語やフレーズには以下があります:
- “us”や“them”の発音: これらの言葉は、アデルのアクセントによって少し変化することがありますので、注意が必要です。彼女の発音を真似することで、英語スピーキング練習の際に流暢さを向上させることができるでしょう。
- ストレスのかかりやすい母音: 例えば、"show"の母音を強調する部分とそうでない部分の違いに注目することで、シャドーイングの練習がより効果的になります。
- 感情を込めた表現の際のイントネーション: 感情を表す際のイントネーションは、特にアデルの表現力豊かなスタイルにおいて重要な要素です。これを模倣することで、より自然な英語スピーキングができるようになります。
これらのポイントをしっかりと理解し、英語シャドーイング、英語スピーキング練習に活かすことで、あなたの英語力は飛躍的に向上します。ぜひ、アデルのインタビューを参考にして、効果的な練習を行ってください。
シャドーイングとは?英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング(Shadowing)は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的:ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影(shadow)」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
