I personally have worked singing music I like low speed with its subtitle could say that
helped me to familiarize myself with the words but not understand the context very well. I think it could be something like Anki because you can do many repetitions without getting bored. my tools I use are Youtube and musiXmatch to find music with lyrics. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

If you listen to a lot of music, use it. I personally still don't know every word bands
like Opeth use in their lyrics, hehe, but when I don't know something I deem important I just check it - be it a word or a grammar structure. Consider using lyricstraining.com too. It all might be not that efficient, and I wouldn't recommend to specifically learn vocabulary through music, but if you listen to it for enjoyment you might as well learn something new from it. 3 persons have voted this message useful | |

I'm a strong believer in learning through music :) See this wikia article.
Of course it shouldn't be your only source of learning, but especially for beginners it's the most accessible kind of native materials. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

I also think it might not be super efficient, and sometimes word stress and even
pronunciation can be subject to artistic manipulation, but when you enjoy something it tends to produce much better results than sticking to a "fail-proof" method that you detest. I would definitely encourage using songs to learn vocabulary (I've had positive results), just be sure to double check the applicability of what you've learned before putting it to use in other contexts. 2 persons have voted this message useful | |

Having the lyrics of the song handy is useful. I had a French teacher at school who
sometimes played tapes of songs in class. He was especially partial to Maurice Chevalier. I wasn't, but the general idea is a good one. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

I think it's best not to look at the lyrics at least sometimes. Listen to different versions of the same song before you do.

I'm learning Chinese at the university http://dir.tsu.ru/, but I do not like the songs,
don't know why. 1 person has voted this message useful |
