Teacher’s notes

1. Announce the song. Ask students if they know why it is called so. Ask where the story takes place and if a narrator dreams of the wind of changes or he feels it now. Play the song.

2. Check the students’ answers.

The story takes place in Moscow, Russia (the USSR). The Moskva is the name of the river, and Gorky Park is a famous amusement park in Moscow. The narrator feels the wind of change while walking around the city.

3. Give out the worksheets. Explain that to avoid repetition in ‘ Soldiers <are> passing by and they are listening to the wind of change’ the author uses participle listening. Ask your students to fill in the gaps with the Present participles (V-ing).

4. Play the song again. Then check the answers.

Lyrics and answers

I follow the Moskva
Down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change
An August summer night
Soldiers passing by
Listening to the wind of change

 

The world is closing in
Did you ever think
That we could be so close, like brothers
The future's in the air
I can feel it everywhere
Blowing with the wind of change

 

Refrain 1

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
in the wind of change

 

Walking down the street
Distant memories
Are buried in the past forever
I follow the Moskva
Down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change

 

Refrain 2

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams
With you and me

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
in the wind of change

 

The wind of change
Blows straight into the face of time
Like a stormwind that will ring the freedom bell
For peace of mind
Let your balalaika sing
What my guitar wants to say

Refrain 2
