Rod Stwart's "Sailing" is a must for present continuous

If you want some fun, for beginner's, you may use "The Book is on the Table"

And for intermmediate student's I suggest San Franciso by Scott McKenzie

Hi!

My suggestion is "All My Loving" by the Beatles.

It's easy to understand and it's a happy song!

Moreover, if you teach it you can use as an introduction to the Future Simple tense. It is suitable for 7th EFL grades or younger ESL pupils.

Enjoy :)
