We apologize that the "but" of this study wasn't immediately clear from our first tweet! Truly, better methodological work needs to be done to tease apart the relationship between song and language learning. Please check out this new review by @lomo_linguist and colleagues below!

Good news for language learners — I just stumbled on the fact that Spotify Premium has a solid selection of the otherwise £££ Michel Thomas language courses (I'm a diehard fan)

Looking forward to meeting #MFL colleagues @OxfordDeptofEd in October to discuss the evidence base for using songs for teaching languages to young learners. What does experience and also the research tell us? Still time to get tix for this @OxDeaneryEdu event! #mfltwitterati
