Taking songs one step further, I often include a skill exercise to really exploit the song. For reading you could print out the lyrics and scramble them for your learners to put back in order. For writing you could use parts of the song as a dictation or simply just write their favorite line. Learners could listen to an unknown song first and ask them what it is about and then show them the lyrics. And finally, you can turn the song into a speaking activity where learners get into groups of three and decide on new lyrics for the song. Any song could be used to help you work on any skill.
