Ashlie: This was Stephen’s idea. He loves clubbing, but this really isn’t my kind of music! I don’t know why I put up with him sometimes.
Stephen: What’s wrong, Ash? Surely you must like this. It’s great! I’m just getting warmed up!
Ashlie: Oh Stephen I can hardly hear you. What did you say?
Stephen: I said the music’s great. Why aren’t you dancing?
Ashlie: You must be joking, it sounds like a car alarm. It’s giving me a headache. I can’t stand this kind of music.
Stephen: Oh, but dance music’s much better...
Ashlie: You know I’m going to speak to the DJ.
Stephen: Ashlie! What are you doing? You’ve cleared the dance floor. This is a dance club, not some pop venue.
Ashlie: Well, I couldn’t listen to that noise anymore.
Stephen: Come on. Let’s get out of here before people start complaining!
......
Ashlie: Listen - we’ve tried live music, a club and a pub and I’ve just had a message from Sally and she says there’s a party at her friend’s house. Come on, let’s get a taxi. You don’t have to get up early tomorrow, do you?
Stephen: No, but we won’t know anyone there. Are you sure we can we just turn up? Are they going to let us in?
Ashlie: Yes - I’m sure - we’ll just tell them you’re with me. Come on, I’ve got to look up her address.
......
Stephen: Hey guys, all right...
......
Stephen: This is such a great house for a party.
Ashlie: Yes, it is, isn’t it? Except someone’s just turned up that terrible music. We haven’t been very lucky tonight, have we?
Stephen: For once I agree with you. I thought coming to a house party would be better than a club. You know, we could chat, meet some really cool people but this is awful.
Ashlie: Right – that’s it. We’ve spent the whole night complaining about music. Come on, we’re off!
......
Stephen: I can’t believe it. We were looking for the perfect night out and look where we ended up.
Ashlie: Oh, I’ve got an idea. Why don’t we make our own music!
Neighbour: Oi! Keep the noise down!

Hello everyone. First of all thanks for the excellent opportunity you are giving us to learn british english for free. I have a doubt about the phrasal verb "warm up". Please check out my sentence. Is that correct or not: "To work in the oil and gas industry warmed me up."
Thanks and my best regards.

I love all kinds of music but it depends on my mood. When i am cheer up , i like rock music. When i get around my friends i like rock music too. Most of the time i listen classical music. When I feel sad i listen very quite music. In any party i would love to listen loud music.
After watching this video, I think Britain music and America music is different. Most of America music I hear is pop, R&B, rap. And It sounds noisier with strong beat than Britain music. However, American music make me really want to dance.
Hi
I like all sorts of music especially when it is a nice melody and it isn't noisy. Sometimes I listen quiet music especially after work, but sometimes I like to listen lively melody when I have joyful mood.
Dear Selvi Ferawaty
I invite you to Armenia and I shall organize for you special party with whole Armenian custom. It would be very interesting for you and for me.
best wishes
I really enjoy listening to music. It makes me feel peace, calm, and happy. I always listen to music everyday. Basically I like all kinds of music but I have a favourite type of music. It is pop and jazz. And also I like going to party but unfortunately I never experience having party because I never get invitation to come to the party.
