Topic: Bilingual (album)


  
  Britain.tv Wikipedia - Bilingual
Bilinguals and multilinguals outnumber monolinguals in the world's population (de Bot and Kroll).
Those bilinguals that are highly proficient in two or more languages, such as compound and coordinate bilinguals are reported to have a higher cognitive proficiency, and are found to be better second language learners at a later age, than monolinguals.
Receptive bilingualism may occur when a child realizes that the community language is more prestigious than the language spoken within the household and chooses to speak to their parents in the community language only.

 Amazon.fr : Bilingual - Japan: Musique: Pet Shop Boys   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
The album Very was released in 1994, and didn't do very well commercially or critically, and while the Pet Shop Boys shortly thereafter toured, it had the feeling (partly due to the rumour mill) that this was in fact a farewell series of performances.
The rest of the album is influenced obviously by the groups adventures in Latin America and Latin Europe during their concert tour, as well as holidays in the sun.
However, this album is for the most part a placeholder in the overall history of the Pet Shop Boys (for the historically inclined, perhaps it is the 'James Polk' of their albums, adequate but undistinguished, often forgotten, but still on the books).

They had decided to call the album bilingual from the very beginning, partly because of the Latin thought it was a bilingual album like Gloria Estevan doing her Spanish album.
This bilingual album includes a traditional Spanish carol, Laos peaces en El r o and this bilingual album, mostly in Spanish, by the children's TV star.
Bilingual bilingual is the tenth album, the sixth of entirely new music, by the UK electronic music group pet shop boys.

They had decided to call the album Bilingual from the very beginning, partly because of the Latin flourishes, and partly because they thought it was funny.
Everyone forgets that when this album was released it received unanimously rave s right across the board and was released after two top ten singles.
They both agree that the album is too long; at one point Neil suggested re-editing it, removing 'Metamorphosis' and 'Electricity', and re-sequencing it for these reissues.

By the summer of 1996, just as the album was nearing release, they typically went off the title, and early reference CDs bore the alternative title Pet Shop Boys: That's the way life is. Then they thought again and changed their minds.
Even after the album was cut, we went back into the studio to add some more percussion, and re-cut the album with it on.
When we heard Dusty Springfield was doing what became her final album in Nashville, her manager Vicky Wickham phoned up and said, 'Do you want to write a song for Dusty?' and we didn't have anything, but I had this song, which was then a country song, and I sent it to her.

 Alternative and Bilingual
The album title stems not only from this experience itself (if music is something of a "language" then the Boys were establishing themselves as "bilingual" by so strongly embracing Latin music) but also from one of the songs, "Single," which was retitled "Single-Bilingual" for release as a—you guessed it—single.
Bilingual opens with this intense song, ostensibly set in a foreign land in which the lost protagonist is asking passers-by for directions to the nearest discoteque.
The only thing I might add is that, when this song was released as the album's third single, it was retitled "Single-Bilingual" to distinguish it from another song in current release also titled "Single." And it was by that "expanded" title that it would resurface in 2003 on the Boys' PopArt compilation.

 Pet Shop Boys : Bilingual - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
Disregard its sexual connotations and concentrate on its musical implications -- Bilingual is a rich, diverse album that delves deeply into Latin rhythms.
Instead, Bilingual is an enormously subtle album, with shifting rhythms and graceful, understated melodies.
If anything, it's further proof that even if the Pet Shop Boys aren't gracing the top of the charts as frequently as they did during the late '80s, they are crafting albums that are more adventurous and successful than they did when they were one of the top singles acts in pop music.

This Summer Institute was initiated in 1999 to help teachers obtain ESL or Bilingual Endorsements and thereby help alleviate the shortage of teachers certified to teach second language learners.
The Institutes are held at elementary schools which affords the Institute participants an opportunity to work with ESL students as a part of the UNM courses they are taking.
The Summer Institute is made possible by a Title VII grant from the Office of Bilingual Education and Minority Language Affairs and the UNM / Albuquerque Public School Partnership Programs.

 Amazon.com: Bilingual: Music: Pet Shop Boys   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Following the critical and commercial success of 1993's "Very", the Pet Shop Boys set off to create a album Neil Tennnant described as "an international album." Inspired by latin and Caribbean percussion the boys heard while on their Discovery tour- the groundwork for "bilingual" was set.
The album itself is a rather imbalanced affair that even Neil and Chris admit is too long an album.
Overall "Bilingual" is a good an album but may have left some of the PSB fan base disappointed arriving after the full-on dance pop explosion of "Very." Personally I enjoyed the album overall but do agree with other reviewers that "bilingual" was the first of their weaker albums.

 Multilingualism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Some authors have suggested that the distinction should only be made at the level of grammar rather than vocabulary, others use "coordinate bilingual" as a synonym for one who has learned two languages from birth, and others have proposed dropping the distinction altogether.

Under some early views, the language faculty was thought to be limited so that children with simultaneous dual language exposure were thought to be at risk for delayed or, worse, higher incidence of impaired language development in comparison to monolingual language learners.
As well, it was thought that the early stages of bilingual acquisition were essentially monolingual with a fused or undifferentiated system of languages.

 “Bilingual” the Pet Shop Boys Album review at Asian American Association
The album has been a major success, in fact, currently it has been the biggest success of any PSB album since 1986’s “Please.”; The boys, Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe, sing and rap about their sexuality, energy, and power.
A very danceable album, “Bilingual” features two kicking tracks that will have DJ’s spinning those tunes for years to come.
By changing their old mellow beat to a fast paced, nefarious techno-whip, the boys prove that they belong in the limelight and deserve to stay there for quite some time.

Bilingual est effectivement un album au double langage, au double niveau d'écoute.
Instrumentations riches et cuivrées, disco sophistiquée, Bilingual fait danser ("Se A Vida E") et en voit de toutes les couleurs.
Bilingual est plus subtil et recèle au fond de ses chansons légères une tristesse, une noirceur d'âme auxquelles on ne prêtera certes pas attention en discothèque, mais qui révélera son spleen lors d'une écoute tranquille.

Recording his first album in 1978, David Broza used the poetry of Israeli writer Yehonatan Geffen as his foundation.
In this bilingual album (Hebrew and English), the musician returns to Geffen as a source of inspiration along with Alberto Rios and English poet Shelley.
On this well-crafted and performed album, Broza wastes no time creating an acoustic roots number in "Time of Trains (I Will Wait for You)," which comes off as a more tranquil John Hiatt.

NEW YORK, Sept. 15 (UPI) -- Hip-hop producer Scott Storch and Philadelphia rapper Nox have begun work on a bilingual rap album as part of Nox's new deal with Atlantic Records.
"I'm working on a bilingual project with Scott," said the rapper, who lived in Puerto Rico until 1990.

By listening and comparing the two text the members of the community can enjoy the music, as well as learn new phrases and expressions in both languages.
PS The machine can be also programmed to accept new submissions-- an ideal possibility for local artists issue songs in two languages and expand their audience.
