  1. Hi Arantxa! I love this song! These are the examples I found:

    1. CONDITIONAL SENTENCE: If you're ever in trouble I'll be there on the double, just send for me.

    2. TWO IMPERATIVE FORMS: Don't worry/ Listen baby.

    3. "TO KEEP ME FROM GETTING TO YOU": Que me mantenga alejado de ti.

    4. CONTRAST CONNECTOR: Although (we are miles apart).

    5. COMPARATIVE SENTENCE: "just as fast as I can"

    1. Hi Alexis!
      You are getting better and better! Search for a sentence using as...as, that's a type of comparative ( tan...como). I am glad you liked the song. You can practise your pronunciation singing it out loud.
      Best,

    1. Hi Lucía!
      Thanks for answering and well done!I would say that T to keep me from getting to you" is more like " que me impidan llegar hacia ti". What do you think?

  8. Hi Arantxa! Hope you're okay.
    1. "If you need me, call me"
    2. "Listen baby"
    3. Lo traduciría como "que pueda alejarme de ti" refiriéndose a la frase completa de: "no hay nada que pueda alejarme de ti" o también me parecería bastante lógico traducirlo como: "no hay nada que me impida llegar hasta ti"
    4. "My love is alive, way down in my heart, although we are miles apart"
    5. "Just as fast as I can"
