Hello, this is 6 Minute English from BBC Learning English, I'm Sam.

And I'm Neil.

There are a million songs about falling in love and just as many about being broken-hearted.

Do you remember the first time you fell in love, Sam?

Ah yes, I was 14 and it seemed like every word of every love song had been written just for me.

Oh, there's a strong connection between music and love.

As Shakespeare famously wrote, if music be the food of love, play on.

In this programme, we'll be meeting a singer-songwriter who used music to express her feelings

of falling in love and later to mend her broken heart when the relationship ended.

And as usual, we'll be learning some new vocabulary as well.

But first, I have a question for you, Neil.

Your mention of Shakespeare reminds me of Romeo and Juliet, his famous lovers who fall in love,

despite their fighting families, only to die tragically young.

But in which Italian city was Romeo and Juliet set?

Was it A, Florence, B, Venice, or C, Verona?

I think it must be one of the world's most romantic cities, Florence.

Okay, Neil, I'll reveal the answer later in the programme.

Julia Jacqueline is an Australian singer-songwriter whose song

don't know how to keep loving you, reach number eight in the Australian pop charts.

Her song lyrics explore feelings of falling in love, as well as the pain of breaking up.
