Original:
Recently I’ve been watching a TV show, singers who wear mask and strange clothes. It is a TV show that has some singers who sing songs, every Sunday. This show is secret because the host wants to cover the singer’s identity. Some people maybe 6 or 7 will sit in front of the stage and try to guess who they are. You can hear some songs and you can also attend this game. You have to spread your brain to guess who they are. It is quite funny. I watched the fourth episode of this seasons. Those singers try to hide their identity and say a lot of lies. When they are singing, I think its really good because we don’t know who they are at that time. They can sing in a different style. I seldom to watch TV shows but I also watch Britains got Talent to practise my listening. It isn’t easy to watch these kinds of TV shows because of internet controlling.
