Who hasn't heard Gotye's song Somebody That I Used to Know so far? Some of us even have thought he was Sting's son as his timbre is rather similar. However, he is not even British, but Belgian-Australian. The name "Gotye" is derived from "Gauthier", the French equivalent of "Walter" or "Wouter", his real name.
Taking advantage of the video we are going to revise not so common word of the semantic field of body. Afterwards I am going to talk about tattooing in New Zealand as body art. The we will open a debate about tattoos.

The song and the activities have been chosen and done by Jaume C. and I expect he revises the use of used to for past habits.

Somebody that I used to know
Now and then I think of when we were together
Like when you said you felt so _____ you could die
I told myself that you were right for me
But felt so lonely in your company
But that was love and it's an ache I still _____
You can get addicted to a certain kinda sadness
Like resignation to the end, _____ the end
So when we found that we could not make sense
Well you said that we would still be _____
But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over
But you didn't have to cut me off
Make it like it never happened and that we were nothing
I don't even need your love, but you treat me like a stranger
And that feels so rough
No, you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records
And then _____ your number
Guess that I don't need that though
_____ you're just somebody that I used to know (repeated)
Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
But had me believing it was always something that I'd _____
But I don't wanna live that _____
Reading into every word you say
You said that you could let it _____
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know .

2.- Correct the sentences.
And I not even need your love.
