(I Can't Help) Falling in Love with You
(I Can't
Help) Falling in Love is a song originally recorded by American singer
Elvis Presley. It was written by Hugo Peretti, Luigi Creatore and George David
Weiss. The melody is based on "Plaisir d'amour" (1784), a popular
romance by Jean Paul Egide Martini (1741–1816). It was featured in Elvis
Presley's 1961 film, Blue Hawaii. During the following four decades, it was
recorded by numerous other artists, including British reggae group UB40, whose
1993 version featured in the film Sliver topped the U.S. and UK charts.
Here you have this last version.
Wise men
say,
Only fools rush in
Only fools rush in
But I can't
help falling in love with you... (x2)
Shall I
stay
Would it be
a sin
Cause' I
can't help falling in love with you...
As the
river flows,
Gently to the sea
Gently to the sea
Darlin' so
we go, some things were meant to be...
Take my
hand,
Take my whole life too
Take my whole life too
Cause' I
can't help fallin in love with you...
As the

I can't

How to Write an Essay
An essay has to be structured in three key elements:
- Introduction
- Body Paragraphs
- Conclusion
1) Introduction
You should do just two things:
- State the topic of the essay, using some basic facts (that you may be able to take from the question)
- Say
what you are going to write about
2) Body Paragraphs
You should have 2 or 3 body paragraphs - no
more, and no less.
For your body paragraph, each paragraph should
contain one controlling idea, and have sentences to support this.
3) Conclusion
The conclusion only needs to be one or two sentences, and you can do the
following:
- Re-state
what the essay is about (re-write the last sentence of your introduction
in different words)
- Give
some thoughts about the future.

What does a good essay need?

based on evidence.
·
An academic essay should answer a question or
task.
·
It should have a thesis statement (answer to
the question) and an argument.
·
It should try to present or discuss something:
develop a thesis via a set of closely related points by reasoning and
evidence.
·
An academic essay should include relevant
examples, supporting evidence and information from academic texts or credible
sources.
