How about some of the Dubno tunes from Underworld? Stuff like Spoonman, Cowgirl & Dirty Epic.

I know a lot of what Karl says doesn't make literal sence but figuring out the actual words & possible meanings could be quite a good lesson.

It's 106 miles to Chicago.
We got a full tank of gas,
half a pack of cigarettes.
It's dark and we are wearing sunglasses

Amíg az óra áll mondd a helyes időt kétszer egy nap
Even a stopped clock tells the right time twice a day


This one worked well today... I whispered it to the first person in English who whispered it in Hungarian to his neighbour, who whispered it to his neighbour in English and so on all round the class... great fun :D

What about Phonem ? I can't remember the name of the track, but there's one with a guy going "Unit 1, section A. 1. Pronounce these longforms." And it goes into this whole cool thing with a voicesynth pronouncing them :)
