A few years ago I met some Japanese tourists who spoke very little English. The English they did know came from songs by the Beatles. Although this wasn't very practical in everyday communication it highlighted to me how we absorb information presented with rhythm and melody. If this information has other hooks like rhyming and is placed with contemporary music the laborious and dry task of learning information can be made enjoyable and even subliminal . The advertising industry has used this for many decades.
