Abstract :This study examines the impact that listening to songs in English by Kosovo students has on learning English. In the study, listening to as many English songs as possible by the students, either in their free time or in the foreign language class is seen as a positive factor that accelerates the learning of the foreign language (English) by the students. The purpose of this study is to see the role of listening to English songs in learning English by students in Kosovo. Therefore, the study confirms the hypothesis that students who listen to English-language music have better English language skills, compared to other students who do not listen to, or listen to very little, English music. The research approach applied in the study is quantitative research approach. The sampling of the study includes students who study in the economic high school in the municipality of Gjilan. The instruments implemented in the study include a questionnaire. The main results and conclusions of the study prove that students who listen to music in English have better speaking and comprehension skills in English, compared to other students who listen to little or no music in English. Referring to the results of the study, it is suggested to English teachers to incorporate English songs into their teaching, to improve their speaking and comprehension skills. This suggestion also applies to teachers who teach any foreign language.
