In pedagogy songs have long been treated as an effective tool to raise motivation and memory. The article highlights the options for working with authentic French songs in a language classroom to reveal their potential for forming and developing the linguistic competence. To achieve this goal the authors consider the set of songs correlating with the curriculum, offer a system of exercises and tasks to develop linguistic competence and discuss the results of the experimental study demonstrating the efficacy of using French songs for certain teaching purposes.
