    The present study seeks to investigate students and teachers’ attitudes towards the effectiveness of English songs in developing the listening skill. It attempts to determine whether third year students and teachers of the Department of English at Mouloud Mammeri University of Tizi Ouzou are interested in the use of songs for the sake of improving listening comprehension. This study is based on the Input and Affective Filter Hypotheses proposed by Krashen in 1981 and using the Mixed Methods Research. In fact, it combines the students’ questionnaire and the teachers’ interview in order to collect the intended data. We have adopted Statistical Package for the Social Sciences and Discourse Analysis in order to analyze the data. On the basis of the outcomes of the investigation, it is revealed that third year students have positive attitudes towards using English songs to enhance their listening abilities. The implementation of songs in the classroom is approved by teachers of listening as a strategy to develop the students’ listening skill.
