After listening to music for a few hours, I watched an American drama on DVD. I had a strange experience at that time. I noticed that I was able to hear English more than usual.
I didn't listen to songs with English lyrics. I just listened to instrumental music. Even though I hadn't heard any English sounds, my listening skills were improved for an English language. I was wondering how it had happened.
I decided to analyze my hearing process and I discovered an interesting phenomenon. Usually, I regard English as a second language. However, after hearing music for a while, I felt that English conversation was like music.
The vowels was like a series of the pitch of sounds and the consonants was like noises made by percussions. I noticed that I could hear English conversations as interesting music with melody and rhythm.
It might be a key point to listen to a second language.

Is "hear" what you really mean? Did you mean "understand" or "comprehend"?
(2)
> my listening skills were improved when used for the English language.
This sentence is awkward. It would be more natural to say something like: "I found my improved listening skills helped when I listened to English"
Also, just saying "English" instead of "the English Language" is acceptable in most cases.
You're doing very well. I didn't even need to correct most of your sentences.
Thank you for your correction and advice.
