A Beautiful Review From Week 32

Hi fellas, it’s been a while. So yeah, I was going through the entries of this week - wk32. And of course, I found someone that made sure to pull at my heart strings. I’m talking about @anslem005 performance of Essence by Wiskid and Tems.
Oh how much I love the guitar.
Alright, let me tell you something. There is just something about the guitar that I can’t seem to explain but I’m gonna try. It's not just an instrument; it's like an extension of your soul. A total mood changer; always setting the vibe. Like, it could make you feel like you're in your lounge sipping from a cup of hot coffee or on a beautiful road trip, all in the same chord. It's so magical I tell you.

For every reason I can think of, I think the guitar is why I’m so hooked on country music. It has this sincere raw emotion. The guitar has this insane way of pulling you into a story, whether you're listening to a slow song or dancing to a quick one. It just speaks to you and you instantly feel it. And when that guitar hits a perfect note? It’s like, "Yeah, that’s it!"

I watched @anslem005 perform his rendition of Essence and yea he did his thing. He totally brought that song to life. Like, I’ve heard that song a million times and one; because I actually love that song and Wiskid featured my favourite black girl - Tems, but when he started playing that lead guitar, it was like everything clicked. The guitar didn't just add sound; it added soul. It gave the song this balance it needed, bringing out the groove and emotions in a whole new way.

There is really something about how that guitar flows. It doesn’t really overpower the song, but it completes the vibe. Whether I’m listening to it doing a solo, or playing alongside the vocals, the guitar always has this way of speaking the language of my heart. It is versatile like that, you know? From country music genre to rock, from gentle blues to funky solos, it has got that range that taps into every emotion you could feel.

Honestly, maybe that’s why I connect so deeply with music. Because of the way the guitar speaks to my heart. It's not really just about the notes; it's mainly about how those notes make you feel when you hear it, and it hits you on another level when you hear it live, like when @anslem005 added that perfect touch to "Essence." He really did a good job and I applaud him for that. You can do well to check out his performance here
