Yow! It's time for another blog. I've been pushing myself to try things I've never done before, such as this. I never exposed myself to other singers who put forth a valiant effort. Many things are beginning to change me. I will continue to try to master abilities until the day comes when I can declare that this is a rewarding hardwork result.
This is my entry for this week's hive open mic contest. I was recently considering what music would be perfect for me to share with everyone when I came across a video of a couple who are estranged from each other. Then I relate that to my own tale of a difficult love life I had in 2020.
I had a girlfriend with whom I had been in a relationship for almost a year. We had a great time in 2019 because she was a classmate of mine. I used to go see her after class was over. Everything that happens in 2019 will change in 2020, giving the partnership a shiver. The song "Having you close me" mirrored my circumstances because of the epidemic. It's impossible for me to pretend it didn't hurt.
Now I'm going to share this song cover that I made with everyone here. This is the first time I've posted a video of myself singing a song. I had a lot of fun singing it. And it brings up recollections from my past that I can't get back.
Title: Having You Near Me
Written by: Air Supply
Lyrics:
I came to you and never asked too much
Wondering what you would say
Hoping you'd understand
It's not a role I usually play
Don't speak too much of what's been going on
The past is over and gone
Give me your troubled mind
You know it's used
I can do so much for you
I want you
Having you near me, holding you near me
I want you to stay and never go away
It's so right
Having you near me, holding you near me
I'll love you tonight, it feels so right
Feels so right
You're brave to say that you get lost in love
But you opened your heart to me
Underneath all you feel you know
How deep our love could be
Tonight we'll touch until it's time to go
Then I'm leaving it up to you
Even a fool would know that I'm not through
I can do so much for you
I want you
Having you near me, holding you near me
I want you to stay and never go away
It's so right
Having you near me, holding you near me
I'll love you tonight, it feels so right
Feels so right
Thank you for hosting this contest; it has re-enlightened me to improve my skills, such as singing. Being able to enter this contest and share my video of me singing cover music has been a lot of fun. I'm hoping this competition will continue. Also, thank you to everyone who has contributed to this contest.
