Hello Hive Open Mic
It's me again and I'm here to rock!!! Haha

_{_{Image is designed here}}

I want to specially thank our spotlight artist for choosing this song and making me have a hard time finding a song that would fit in. I realized I don't know rock songs... Not one I could remember for my participation to this theme.

But I decided to think of a song this way, a song that would get me dancing and happy... Isn't that what rock songs do mostly? hehe. So I thought of this song my dad would play all the time that I remember moving my body to (I'm a bad dancer so I call it body moving 😂).

"When you're looking like that by Westlife" is one of those songs that I didn't mind the lyrics and what it actually means but I just enjoy the beat, the sounds and the gun I derive from listening to it... I don't know about others who know this song very well but that is it for me.

Well, along the line I've come to know the lyrics very well since I've literally known and been singing this song from when I was like 9 years.

I tried my best to vibe to the song... Don't laugh at my body movement 😩

Bear with it, listen to the song and if possible, vibe with me... You're free to vibe more than I did 😂 I don't care, I'll be very happy to know that I made you move your body while listening to the cover.

Here's the lyrics for whoever wants to sing along

When you're looking like that
Yeah, yeah

She's five foot ten, in catsuit and Bambi eyes
Everybody who's staring wouldn't believe that this girl was mine
I should have known I was wrong
When I left her for a life in pity
But they say you never miss the water until it's gone

'Cause I failed to love you
And just taking it out tonight

Am I supposed to leave you now
When you're looking like that?
I can't believe what I just gave away
Now I can't take it back
I don't wanna get lost
I don't wanna live my life without you
Am I supposed to leave you now
When you're looking like that?

She's all dressed up for glamour and rock and roll
Wanna squeeze her real tight
Get out of this place if only I can take control
But she's out of my reach forever
And just a week ago she lied next to me
It's so ironic how I had to lose just to see

That I failed to love you
And you're taking it out tonight

I don't wanna forget you
I don't even wanna try
Am I supposed to walk on by?
When you're looking like that
How am I supposed to leave you?
When you're looking like that
I can't believe what I just gave away (Oh no)
If I can't take it back, I'm lost
I don't wanna live my life without you (Live my life without you)
Am I supposed to leave you now?
When you're looking like that
