Welcome to my entry for this week’s Vibes Web 3 music competition! I’m thrilled to present a cover of "How Far I'll Go," the theme song from Disney’s Moana. I was really excited about this week’s Disney-inspired theme, which instantly made me think of the many Disney movies I’ve enjoyed over the years. This nostalgia led me to choose a song from Moana, which was released in 2016. I still vividly remember the day a friend introduced me to the movie, and somehow for some reason up till this date i still sing the song mindlessly. it was a no brainer to chose to cover how far i'll go which remains in my head rent free to this day
The original "How Far I'll Go," composed by Auli'i Cravalho, is truly unforgettable, and while many covers have been made, I still believe the original stands out. I’ve put my own spin on it, and I hope you enjoy my version.
Lyrics
… I've been staring at the edge of the water
Long as I can remember, never really knowing why
I wish I could be the perfect daughter
But I come back to the water, no matter how hard I try
… Every turn I take, every trail I track
Every path I make, every road leads back
To the place I know, where I can not go
Though I long to be
… See the line where the sky meets the sea? it calls me
And no one knows how far it goes
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me
One day I'll know
If I go, there's just no telling how far I'll go
… Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
… I know everybody on this island
Seems so happy on this island
Everything is by design
I know everybody on this island
Has a role on this island
So maybe I can roll with mine
… I can lead with pride, I can make us strong
I'll be satisfied if I play along
But the voice inside sings a different song
What is wrong with me?
… See the light as it shines on the sea, it's blinding
But no one knows how deep it goes
And it seems like it's calling out to me, so come find me
And let me know what's beyond that line
Will I cross that line?
… See the line where the sky meets the sea, it calls me
And no one knows how far it goes
If the wind in my sail on the sea stays behind me
One day I'll know how far I'll go
