Openmic 104 | Roses by James Arthur(cover)
Hello musicians and music lovers!
This week's theme was though to decypher at first, i later was told that we had to consuder automatic weapons wth a guitar and compare also their potential. One destroys and the other creates.
This theme makes me proud to have picked up the creative one in my life, i am also greatful that i dont have to think about the other one as an option. Peace is often underestimated until war strikes, so with this song today, i celebrate peace and my freedom to play music.
Earlier this week, i found a corner at a fence, close to a lake and fortuntely also, i came accross a few friends who were more than happy to help make a video for this openmic. Michael played the guitar while Precious was on the camera. Michael also got a verse, he's looking forward to being here in hive and i intend to show him how to participate by having him observe while this post. I know hell be a good fit here because he loves to learn new things and is dedicated to pursuing a music career.
The new corner is quite convenient as it’s not too close to where visitors of the lake are and it’s out in the open so I can be more expressive with my singing too. I will however have to only make videos here when the sun is right or I might move the spot along the fence for a better angle in terms of sunlight… What do you think of my new spot?
Roses
Lyrics
I could've chose anybody but I chose you oo oo oo
help me get better you pull me right out of the blue oo oo oo
and daddy don't like you, but daddy and I never speak ee ee eek
every night when I wake up I need you to get back to sleep ee ee eep
smells like roses to me
two young lovers at sea
tastes so bitter, so sweet
cuz you're my bang
together we go bang bang bang
bang bang bang
bang bang bang
bang bang bang o o o
You could've chose anybody but you chose me ee ee ee
Hiding in bedsits cause no one around us agreed ee ee ees
and I feel romantic cause since morning I've been acting wild ah ah ah
can we eat all the poisons and leave all the questions behind hi hi hind
smells like roses to me
two young lovers at sea
tastes so bitter so sweet
cause you're my bang
together we'll go bang bang bang
bang bang bang
bang bang bang
bang bang bang o o o

Wow, I never get tired of saying it, you have a prodigious voice, you are a great artist friend, I congratulate you, everything you interpret you are able to transmit it. Thanks for sharing 🌹🌻🌹🌻🌹🌻🌹🌻🌹🌻🌹🌻
And I never get tired of hearing you sweet words @mayifiestas 😅. Thank you for listening and for your comment… I hope you’re having a wonderful day today
Oh wow, what a beautiful duet we listen to! And again, a lot of emotions that you brought to your singing 🙌
I'm happy to hear about the emotions, @khaleesii says my face is usually emotionless.. we recently did a duet which I haven't yet posted. We did well over ten takes, mostly because according to her my facial expressions were rubbish...
So @khaleesii you were saying? 😌
You are finally changing so that's good, praise God.
Maybe as for music, it is more important the listening factor, @khaleesii :))
Listen close @khaleesii 😪
Hatn is bad for you🤣
@almostsober, you are putting me in the spotlight forgetting that in our duet you looked lost most of the time 😆
The listening factor is very important but I feel like emotions also matter while singing, makes it more touching.
Hahaha, guys!! When I see the duet, I will tell if @khaleesii were right :)))
The final one was way better, I wish we kept all and did a compilation, there was a huge difference from start to end.
So I will never see THAT one and see the difference 😅
wow, what a cool idea, imagine if we would do from our takes a compilation hahaha, from the first ones to the final versions .... it would be fun 😂
anyway, I published one version for my yesterday's entry and @almostsober heard one mistake at the end and pointed it out :(
It would actually be cool to see compilations of the process people go through before the final output, might give a lot of insight.
Exactly 👍
Yeah, I looked like crap and I kept forgetting where to come in for my part😆
That's not true though, you didn't look like crap, besides you were doing most of the work.
Very true, well, I'm almostsober for a reason... that just about justifies the expressions i think:)
😆 I bet almost sober people have facial expressions though.
Great job my man. Tell Michael he owe me a collabo too. I've made my video for next week. This weeks theme did not come so easy to me.
I loved tge environment you chose too...I need a guitar so I can explore places other than my room.
Oh yeah, I meant to ask, cause you said the theme was colors and that left me quite confused afterwards. That was at ox-bow lake though, next time you’re in town we should do a video at the lakeside just at the edge of the jetty
Aiit...I'd love that...I've got few options of places to move to...Bayelsa is top on the list though.
what a beautiful song brother. your voice is very good and with that excellent accompaniment that you have by your side they do magic. a beautiful landscape very green. A hug
Ah, thanks bro 😅
I glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for complimenting on my new spot too:)
Finally, you are back, I missed hearing you sing and this was worth waiting for.
I missed your kind words too, I’m glad to be back…
You are welcome.
Beautiful voice, keep it up.
Nice one dear
Be killing us with your voice.. lol
No vex, I go stop… thanks @prechidi
