Yeeees! I finally finished it!! I won't tell you how long I've been working on it, but I had this one in the woodwork for a lil' while ;)

It's a song by the band UB40, it's normally a Reggae song, but I changed the style to a slow Rnb song.
Let's be honest, I am sick, and I've been recording the entire week with a cold, it wasn't always fun, I might have lost it a few times, but I am done with it, and it feel so good...
There are plenty of things that I would like to fix, but I also like maintain a dead line, and now it's 240am, technically it's Friday and I have to upload :D the song, even if I don't think it's all finished.

My dear beloved wife @lionmom says that I am putting a tad too much pressure, on something that should be just fun, I cannot deny that it's true. Thank you also for helping me with the shooting, and stressing out everyone with my "content" hahah

This is also my coping mechanism, with everything that is going in the world right now, I have to constantly keep my self busy so I don't have to think too much about it.
I should be spending more times to work on originals though, but I can't help but thinking that covers are always a good way to bring people into your universe, and right now is the time to create content, that I can also use on other platforms, to attract more people on Hive too! It's free advertisement!

Don't mind me looking like shit, we even thought of putting make up on that poor guy, good job we pushed through the flu! Eat this Flu!!!

Kingston Town
UB40

The night seems to fade
But the moonlight lingers on
There are wonders for everyone
The stars shine so bright
But they're fading after dawn
There is magic in Kingston Town
Oh Kingston Town
The place I long to be
If I had the whole world
I would give it away
Just to see, the girls at play
And when I am king
Surely I would need a queen
And a palace and everything, yeah
And now I am king
And my queen will come at dawn
She'll be waiting in Kingston Town
Oh Kingston Town
The place I long to be
If I had the whole world
I would give it away
Just to see, the girls at play
Yeah
When I am king
Surely I would need a queen
And a palace and everything, yeah
And now I am king
And my queen will come at dawn
She'll be waiting in Kingston Town
She'll be waiting in Kingston Town
Right now
She'll be waiting in Kingston Town
Oh yeah
She'll be waiting in Kingston Town

I don't even know the song but your music and voice are 💯

The original is pretty cool, it's a reggae song, thanks for passing by @devyswan1!

You're welcome!

Didn't know you had cold, it was not noticed it in your voice. Yay, a new video to save in my playlist :)

About pressure, for sure, your wife is right, but yes, there are phases we are going through. This is good you are in full groove from recently, good to go with that energy, but don't hurt yourself too much hehe. Don't stop either :))

You two made a great work here, not just your musical part is super, but the cameraman (camerawoman ;) ) did excellent shots 👏

but don't hurt yourself too much hehe. Don't stop either :))

Thanks for a very conflicting message hahaha 😁. Just messing with you, I agree. At the same time, I know you are the type to be obsessed with work.

(camerawoman ;) ) did excellent shots 👏

Thanks darling, I will let her know that her work got noticed!!!

Thanks for a very conflicting message hahaha

You are welcome 😁

Sweet tune man, love UB40 but this covers awesome. Nice shirt btw 😁

Hahah thanks! It isn't pink though...

Hey @rubido, ask him about the time he did that push-up thing and I commented on his shirt.

I Will that sounds like it will be a great story

True have to try harder next time, maybe sport a gstring too

Sorry to hear that you're not feeling well. The song sounds great though. Really good quality sound. Nice work!

Thanks buddy, drinking some ginger and honey, and cancelled my lessons for the weekend.

Something just happened though, I am about to write about it (suspense music)

I'm intrigued!

Lol it's chicken related, relax hahaha.

they all got slaughtered. Come to think of it I shouldn't be laughing in a comment while talking about dead chickens.

It was a fox, presumably

Oh damn! That's unfortunate :(

À bientôt pour toi!

A classic indeed, loved UB40 when I was younger lol. Hope all is good with you guys, besides fighting the flu...and coping with this world.

Sending you good thoughts and your wife is right, don't stress out too much, esp when it comes to the nice things.😊

Thanks my friend, I am so happy that you're back! Don't go away for too long though, I understand the need for work, but we also need you here hahaha.

OMG what a nice start in my day...your words do mean something and they just made me smile 😊 . Thanks for that and you all have a great day 🤗

You too darling, it's raining here and everyonen's sick, so it's a warm fire and hot chocolate for everyone

Then get well everyone!!!!

If you still have some stinging nettles growing around the house, they make a great salad with a ton of good stuff in it.

They are rich in protein and contain the minerals calcium, magnesium, potassium, iron and silicon as well as vitamins A and C. The seeds contain linoleic acid, an essential polyunsaturated fatty acid (omega-6 fatty acid) and vitamin E.

The leaves and seeds tastes great, a bit nutty, with a good oil and some vinegar, salt, pepper, honey, mustard...done is a vinaigrette lol. If you try it make sure you wrap the leaves in a towel first and beat gently so the nettles pop open...otherwise you have party on your tongue but the flu might vanish quicker 😄 .

This is a beautiful song
Don't know it tho
But you really did a good job changing raggae to this sweet r n b
Version.
Looks like its original state..
And your back up (your wife probably), harmony was succinct and sweet too.
I think I have a lot to learn from you. @edprivat

Hey what's up doc!

Thanks so much :), nope I am doing everything, all the backups are me recorded on a different track. It's a long process to record everything, there are 3 tracks of backing vocals, 1 lead vocal, 1 guitar, and one "solo guitar" tracK mixed together.

Cheers my friend ^^

Oh that's great..
Totally cool with such sweetness came some work done.

I appreciate every effort put in to making this.
I know how long a time and how much work it could have taken.. But You Probably spent more.. 😊

Thanks again.

I'm writing this before I listen. All I did was read what you said and based on that alone I think it's already worthy the reward. Bra-vo or veaux or Voh homes.

I'm back.

How long's it been since I told you you make me wish I could pluck a guitar? I know this is my first time asking was that your first time lip syncing?

I edited this to say I mean "lip syncing on the blockchain"

How long's it been since I told you you make me wish I could pluck a guitar? I

You want some lessons bro?

I know this is my first time asking was that your first time lip syncing?

Dude I am the one that told you about the lip syncing, so I bet you we already had that convo at least 3 times. And yes, the first time I lip synced was that
So, lip sync or no lip sync?

You want some lessons bro?

I just wanna play like Stevie Ray. How many lessons will I need?

For sure—never noticed til you pointed it out. That wasn't offensive was it? Wasn't supposed to be. Man I wish you wouldn't ask me like that. I don't think it matters that much what I think.

How many lessons will I need?

You gonna need to adopt the STevie Ray life. Meaning the guitar is sleeping in your bed now.

For sure—never noticed til you pointed it out. That wasn't offensive was it? Wasn't supposed to be. Man I wish you wouldn't ask me like that. I don't think it matters that much what I think

Of course you do. You were oblivious to it, and I even remember the first time I pointed out for you that people were lip syncing.
It was on the video of that chick, you remember?

You gonna need to adopt the STevie Ray life. Meaning the guitar is sleeping in your bed now.

Yeah I can't afford that dude.

(Eh I haven't had this much fun in the comment section for a minute)

I 100% remember. I still feel deceived!!

Man, are you back 100%?

How many comments on your last video?

I never left.

A lot, just the way I like it. The comment section is important to me, can you tell? Thanks for noticing. 👍🏿

Limelight is on right now. Homie I saw these guys. Front row. Front-front. I could see Neal Pert sweat. When they did Working Man I was 'Oh this is my jam.'

I didn't want to say anything earlier but I think lionmom may be overreacting and I totally get it. There hasn't been a click of the post button yet that didn't include a sweaty palm.

Wha about Jeff Beck? How many guitars would I have to sleep with to play like him?
