Happy Tuesday, Hive fam! 🙂
I've covered a ballad by American Rock Band, Mr Big's To Be With You on the guitar.
Here are some facts about the song -
- The song was released in late 1991 as the second single from their second album, Lean into It. This year marks 30 years of the song!
- The song reached number one on the US Billboard Hot 100 for three weeks and topped the charts in 11 other countries, including Australia, Canada, Germany and New Zealand.
- The song was written and composed by lead singer - Eric Martin and lead guitarist Paul Gilbert. The lyrics was inspired by a girl Martin knew when he was younger. The girl had a lot of boyfriends who treated her poorly and the singer wants her to know that he's the one who really wants to be with her, treat her right and make her smile.
Here's the link to the original song -
Lyrics
Hold on little girl
Show me what he's done to you
Stand up little girl
A broken heart can't be that bad
When it's through, it's through
Fate will twist the both of you
So come on baby, come on over
Let me be the one to show you
I'm the one who wants to be with you
Deep inside I hope you feel it too
Waited on a line of greens and blues
Just to be the next to be with you
Build up your confidence
So you can be on top for once
Wake up, who cares about
Little boys that talk too much
I've seen it all go down
Your game of love was all rained out
So come on baby, come on over
Let me be the one to hold you
I'm the one who wants to be with you
Deep inside I hope you feel it too
Waited on a line of greens and blues
Just to be the next to be with you
Why be alone when we can be together baby?
You can make my life worthwhile
I can make you start to smile
When it's through, it's through
Fate will twist the both of you
Come on baby, come on over
Let me be the one to show you
I'm the one who wants to be with you
Deep inside I hope you feel it too
Waited on a line of greens and blues
Just to be the next to be with you
I'm the one who wants to be with you
Deep inside I hope you feel it too
Waited on a line of greens and blues
Just to be the next to be with you
Just to be the next to be with you
First shot at playing the guitar lead on Hive as well.
