Steemit Open Mic Week 51 - To share (Original Song)

in #openmic7 years ago

I wrote this song for a special person. It took me a while to realize it was really me.

Another sleepless night restless candle recording played on a half broken guitar (that i like so much). It's a one take and I just left it like this. I felt like imperfection is appropriate. Love isn't perfect either.

You have a great voice, and shared a really good song! Thank you for singing!

Thanks for listening! :)

Awesome You get my Upvote ;)

dear Melavie, I love this song so much. Would it be possible for you to send me the lyrics? Maybe some of the chords? (as played with your capo on 5th, right?) I was possibly thinking of covering it maybe? I can't do it as well as you and might have to adjust the melody just slightly so I dont go out of pitch, because your voice goes way higher than mine.. I'm just in awe. I've listened to day to every single one of your open mic entries. I feel like I've been to war. I've seen things. I know things now that I didn't know before. Thank you for sharing your music with the world, it is such a gift. Much love! ♥serena
If you could send the lyrics if you are able and don't mind, to matthewshightower@comcast.net I would be so grateful. thank you so much. ♥

Thank you so much Serena. Your comment humbles me. your songs have a similar effect on me. They move something deep deep inside of me and they somehow change my world. It would be such an honor if you do a cover of my song. Lyrics and chords coming soon. Much love back! <3

This makes me so happy! I didn't know how else to get in touch with you, other than happening to stumble across you at a discord show or something. And this post is like 6 months old so I was afraid it might be too old to actually have steemit notify you of the comment. Thank you so much, I appreciate it!! ♥

Happy loops everywhere. (:)
I am so exited. Mail is out. <3

Beautiful voice and performance. Thank you for having the guts to share it.

Took me too long to find them it seems.
Thank you for listening and appreciating.

Sweet voice and for a broken guitar it sounds pretty good.

The guitar is a heirloom from a relative. I treated it with much love (as you can see) but it's used and stubborn and sometimes won't play all the strings like it's supposed to. Just like my fingers at 2 am.
Thanks for the appreciation. I will play on then. :)

Absolutely fantastic, I might be your biggest fan... Great writing, beautiful voice...

Beautiful! Thank you for the appreciation!

You dont need that guitar. The voice alone is already heavenly.

Thank you. :)

beautiful song

Happy to hear that. Thanks for listening!

Oh, hell girl--love stinks!:D

If I would have written that song yesterday evening this would have been the title.
I just was in this naive romantic state while creating it. I think there are a few different approaches to that topic and they change very quickly. ;)

Lovely voice, I love the song :)

Thank you! :)

Lovely song and beautiful voice!
I watched your video until the end.

All the Best!
