Steemit Openmic Week 111: “There Must Be A Way”

in #openmic6 years ago (edited)


Hi there fellow Steemers. Ive been absent from the Openmic for a while. Life is crazy sometimes. I’ve been going through a lot of stuff and I don’t have a guitar with me, which makes solo playing a little more interesting. I wont have a guitar for at least 4 months, probably more so I’ll be doing things a little differently.

This is an old jazz standard called There Must be a Way. I know it from Louis Armstrong but I’m sure its been done several times. I love this tune and the sentiment is perfect for what I’m feeling here now that my partner has returned to London. The original lyrics are about a lover who has no intention of coming back while we are going strong and just missing each other on a shorter timeline. So I took some liberties with the lyrics.

Im happy to be back amongst the open mic community. Much Love.

wow dude I am feeling this! Seriously awesome! The vibe here is off the charts. From the bluegreen empty wall setting to the snap accompaniment I was already feeling it and then the trombone came in to close the deal. I love your voice man. Vocal control is incredible here, love the gentle nuances

Thank you so much. I've always struggled to be able to relax when I sing and let it come freely without stress, especially at louder volumes. Its been a gradual letting go process and I feel like I'm pretty close to that freedom I've been working for. Glad you dug the trombone too :)
