Sonic Groove Live Week 3 - Sleep - Azure Ray (Cover)

in #sonicgroove5 years ago (edited)

First off, I want to say that I'm really happy to be engaging in a Steem based music project again. I was really sad to see open mic disappear, but when one door closes...

I have to admit, I didn't play much in the time I've been on 'hiatus' from here. That said, I've recently started playing more and with some encouragement from @Krystle when I first found out about Sonic Groove, I was excited to enter.

I just checked before posting this and it looks like I mangled the rules but I'm cool with it not counting :shrug: haha.

So here's my cover of Sleep by Azure Ray.

Lyrics

Fill these spaces up with days
In my room you can go you can stay
I can't sleep I can't speak to you
Now these years locked in my drawer
I'll open to see just to be sure
I can't sleep I can't speak to you
And so I'm reaching out for the one
And so I've learned the meaning of the sun
And all this like a message comes
To shift my point of view
I'm watching through my own light
As it tints the shade of you
Hold my wine hold it in
Nobody's lost but nobody wins

Sort:  

Listen, I had no idea you had pipes. You're good. I don't know music but try a happier tune next time? Hah, I joke, but I liked it. Maybe some water, too? I wanna be able to bump this while I game.

Could have definitely done with some water! At least I cleared my self along with the rhythm :D

I dig the sad songs. ha ha. It would kill my own personal fanbase if I abandoned them. I'm a melancholy extremist.

Glad you liked it :)

Yay! Elliot is back with the covers!

Yeah man, I got it covered now.

Awesome Elliot, well played. Good to see your face again. Xoxo

First of all.. that was seriously quite fantastic, I am familiar with that song and can honestly say that you nailed it. I love your voice, very delicate and yet commanding. Well done ♥

Secondly, do you use discord? Since you're entering the SGL contest, it would be awesome to also have you in the server so you can mingle with other contestants, musicians.. fans .. smartasses like me. There are fewer smartasses than awesome musicians and such. If that is more of an attraction.
