For the anecdote, if you're interested, it was once of the first song i recorded and posted almost 4 years ago at the beginning of my crypto journey.
It's been a long road haha, a lot of content completely forgotten, lot of video posted with few bucks made, and now, only now after all that work it starts paying off.
Does it sound familiar? Haha, a lot of us here, gave it all, even thought we could make a living with it, and perhaps had to readjust our expectations along the way, however I have a feeling that this time around, things are different.
I had the idea of playing this song again, just to see where I am at, to bring new eyes, I waited for a clear sky, for at least a week now, raining every day!
Finally, the sky cleared for a little while, but what was the hardest to beat, was the cold! Oh god, my hands were freezing!
For that matter, it was quite difficult to play the pentatonic, the first take wasn't that great lol.
Before recording the second take, the birds stopped singing, so I knew it was my cue! After the that clouds covered the sky once more, I knew there won't be another take :/ I am happy with this one though!
I changed the Lyrics a little :D to fit my narrative!
Cheers!
Isn't She Lovely - Stevie Wonder
Isn't she lovely
Isn't she wonderful
Isn't she precious
Less than one minute old
I never thought through love we'd be
Making one as lovely as she
But isn't she lovely made from love
Isn't she pretty
Truly the angel's best
Boy, I'm so happy
We have been heaven blessed
I can't believe what God has done
Through us he's given life to one
But isn't she lovely made from love
Isn't she lovely
Life and love are the same
Life is a MIscha
The meaning of her name
Lerato, it could have not been done
Without you who conceived the one
That's so very lovely made from love

And I can't load 3Speak either!
I think it is me, I seem to be having trouble with my internet connection, even for peakd the last 3 to 4 days.
I may not be able to listen, but I bet it is good :D
Try this one, I always double upload just in case! I also had issues with my connection, I wonder if it's global. THanks for having faith haha
Boom!!
I knew I wouldn't be disappointed
Love the ad-libs/beat-box ;D
I like the sun setting on the horizon too
Thanks so much!! I am going to work on your request, time to learn again!
Cheers!
Edit: I can't find it!! Aaaaah!
Bravo, Bravo!! Just loved your version of Stevie Wonders song. The album "Songs in the Key of Life" was one of many favs long ago. Your voice on this one was great, nice high notes and beats. Nice going pal, love your music.
Thanks so much @farm-mom this is one of my favorite Stevie Wonder's song, and as you say, the entire album is an inspiration to greatness! Thanks again it means a lot!
You are welcome. We have listened to that album so many times, both the sweed and I know all the words.
In fact, when Bob was a teacher, he did this week long lessen that included music, Stevie Wonders' album was played , the words were discussed and written about by his students. It was an amazing project , his kids loved it.
A teacher including Stevie Wonder is his lessons, is probably the best teacher!
It's a long stretch, but does The Sweed has notes?
Awesome man! I love the beat boxing in there. So cool.
Great photos as well. Definitely album cover worthy.
Dude your hands must have been freezing. I can only imagine. Even the inside of my house is an arctic tundra these days. I can barely type on my phone lol.
Very familiar. At one point I thought I was going to be able to pay for my university with - at the time, Steem. Lol
Hey friend how are you?
It's Friday now and you know what it means? It means it's gin & tonic time!
Yeah bro freezing hands, and I am thinking of getting some special gloves to be able to play once the snow is coming. It's great, because it's going to save me some travel once the snow is here, making the backdrop look so different 😊
Same bro hahah, I though steem was going to be like a real job or something. But you know what? Who the fuck knows how far we going, look at us now with our big upvotes and shit!
Is that what Friday means? Why am I just learning learning this now!?
Snow will make for some cool videos. You're definitely going to need those gloves though.
Yeah man! Exciting times
Savage, never knew this was the first tune you did, as didn't know ya back then! Great version and loving that sunset!!
Sunrise!!! It has less pollutions than sunsets, though in the countryside, we don't have much issues with that!
THanks for the lovely comment brother!
What?????? This is lovely!
Everything is really beautiful,
The Setting! , The Pictures, The Voice...
I like the way you started, infact I love the way it sounds on my headphones. I hear the beats clearly.
My favourite parts start from (1:45) , I love the (I don't know what it is called hahahaha).
@edprivat you are amazing, I'm happy I found you when I was writing my October puD's post. I think then you were still considering quitting music here! I wonder why that thought came in but well I'm glad we are here now!
Edited - I think you just moved and was working a Kingston cover
!PIZZA
Starting from 1:45 is called The Bridge, which is the middle part of the song!
Thanks for your very cool comment haha!
Its been a while since I've seen you - but I never forget about coming to see you!!!! hahahaha I love the story behind you taping this... I was just saying the same thing in a comment. that if people want to come now? the best advice I could give them is "manage your expectations" hahahahaa
but you're right - it does pay off over time, and we endured and it's so much fun!!! hahaha
now as for the song, i love your voice. and i love your playing. You have such a style - I was playing 3 of your songs in a row while I was getting ready to go out - and it was like I was listening to one of my favorite stations on spotify or something hehehehe
