Hive Open Mic Week 291: A Cover of Jealous by Labrinth
Hello everyone! I’m happy to be back for this week’s contest. With the theme of "Autumn Harmonization", I’ve chosen to perform 'Jealous' by Labrinth, a soulful piece released in 2014. This song really resonates with me deeply, because it beautifully conveys a blend of warmth and emotional depth, even while reflecting its darker themes. The lyrics touch on the complexities of love and loss, particularly the bittersweet ones, the pain of watching someone you care about walk out of one's life. As the leaves change color to yellow and the air grows crisp, I feel this song perfectly captures the feeling of longing that often follows the change of seasons. I can’t wait to share my rendition with all of you and hope it strikes a chord!
LYRICS
I'm jealous of the rain
That falls upon your skin
It's closer than my hands have been
I'm jealous of the rain
I'm jealous of the wind
That ripples through your clothes
It's closer than your shadow
Oh, I'm jealous of the wind
'Cause I wished you the best of all this world could give
And I told you when you left me
There's nothing to forgive
But I always thought you'd come back
Tell me all you found was heartbreak and misery
It's hard for me to say
I'm jealous of the way
You're happy without me
