Hi Everyone

This is my entry for round 2 of the Hive music festival. This week I am playing around with a version of Ed Sheerans "Shape Of You"
. I threw in a chorus from TLC's song No Scrubs as it can be played with a similair chord progression and beat .I thought it would be fun to slip in part of another song then come back to "Shape of you"
I figured doing this adds an extra touch of originallity and also makes the song more fun for me.

I hope you guys enjoy the video.

"Shape of You"
Ed Sheeran

A club isn't the best place to find a lover
So the bar is where I go
Me and my friends at the table doing shots
Drinking fast and then we talk slow
And you come over and start up a conversation with just me
And trust me I'll give it a chance now
Take my hand, stop, put Van the Man on the jukebox
And then we start to dance, and I'm singing like

Girl, you know I want your love
Your love was handmade for somebody like me
Come on now, follow my lead
I may be crazy, don't mind me
Say, boy, let's not talk too much
Grab on my waist and put that body on me
Come on now, follow my lead
Come, come on now, follow my lead, mm-mm

I'm in love with the shape of you
We push and pull like a magnet do
Although my heart is falling too
I'm in love with your body
And last night you were in my room
And now my bedsheets smell like you
Every day discovering something brand new
I'm in love with of...
Oh I, oh I, oh I, oh I
I'm in love with your body

One week in we let the story begin
We're going out on our first date
You and me are thrifty, so go all you can eat
Fill up your bag and I fill up a plate
We talk for hours and hours about the sweet and the sour
And how your family is doing okay
Leave and get in a taxi, then kiss in the backseat
Tell the driver make the radio play, and I'm singing like

I dont want no scrubs
them be the guys that get no love from me
Hanging out the passenger side
Of his best friends ride
Trying to holla at me

Come on, be my baby, come on
Come on, be my baby, come on
Come on, be my baby, come on
Come on, be my baby, come on
Come on, be my baby, come on
Come on, be my baby, come on

I'm in love with the shape of you
We push and pull like a magnet do
Although my heart is falling too
I'm in love with your body
Last night you were in my room
And now my bedsheets smell like you
Every day discovering something brand new
I'm in love with the shape of you

This week I've listened to several covers of Ed's songs and I love this great artist!

Excellent what you do with the guitar, the voice and the natural way you sing! Love your presentation, keep that in mind.

It seems to me that your tone was a little low and if not please excuse me!!!

Blessings, it was a pleasure to listen to you!!!

Yeah I think maybe the tone could be higher. I normally play this on the 7th fret, this time its played on the 6th fret. My guitar is down tuned to a D standard tuning so I guess I got kinda confused. I was switching between singing songs on what is now the 8th and 9th fret as the D tuning is 2 frets down from standard. I didnt even notice it until the video was already uploaded so I guess it felt comfortable enough that I just went with it.

Anyways I had fun with this one and I am happy with the take I got ,Im glad you enjoyed it and thanks so much for taking the time to comment :).

What you did was very, very good!!!! So congratulations again! It's a pleasure that you can show your talent here!!!!

A hug

Aww wow your so sweet :) you make me feel humble and I am blushing ... hugs back to you! :)

Yoo pal, this is a good entry from you and I of course wish you great success in this entry of yours!
See you at the top man!

Greetings, my friend, today you interpret us again with your characteristic joy. How nice to hear you again in this Hive Music Festival. Just a note, remember that your post must be at least 300 characters long. This should not include the lyrics of the song. There's still time to edit, my friend.

Let me know, when you do it 🙏

Ah I see I didn't realise the song lyrics were not part of the word count hold on let me see how many words it is without the lyrics.

Its 97 words without the lyrics. Im heading out for a birthday meal right now and its unlikely I have time to add 203 words. I dont feel like I have that much more to say about the song really . I just went for it and had fun recording it .I guess the 300 word counts to much for me bro ,Im really not good at creative writing like that.
