Steemit Open Mic Week # 82 // Perfect by Ed Sheeran (Piano Cover)

in openmic •  7 years ago  (edited)


Hi Friends!

I am so excited because I joined Open Mic back in week 52, and have not missed a single week since! This means that I'm on my 30th entry. Man, how time flies. I'm so grateful to be part of this incredible and supportive group of musicians. Thanks @luzcypher for giving people a place get over their fears, share their talents and find community.

This week I am singing "Perfect" by Ed Sheeran. He is one of my favorite artists and I'm so excited because I get to see him in Seattle in August!

One more small victory from this week is that I finally bought a mic stand with an extendable arm for my piano covers. Getting the mic close enough to make a good recording has been a struggle for a long time. This thing was only like $20 bucks... I'm not sure why I put it off so long! I'm really happy with how the recording sounds compared to my regular piano covers.

Without further ado... here are the lyrics:


I found a love for me
Darling just dive right in
And follow my lead
Well I found a girl beautiful and sweet
I never knew you were the someone waiting for me
'Cause we were just kids when we fell in love
Not knowing what it was
I will not give you up this time
But darling, just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own
And in your eyes you're holding mine
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath
But you heard it, darling, you look perfect tonight
Well I found a woman, stronger than anyone I know
She shares my dreams, I hope that someday I'll share her home
I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets
To carry love, to carry children of our own
We are still kids, but we're so in love
Fighting against all odds
I know we'll be alright this time
Darling, just hold my hand
Be my girl, I'll be your man
I see my future in your eyes
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
When I saw you in that dress, looking so beautiful
I don't deserve this, darling, you look perfect tonight

Great work once again! xoxo

Aww thanks Chris! ❤️

Congrats on 30 weeks on open mic. You definitely have a country sort of vide to your voice. Keep steeming on!

Ooh I can see that! I don’t sing a lot of country songs but maybe I should do more country covers!

I love this song so much! And you really nailed it. Always a pleasure listening to you.

Aww thanks @raci! I’m glad you enjoyed it!

Ps... I hope you are doing well! Sorry it has been so long since I popped over to your page. 😊

It's always nice to hear from you :) I am doing great, hope you too?

I’m doing great! Life is rocking and rolling these days. Thanks for asking. 😊

No wonder it is, you rock 😊

Awwwww you sing beautifully my friend. You’re an awesome singer, you know I used to participate in the open mic but as I don’t have any musical instruments to play as the rule says I had to give up which wasn’t a happy decision. I’m a singer and a beginner, following your blog will definitely get me to learn a lot. I have my works on my blog if you have the time , you might check them out. I recorded all songs on my phone and your post about the sound shield earlier today is a big hint. You’ve got an angelic voice

Aww thank you so much! I was really sad to see that open mic rule change too. 😞 Even though it didn’t affect me because I play a couple instruments... I know there are a lot of great singers who don’t play an instrument and so it didn’t seem fair. I think they were getting overloaded with spam entries and did that as a response.

Thanks again for listening! ❤️

@coruscate the part "darling just kiss me slow " i loved this part .just said beautiful.

Aww I’m glad you enjoyed that moment! Thanks for listening. 😊

that was so pretty ♥ 30 open mics in a row.. wow.. i've only done 3 , and out of any rows.. ha ha. i wanna be like YOU now! I think i'll try to do one every week, too. Part of my problem in life is no follow through. How do you motivate yourself to do it every single week?

This song is extremely beautiful. Whenever I hear it, I think of someone. Thanks for such a nice version. You have a great talent

@curuscate I would like you to sing this song -

This song of Ed Sheeran to me is peak of emotional Vomit. But at least you are performing it quite nice

I'm really impressed with it. I hope you get something better in front of me. Go ahead, good luck.
