STEEMIT OPEN MIC WEEK 80 - Like A Stone by The Hinds Brothers (Original Song)

gonetroppo (54) in openmic • 7 years ago (edited)

From a windy Tanglewood Forest in Ramsgate, South Africa, we recorded this original song as an exclusive performance for Steemit Open Mic Week #80.

This is also the last time we'll be able to record together for a while because brother @wrenbird has flown off to Cape Town for a couple months...

Sorry about the windy sounds, but they do add a kind of atmosphere.

Like a Stone

Always hoped to get away
Always hoped to find the day
It didn’t matter what they’d say
Now the dream has blown away

Even in the darkest night
Even in the darkest night
Hope was there we held on tight
I went down without a fight

Now it feels like, we can’t get home
No we’re feeling all alone
But there’s someone who can open our hearts
My heart is like a stone

We’re on the darkest lonely road
We’re on the darkest lonely road
Theres no peace here thers only hope
Blinded by dreams

Now it feels like we can’t get home
No we’re feeling all alone
But there’s someone who can open our hearts
My heart is like a stone

Hope you good folk enjoy and please upvote and share the love!

You guys are awesome I'm so happy to have you on STEEM!

Much love man so nice to see you playing in the circle.

For those who don't know, they're sitting in a natural phenomenon we only know as the 'resonance circle', this is in a place called tanglewood.

If you stand in the resonance circle it creates this type of phase shift sound when you speak, in open air. It's incredible.

The resonance circle nused my own and many other peoples singing voice into sharing what it has to offer. Thank you so much for sharing this.

I cried a crocodile tear.

ॐ we are one ॐ

I love the setting - hurricane Irma broke most of my favorite live oak trees, and there is no replacing them (not for a few decades, anyhow). I made some good chainsaw dollars at least, and plenty more still left to do if I run out of musical ambition. Great harmonies - you guys sound great together.
