Last time without my singing partner?

I hope so! He's been working like crazy and when he gets home, I'm working. Lol But he's 100% feeling better! So we can try to start working on songs this weekend 🥰️️

It's been pretty fun to get requests from people! We have three requests so far! Hahaha hope that we can do justice to them when we learn them! Griff is already super excited to get started learning the guitar for them!

This week I was excited to see that the theme is PROMISES! I had a song I've been loving lately! It's a beautiful song...another sad one! Sorry hahaha I love sad songs 😍

This one is by Gracie Abrams- if you don't know her, definitely give a listen on her YouTube channel Gracie Abrams. Her voice is just deliciously pained and savagely tender. You'll find yourself stuck on her channel for at least 30 minutes, devouring her melodies!

I've been having too much fun with making videos! 😂

his video was inspired by one of Gracie's videos - a different song. If anyone can drop a correct guess in the comment section of which of her videos inspired this one - I'll award you 5 Hive! Hehehe

So good luck!
Hope you enjoy! And Griff and I will be back together very soon ❤️❤️❤️

Wow well done! I can't believe you did an entire music video for the song :)
Very well sung too! Cheers!

hahahahahaha i was doing it for like - all of my entries LOLOLOLOL

I started to get embarrassed cuz no one else was doing music videos hahahaha

but @cabelindsay made me feel great about it! He said he loved that I went all out! hehehehe

so i kept doing it

and i keep telling him i'll be back soon!!! :) my son and I will be doing a song this week - i'm sure of it hehehehehe

oh now I have to show you one with me and him... please indulge me hehehehe

that's me and my son - our first entry I think into hive open mic! hehehehe

Wowzer!!
And I loved your visual with the video

Thank you!!! I had SO much fun with this one.
I wish I had a better app to create these kinds of videos though. I use vivavideo -and I love it - but it doesn't allow for like... layers of videos.

so it was all timed perfectly when I finished- and then i rendered - and now i can see that the sync is off with audio and video in parts. and i'm like ughhhhhhhhh

my daughter showed me one... i totally forget the name of it now - but I gave up fast because it wasn't intuitive enough for me.

do you have any apps that you know of - where you can overlap videos and sound and kinda.. have more control there?

Mine allows me to have layers of effects and text and overlays and themes.. all that. and manipulate THOSE layers. But i can't figure out a way how to drop a video onto another layer! which makes NO sense to me hahahaha..

hmmm maybe i should try to look one more time. LOL but - anyway! you do videos! do you have any apps you totally love for stuff like this???

I get it - I had the same problem with iMovie - loved so many things about it and still do - bits the current editor doesn't have but it only had one track

Still the video had feels :D

hahahahahaa well - it needs the feels.

My daughter showed me some app - but my gosh. it was like learning a new language

I lasted 15 minutes before i tossed it off my phone hahahahahahahahaha

When I was looking the number one suggestion was Filmora
But I found it a bit complicated
I like Movavi - it is simple and I need simple in my life as I'm all out of complicated which is solely dedicated to crypto hahaha

Movavi - ok!!!
I'll check out
and i'll take a peek at Filmora (you know... before I run away, screaming in terror. hahahaha)

I kept waiting until YOU started singing :D
I then realized it WAS you singing.

BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!! is all I can say!

hahahahahahahaa did you think I was singing with background vocals??? LOLOLOL

no - the music is just piano hahahahaha the rest is me LOL

but in order to make the video - my mouth doesn't always line up to the music that I recorded before - you know?? gahhhh I need a new app that does this better hahahahaa

Viva Video is what I've been using - but I think I need something with a bit more versatility. any suggestions???

i need to be able to layer videos. Viva Video lets me layer everything else - but not one video on top of others.. which seems SO weird to me!!!

and thank you!!! and i just left a MONSTER comment on your youtube video from yesterday. oh... hmmm maybe I should have left it on hive. hahaha

oh well - doesn't matter - as long as it gets to YOU. lol

Lovely, I am glad I checked this one out. Lovely voice and video too.

Thank you! I did one last week - a song from the perspective of a lighthouse. It's one of my favorites and I've been totally enjoying creating these videos. What a fun outlet that I didn't realize I'd love (and need) hahahaha

Oh wow, that's a clever way to present your live music performance, resembling a music video. Looks really beautiful. Sounds beautiful too.

Thank you for joining in and enjoying Hive Open Mic

you know what! now that you say that hahahaha I was wondering - is it still considered "live" if I record it and then do the video???

Should I only be taping myself singing without the video stuff??? hahahaha I don't want to go against the guidelines of the community - so just let me know what's best to do for the future! hahahaha

but thank you for the compliment - i really am enjoying this so much!

You're totally welcomed to visualize the music in any way you see fit. This is a real treat to see, as well as hear. I'm proud of you for stretching out, and grateful to you for making it such a pleasure to listen.

heheheh thank you so much!!!

My son and I are thinking of what to bring this week! We are excited that he's back and feeling ready to sing after his cold! hehehehe

I so appreciate your encouragement always!

Oh my heart! This is beautiful, @dreemsteem! Sad love songs are lovely and you sang this one perfectly!

I love Gracie Abrams songs and the background instrumentals.

I guess the song that inspired your video is I miss you, I am sorry by Gracie Abrams. 😊 Did I get it? Lol.

thank you EKG!!!! :) I really love her songs too! Isn't she just so natural and easy??? It's like she's just speaking softly to us - but in perfect pitch! hahahaha

and yes - you did get it right - but you got it right AFTER Cherry hehehehe she got it just one hour before you!!! hehehehe sorry!!! I'm sure I'll be finding ways to toss some more hive around LOLOL

thank you for coming to visit - I love you Emmy Kemmy Gumdrops (and is there a new dreemy in there??? I heard King give you a new name hahahah)

Great song, hadn't heard it before and you have a beautiful voice

Yes - i have recently found Gracie Abrams and I've just fallen in love with her voice! Thanks for coming to visit me :) and for the compliment!! :)

Excellent I liked it a lot, you are wonderful and your voice is beautiful and you are beautiful, excellent participation, I congratulate you and success for you

Thank you so much!!! I enjoyed this so much hehehe

-Hehehe Ma'am..what a video!! What a song ha!! Tender voice truly killing!! Hehe..like a gentle wind..you were like playing with your voice..and simply awesome!! Very good stress reliever na!!

This video was inspired by the video "I miss you, I'm sorry(Lyric video)?? Hehe..maybe!

I am getting addicted to music videos recently, and it has a very good effect on me..even those are sad songs but so beautiful!!

Have A great and blessed day!❤🌷

#dreemer

yep!!!! YOU GOT IT!!!!!!!
hehehehe I loved that she was kinda all over her room in that video - but so cute!!!! I tried to do that but she's much better at it hahahahahah

i'll get better too!

I'm so glad that you're enjoying these as much as me!!! hahahahah oh man - its just so much fun!!!! but it's time consuming too. hehehe I love sad songs too - they just wreck my heart in the best way :)

by the way - I just saw a DM from you and I had missed a question of yours somehow!!! So i'll jump in there and answer for you hehehehe

-Hehehhe Yes!!! Thanks a lot!!! I enjoyed the videos and got sleep and as I woke up my phone was still playing music videos..hehhe..Have a blessed Night!❤❤❤

Gracie Adams? Never heard of her till fee minutes ago but now, l've been able to watch about 6 videos on her channel and it's worth the effort. She has a very simple style of aligning her songs with the video itself. I like it.

You are also hitting it big in this community and it's all fun fun fun despite the fact that you've already given us more sad songs 😂 but it's all good.

It's not easy to know the exact video of Gracie that inspired your video but l will go for Mean It 😂 for reasons unknown to me 😂😂

hehehe yes I recently discovered her too - and i'm not sure where I first heard her????

but i love her! love her love her love her! :)

ahhhhh you guessed wrong - it was "I miss you, I'm sorry" (the song) hehehehe

Kemmy got it right - but she got it right after Cherry! LOL

she was one hour later hehehehe

and yes - I've been having a great time here - and its been a nice balance for my creative side to step away from data data data :) but now i'm ready to return today. had a good sleep and its back to work now hehehehe

love you King! :)
was thinking of you today. very appreciative of you. i know i say it a lot - but i am :)

ahhhhh you guessed wrong

Auuuchhhh.... How did I miss that? 😂😂😂.

You gave another nice performance. Gracie has nice songs to her name and l'm glad that you introduced her to us. Now, all l have to do is to see the next song our Chancellor has for us.

And then, it will even be more thrilling because it seems like BBQ will be joining the parry. I look forward to that.

Good to know that you took some time of to rest your head. That's a very important thing so that you will be giving us your 111% 😂
