HIVE OPEN MIC WEEK #237/ NO WOMAN, NO CRY BY BOB MARLEY/ COVERED BY SLEEMFIT✨. [ENG-ESP]

[sleemfit]

Hello Hive open mic community, how's everyone doing?. Welcome to week #237 of our weekly concert here on the Blockchain. In line with this week's theme "Long Live Women", I'd be performing a classic by Reggae legend Bob Marley called "No woman, No cry". This record was released in the year 1974 and still has significant meaning to date. It's a song I grew up listening to as I wasn't even born when it was released. The title "No woman, No cry" basically means Woman don't cry, the song is about the strength of women(mothers, girls). A strong woman that doesn't depend on man to be significant, something like a backbone. She's really strong like a lion, of course the man is there to help...as the saying goes "for every successful man, there's a good woman". And we men love our women solid and kind at the same time, we love independent women, we admire their courage and strength. We don't like to see them sad or struggle. This song has been misunderstood a lot to mean something like 'if there is no woman, there's no reason to cry', or having secret feelings towards women but it's really far from it. The lyrics of the song are highly personal to Marley as he gives reference to his neighbourhood, his city. In the song, Marley mentions the Government Yards of Trench Town, a public housing project in Kingston where he grew up. The lyrics also include references to cornmeal porridge, a popular breakfast in Jamaica. He pleads with women not to cry, for everything is gonna be alright. He sees the struggles, the pains, the loads the women have to carry and he urges them not to cry. Women are really special and beautiful, they deserve everything nice and good. Long live women 🙌.

I do hope you all enjoy 🎧 my cover of this classic, see you soon 🖤.

Hola comunidad de micrófono abierto de Hive, ¿cómo están todos? Bienvenidos a la semana n.° 237 de nuestro concierto semanal aquí en Blockchain. En línea con el tema de esta semana "Larga vida a las mujeres", interpretaré un clásico de la leyenda del reggae Bob Marley llamado "No woman, No cry". Este disco se lanzó en el año 1974 y todavía tiene un significado importante hasta la fecha. Es una canción con la que crecí escuchando porque ni siquiera había nacido cuando se lanzó. El título "No woman, No cry" básicamente significa "Mujer, no llores", la canción habla sobre la fuerza de las mujeres (madres, niñas). Una mujer fuerte que no depende del hombre para ser importante, algo así como una columna vertebral. Ella es realmente fuerte como un león, por supuesto, el hombre está allí para ayudar... como dice el dicho "por cada hombre exitoso, hay una buena mujer". Y nosotros los hombres amamos a nuestras mujeres sólidas y amables al mismo tiempo, amamos a las mujeres independientes, admiramos su coraje y fuerza. No nos gusta verlas tristes o luchar. Esta canción ha sido malinterpretada mucho y se la ha considerado como algo así como "si no hay mujeres, no hay razón para llorar" o tener sentimientos secretos hacia las mujeres, pero en realidad está muy lejos de eso. La letra de la canción es muy personal para Marley, ya que hace referencia a su barrio, a su ciudad. En la canción, Marley menciona los Government Yards de Trench Town, un proyecto de vivienda pública en Kingston donde creció. La letra también incluye referencias a las gachas de maíz, un desayuno popular en Jamaica. Les ruega a las mujeres que no lloren, porque todo va a estar bien. Ve las luchas, los dolores, las cargas que las mujeres tienen que soportar y las insta a no llorar. Las mujeres son realmente especiales y hermosas, se merecen todo lo bueno y agradable. Larga vida a las mujeres 🙌.

Espero que todos disfruten 🎧 mi versión de este clásico, nos vemos pronto 🖤.

Hello my guy @sleemfit and happy weekend! No Woman, No Cry is such a powerful choice for this week’s theme. You captured the true essence of Marley’s tribute to women—their resilience, strength, and unwavering spirit. This song, often misunderstood, really does show how Marley recognized women’s struggles and honored their ability to endure and uplift. I loved hearing about the personal references to his life in Trench Town, as they add so much depth to his message.

Thank you for bringing this timeless classic to our community. Your performance beautifully honors women as the strong, compassionate, and inspiring figures they are. Long live women, indeed!
