Recorded in Ocean Beach, in sunny southern California, here is my entry for Steemit Open Mic Week 88!
It's a cover of Neil Young's "Harvest Moon".
Happy listening!
(Lyrics)
Come a little bit closer
Hear what I have to say
Just like children sleeping
We could dream this night away
But there's a full moon rising
Let's go dancing in the light
We know where the music's playing
Let's go out and feel the night
Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon
When we were strangers
I watched you from afar
When we were lovers
I loved you with all my heart
But now it's getting late
And the moon is climbing high
I want to celebrate
See it shining in your eye
Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon
Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon

Wow, you got attention because you picked one of my favorite songs to cover...
Then you won me over with your beautiful version and lovely voice. Excellent!
Good luck in the open mic!
Aw thanks so much @junkfeathers! I'm glad you liked it! 😊
Blasphemer! *laughs, jests. You posted your heartwarming performance of Neil Young’s hallowed Harvest Moon song mere days after it was the full Flower Moon!
It's cosmic coincidence hehe. Too bad I missed it! I'm going to have to wait another year to see a flower moon again, dang it.
Fret not! For these are the days of the Flower Moon! The day of the full Flower Moon was on May 29th.
The Strawberry Moon begins on June 13th and is full on June 28th.
Hmmm strawberry moon could be the name of a song, I dig it. I'll keep an eye on the sky for these!
There is something sacred, or at least breathtaking, about looking out upon the celestial objects, isn’t there? Several years ago, one of mine eyes was able to peek through a neighbour’s telescope to gaze upon a snowy pole of Mars, the moons of Jupiter, along with the mountains and seas of the Earth’s moon.
I hope, though, to be looking at the ground as well during the upcoming month of the Strawberry Moon because that is going to be when strawberries are most in season, just like nowadays when the flowers in the fields and gardens are.
Will you look for my “Trembling Streams” sonnet with literary video that I posted a few days ago?
You are such a talented poet and musician. I wonder what your own sonnets might sound like, when sung, too.
That's really cool, I need to go to an observatory sometime. The closest thing I've done is watch the full solar eclipse while in the path of totality (in Oregon) last year. Truly breathtaking.
I just got some fresh picked strawberries from a farmer's market in San Diego, and my goodness, they were the best I've ever had. Better and sweeter than candy. I ate three cartons of them in two days haha.
Sure I'll go check out that post now!
Wow, I just found this reply of yours. What a fool I feel like for having missed it. I apologize for not having replied, sooner—'tis such a nice reply from you. I'm still learning about how Steemit functions.
I love strawberries, too—I haven't yet had any as delicious as yours, though! Blueberries—the wild ones—grow aplenty in Canada. They are so tiny in comparison to the conventional kind, but their sweetness is beyond measure, too.
The same way that those Strawberry Moonberries made a temporary strawberriholic out of you, the wild blueberries in Canada have at times made a blueberriholic out of me.
I was able to see that eclipse, too—but only for a minute—I had to borrow another person's eclipse eyeglasses to do so. Nonetheless, it was more than enough time for my body to have welled up with emotion. I probably would have become a tiny ocean of tears had I continued doing so.
I like watching vanlife, camping, RV and tiny house on wheels videos. One of those videos featured that solar eclipse from last year as seen from it path of totality, too. I love the idea of someday living full-time on the road, in part that I may view from within their paths of totality forthcoming lunar and solar eclipses.
I love the cactus and love you music cover . my vote and reesteem
