Hello everybody on Hive and especially the Hive Open Mic Community! My name is Jasper and I'm writing (and singing) to you from Cape Town in South Africa! Welcome to Week 153 of the Hive Open Mic Challenge. The theme for the week is “You are With Me”!

The theme makes me think of a love-song. I am taking part in Three Tune Tuesday (an initiative by @ablaze) every Tuesday, and yesterday I decided to cover three Bob Dylan songs. Now obviously, Bob Dylan is one of the most prolific songwriters in the world, and it was hard to choose only three!

One of the ones I was very sad about leaving out yesterday was “Make You Feel My Love”, which Bob Dylan released in 1997 on his album “Time Out of Mind”. According to Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Make_You_Feel_My_Love) the song has become a standard, with all sorts of famous people covering it from Michael Buble to more recently, Adele. In fact, apparently Phil Collins managed to cover it and then release it about a month before Bob’s version!!

Listen to the song, and perhaps you can see why people love to cover it? It is beautiful and very nice to sing! Here’s the Bob Dylan version. Do you have a favourite cover version by a famous artist?

By the way, I am doing a weekly post on Thursdays where I ask for cover song requests in the comments, and then if I attempt your song in the following week's post, you become a beneficiary to 50% of the post's rewards in HP! Please check those out and think of song requests for me?

Lyrics for "Make You Feel My Love" by Bob Dylan

When the rain is blowing in your face
And the whole world is on your case
I could offer you a warm embrace
To make you feel my love

When the evening shadows and the stars appear
And there is no one there to dry your tears
I could hold you for a million years
To make you feel my love

I know you haven’t made your mind up yet
But I would never do you wrong
I’ve known it from the moment that we met
No doubt in my mind where you belong

I’d go hungry, I’d go black and blue
I’d go crawling down the avenue
There’s nothing that I wouldn’t do
To make you feel my love

The storms are raging on the rollin’ sea
And on the highway of regret
Put your hand in mine and come with me
I’ll see that you don’t get wet

I could make you happy, make your dreams come true
Nothing that I wouldn’t do
Go to the ends of the earth for you
To make you feel my love

¡Hola a todos en Hive y especialmente a la comunidad Hive Open Mic! ¡Mi nombre es Jasper y les escribo (y canto) desde Ciudad del Cabo en Sudáfrica! Bienvenidos a la semana 153 del Hive Open Mic Challenge. ¡El tema de la semana es “Tú estás conmigo”!

El tema me hace pensar en una canción de amor. Participo en Three Tune Tuesday (una iniciativa de @ablaze) todos los martes, y ayer decidí hacer un cover de tres canciones de Bob Dylan. Ahora, obviamente, Bob Dylan es uno de los compositores más prolíficos del mundo, ¡y fue difícil elegir solo tres!

Uno de los que me entristeció mucho dejar fuera ayer fue “Make You Feel My Love”, que Bob Dylan lanzó en 1997 en su disco “Time Out of Mind”. Según Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Make_You_Feel_My_Love), la canción se ha convertido en un estándar, con todo tipo de personas famosas que la versionan, desde Michael Bublé hasta, más recientemente, Adele. De hecho, ¡aparentemente Phil Collins logró cubrirlo y luego lanzarlo aproximadamente un mes antes que la versión de Bob!

Escuche la canción, y tal vez pueda ver por qué a la gente le encanta versionarla. Es hermoso y muy agradable de cantar! Aquí está la versión de Bob Dylan. ¿Tienes una versión de portada favorita de un artista famoso?

Por cierto, estoy haciendo una publicación semanal los jueves donde pido solicitudes de versiones de canciones en los comentarios, y luego, si intento tu canción en la publicación de la semana siguiente, ¡te conviertes en beneficiario del 50% de las recompensas de la publicación en HP! Por favor, échales un vistazo y piensa en solicitudes de canciones para mí.

Letra de "Make You Feel My Love" de Bob Dylan

Cuando la lluvia sopla en tu cara
Y el mundo entero está en tu caso
Podría ofrecerte un cálido abrazo.
Para hacerte sentir mi amor

Cuando aparecen las sombras de la tarde y las estrellas
Y no hay nadie allí para secar tus lágrimas
Podría abrazarte por un millón de años
Para hacerte sentir mi amor

Sé que aún no te has decidido
Pero nunca te haría mal
Lo supe desde el momento en que nos conocimos
Sin duda en mi mente a donde perteneces

Pasaría hambre, me volvería negro y azul
iría gateando por la avenida
No hay nada que yo no haría
Para hacerte sentir mi amor

Las tormentas están rugiendo en el mar rodante
Y en la carretera del arrepentimiento
Pon tu mano en la mía y ven conmigo
Me encargaré de que no te mojes

Podría hacerte feliz, hacer tus sueños realidad
Nada que yo no haría
Ir hasta los confines de la tierra por ti
Para hacerte sentir mi amor

Love your version and it makes me want to revisit it.
Great choice for the week indeed! 👌

I was actually surprised to see that this was released 35 years after Bob Dylan started releasing music... I guess I've always assumed it was more "classic" Bob because it's so good... and I'm too young to remember any differently! Hahahaha! Yeah my father had a lot of Bob Dylan albums and I guess I didn't know the 60s from the 90s growing up!
