Wait a minute!

You might want to know that this is my first time entering for Hive Open Mic show.

I thought I should announce that before you watch the video and that is if you haven't watched it already 😒 just please be constructive with any criticism 😂 I'll accept all of it!

I can't count the number of times I had to redo the video until I got this one, you don't want to imagine how the other videos were before this 😂 I almost cried. Well, that's needed for the theme of this week, isn't it?

I want to specially thank the person behind this week's theme "Love Hurts" and that is no other person than @khaleesii who has been pressuring me to start making videos on Hive since I had been parading that I can sing 😆 well, the deed has been done and I hope I get encouraged enough to make another.

This week's theme "Love Hurts" actually reminded me of a movie I once saw some time ago and how much I loved the movie. The movie titled "Lovestruck" show more about how much some people wishes to feel loved again and how hurtful it can be to see the one you love cheat on you.

The song "How can I remember to forget?" was sang by the lead actress (Sara Paxton) who was about getting married but caught her to be husband cheating on her... Well, she found out later that she saw wrongly.

That aside, she sang a very touching song and I thought I should do a cover of it for this week's theme. Do have a watch and let me know what you think and how you would want me to improve... It's my first time!!!

Special thanks to my sister for the background encouragement and to all the great singers I've been spying on to learn one or two from, you all are amazing... I think we should have a "Hive Musical Industry" offline for you all... Music world will surely feel a huge difference with it, what do you think? 😂

Don't mind me, back to my entry for the week... Go and watch and take the *thanks for watching" after that hehe

I'll be happy to read your comments and reply accordingly...


Song Lyrics

So I guess it's over, there's nothing left to say
Take the ring off my finger and just call it a day
Thought we had forever, but that was yesterday
You're such a liar, wish I saw it on your face

But you did it so well
Can somebody just tell me how...?

How can I remember to forget?
When my heart just won't let me
Make myself un-love you, tell me that it's not true
I know all the reasons, I just can't believe them
And pretend we never met
How can I remember to forget?

Wish that I could hate you, so I could
Let you go. Wish I never met
The one I want the most
I could fill an ocean, with all the tears I've cried
Tell me you were joking, just a dream I had last night

But I'm wide awake and
I want you so much right now

How can I remember to forget
These emotions and all the plans we made?
Like we never happened, make my heart un-break
I know we're clearly over but I just don't know how
How can I remember to forget?
When my heart just won't let me
Make myself un-love you, tell me that it's not true
I know all the reasons, I just can't believe them
And pretend we never met
How can I remember to forget?
Forget
Oh
Oh

I really enjoyed the performance. You did it without any backgroud instrumentals and it sounded so nice. If I sang without background instrumentals, it would be a horrible performance 😂😂😂. Nice performance @merit.ahama

Eii...people have talent in this life o.

"Crisp," is the word I would use to describe your voice. It is so clean and bright, yet soft. So people can sing on this Hive like this? Wow, Merit, your voice is beautiful.

I can't count the number of times I had to redo the video until I got this one, you don't want to imagine how the other videos were before this 😂 I almost cried

I am still laughing at this o...😂😂
You would have been like "this one is not sweet," or "I totally flopped this one" many times.

I do not remember the song, but I am sure I have heard it very well. You nailed your first entry. And your sister would have been like, "Merit, your voice very sweet, try one theme and make your entry."

I am glad you did not give up and finally made it. Thank you for sharing, and blessing us.
