Hive Open Mic #128 - Grenade Cover by @merit.ahama (ENG /ESP)

Today's a good day for me as I finally was able to make an entry for this week's theme. I felt sad not being able to submit for the last theme because I was so busy with school work, it's almost final exams time and I won't mind having your wishes now.

I always tend to be in a good mood before I sing a song no matter what kind of song I plan to do. And today is that day I woke up happy and stress free, will be having some stress soon but until then, my entry first.

I had lots of songs in options though but this song fits better and I've been playing this song for sometime now, never even thought I'll be singing it for the community but I'm glad it got to sing it here.

Hoy es un buen día para mí, ya que finalmente pude hacer una entrada para el tema de esta semana. Me sentí triste por no poder presentarme para el último tema porque estaba muy ocupado con el trabajo escolar, es casi la hora de los exámenes finales y no me importaría tener sus deseos ahora.

Siempre tiendo a estar de buen humor antes de cantar una canción sin importar qué tipo de canción planee hacer. Y hoy es el día en que me desperté feliz y libre de estrés, pronto tendré algo de estrés, pero hasta entonces, mi entrada primero.

Sin embargo, tenía muchas canciones en opciones, pero esta canción encaja mejor y la he estado tocando durante algún tiempo, nunca pensé que la cantaría para la comunidad, pero me alegro de que la haya cantado aquí.

For this week's theme "Desamor" which means "Heartbreak" I decided to do a song by Bruno Mars titled "Grenade". Please note, this song makes a lot more sense coming from a guy but I've always loved the song and most especially the lyrics whenever it's being played and it suit this week's theme so well, I decided to go for it.

It's a song that shows how much love one is willing to give to their loved one but the so called loved one is not willing to do anything for them, really heartbreaking considering the lyrics. I laughed when I first listened to the lyrics of the song though... Who dies for another because of love? Only Jesus I know 😂 maybe you reading this too huh? Definitely not me! Haha.

I tried my best to sing it well enough and I hope it came out well for your listening, don't mind my hair 😂 I'll make a good one soon. I hope you enjoy my cover of the song, you can check out the lyrics too.

Para el tema de esta semana "Desamor" que significa "Heartbreak" decidí hacer una canción de Bruno Mars titulada "Grenade". Tenga en cuenta que esta canción tiene mucho más sentido viniendo de un chico, pero siempre me ha encantado la canción y, especialmente, la letra cada vez que se toca y se adapta tan bien al tema de esta semana que decidí hacerlo.

Es una canción que muestra cuánto amor está dispuesto a dar a su ser querido, pero el llamado ser querido no está dispuesto a hacer nada por ellos, realmente desgarrador teniendo en cuenta la letra. Sin embargo, me reí cuando escuché por primera vez la letra de la canción... ¿Quién muere por otro por amor? Solo Jesús lo sé 😂 tal vez tú también estés leyendo esto, ¿eh? ¡Definitivamente no soy yo! Ja ja.

Hice lo mejor que pude para cantarlo lo suficientemente bien y espero que haya salido bien para que lo escuchen, no se preocupen por mi cabello 😂 Haré uno bueno pronto. Espero que disfrutes mi versión de la canción, también puedes ver la letra.

Song Lyrics


Easy come, easy go
That's just how you live, oh
Take, take, take it all
But you never give
Should've known you was trouble
From the first kiss
Had your eyes wide open
Why were they open?

Gave you all I had
And you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, you did
To give me all your love is all I ever asked
'Cause what you don't understand is...

I'd catch a grenade for you (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Throw my hand on a blade for you (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'd jump in front of a train for you (yeah, yeah, yeah)
You know I'd do anything for you (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Oh, I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for you, baby
But you won't do the same

No, no, no, no

Black, black, black and blue
Beat me 'til I'm numb
Tell the devil I said "Hey" when you get back to where you're from
Mad woman, bad woman
That's just what you are
Yeah, you'll smile in my face then rip the brakes out my car

Gave you all I had
And you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, yes you did
To give me all your love is all I ever asked
'Cause what you don't understand is...

I'd catch a grenade for you (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Throw my hand on a blade for you (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'd jump in front of a train for you (yeah, yeah, yeah)
You know I'd do anything for you (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Oh, I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for you, baby
But you won't do the same

If my body was on fire
Oh, you'd watch me burn down in flames
You said you loved me, you're a liar
'Cause you never, ever, ever did, baby

But, darling, I'd still catch a grenade for you (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Throw my hand on a blade for you (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'd jump in front of a train for you (yeah, yeah, yeah)
You know I'd do anything for you (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Oh, I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for you, baby
But you won't do the same

No, you won't do the same
You wouldn't do the same
Oh, you'd never do the same
Oh, no no no, oh

Letras de canciones

Lo que fácil viene, fácil se va
Así es como vives, oh
Toma, toma, toma todo
Pero nunca das
Debería haber sabido que eras un problema
Desde el primer beso
Tenías los ojos bien abiertos
¿Por qué estaban abiertas?

Te di todo lo que tenía
Y lo tiraste a la basura
Lo tiraste a la basura, lo hiciste
Para darme todo tu amor es todo lo que he pedido
Porque lo que no entiendes es...

Cogería una granada por ti (sí, sí, sí)
Tirar mi mano sobre una cuchilla para ti (sí, sí, sí)
Saltaría frente a un tren por ti (sí, sí, sí)
Sabes que haría cualquier cosa por ti (sí, sí, sí)
Oh, pasaría por todo este dolor
Tome una bala directamente a través de mi cerebro
Sí, moriría por ti, bebé
Pero no harás lo mismo

No no no no

Negro, negro, negro y azul
Golpéame hasta que esté entumecido
Dile al diablo que dije "Oye" cuando regreses de donde eres
Mujer loca, mala mujer
Eso es justo lo que eres
Sí, me sonreirás en la cara y luego quitarás los frenos de mi auto

Te di todo lo que tenía
Y lo tiraste a la basura
Lo tiraste a la basura, sí lo hiciste
Para darme todo tu amor es todo lo que he pedido
Porque lo que no entiendes es...

Cogería una granada por ti (sí, sí, sí)
Tirar mi mano sobre una cuchilla para ti (sí, sí, sí)
Saltaría frente a un tren por ti (sí, sí, sí)
Sabes que haría cualquier cosa por ti (sí, sí, sí)
Oh, pasaría por todo este dolor
Tome una bala directamente a través de mi cerebro
Sí, moriría por ti, bebé
Pero no harás lo mismo

Si mi cuerpo estuviera en llamas
Oh, me verías arder en llamas
Dijiste que me amabas, eres un mentiroso
Porque nunca, nunca, nunca lo hiciste, cariño

Pero, cariño, todavía atraparía una granada por ti (sí, sí, sí)
Tirar mi mano sobre una cuchilla para ti (sí, sí, sí)
Saltaría frente a un tren por ti (sí, sí, sí)
Sabes que haría cualquier cosa por ti (sí, sí, sí)
Oh, pasaría por todo este dolor
Tome una bala directamente a través de mi cerebro
Sí, moriría por ti, bebé
Pero no harás lo mismo

No, no harás lo mismo
no harías lo mismo
Oh, nunca harías lo mismo
Ay, no, no, no, ay

I've loved this song even without knowing its lyrics or the reason for it. Listening to radio got me acquainted to it.

Talking about Heartbreak; it's totally for everyone 😄

This song was one of my top songs many years ago when it was first released. Amongst other of Bruno's songs, The Lazy Song and Grenade were my everyday songs.

I was much younger and I did not understand much of what love and sacrifice entailed, I just sang the lyrics without much thought to them. I even used them as hot pick up lines for girls of my age then; those days of 2go.😁

I totally love your voice, Merit. I mean, it's bright, and it is smooth at the same time. You also nailed the nailed the lyrics (I never really got them all right).

It does not matter that it was a guy that wrote the song. Love is a feeling that everyone feels, and sacrifice is something we have all considered. So, a lady can also want to jump in front of a train for a guy. That may be her ambition. As for me, nahhh... I no catch grenade for my self, let alone someone else.😂

Well done, Merit.
