Forget Me (cover) || Hive Open Mic [wk-166]
One relatable feeling is that of losing someone you once called "my everything," and they too did the same for you. Moving on can be challenging, and forgetting the person can be the most impossible thing. Notwithstanding, there may be some lingering feeling of still wanting that person, or that same old feeling you both once shared—or maybe not.
For Hive Open Mic's theme this week, Never Give Up, I bring this song to you: Forget Me by Lewis Capaldi. It's been several months since I came up here, and it feels good to do this again. Hopefully, you enjoy this one. I know I did.
Days ache and nights are long
Two years and still you’re not gone
Guess I’m still holding on
Drag my name through the dirt
Somehow it doesn’t hurt though
Guess you’re still holding on
You told your friends you want me dead
And said that I did everything wrong
And you’re not wrong
Well, I’ll take all the vitriol
But not the thought of you moving on
‘Cause I’m not ready
To find out you know how to forget me
I’d rather hear how much you regret me
And pray to God that you never met me
Than forget me
I hate to know I made you cry
But love to know I cross your mind, babe, oh I
Even aftеr all it’d still wreck me
To find out you’d know how to forget mе
Even after all this time
Days ache and nights are grey
My heart is still your place, babe
Guess I still feel the same
Know you can’t stand my face
Some scars you can’t erase, babe
Guess you still feel the same
Well, I’ll take all the vitriol
But not the thought of you moving on
‘Cause I’m not ready
To find out you know how to forget me
I’d rather hear how much you regret me
And pray to God that you never met me
Than forget me

The song is an emotional song for me, too. I have been listening to it too much, and so I couldn't help but sing my own cover.
The playing and singing together isn't exactly easy, but I have been doing it for years and am now used to it. I am glad you appreciate it, Sweet Nkem.
Na you dey ginger me like this. Hopefully, I will be releasing more and more in the future. Maybe I will sing my own original songs too.
Thank you always, and Happy Sunday!
Hahaha 😂😂😂
Ginger that jay for more yummy songs oo 😂
Oya..I am expecting another one next week
Thank you for having me around.
The low notes sounded so clean; I love our vocal style.
Just as Nkem said, you've got a great skill in being able to play and sing.
You interpreted the theme so well that it resonates with me. Keep singing and keep being amazing.
I know the song, and you performed it so well. Well done.
Thank you very much, Jessy. I'm glad you came around.
I hope I'll keep making more in the future. I do enjoy doing it after all.

All the success to you! don't stop!!!😍
These are very kind and encouraging words to hear from you. I appreciate them.
Truth be told, I often feel shy and underqualified, and so words like these go a long way. Thank you!
And yes, no stopping!!!

FemiJay blessing us with his melodious voice 🔥. Is this a call for help? Has she forgotten you, should she forget you or both?😂
😭😭😂😂
Which call for help??😂
Nobody is fogetting anybody here oh, I just dey sing song wey sweet me.
I missed one and won't miss this one! Iconic return of the Benjay with your favorite sad songs 🤧😂. It's really nice to have you back here 🤗🤗.
It's even harder when you see the little things you both regarded as special or vocabulary you reserved for each other. Sad truth is we gotta move on still.
I haven't heard this particular song but I'm sure going to check it out. I don't think I need to gush on about how much I enjoy listening to you sing. This is cooool @olujay, well done! 🤗❤❤
Yes, you missed the last one. I get that you have been busy, dear.
Better get used to it..🤣
My sister, breatfast is nobody's mate. We still have to move on anyway.
The original is way faster and has drums. I don't have energy and drums, so the slow version it is...😂
Thank you for always coming around, Gladyyy
Hmmm
Wow I'm so much amazed and impressed
The voice, the instrumenting are just so perfect
My boss it's like you will teach me music oh coz u na big man for music base on my observation
Haha...I appreciate your kind words, man.
I have been for a long while, actually. But I started as a beginner, too.
Get a guitar, that's for sure, and the learning can be much easier.
