Hello there, it’s so good to have you stop by to see what I have prepared for this week! I’m always so happy when I’m at this stage of making a write up for vibes web3 music competition because it means I made it through, hehe. So this week is a special week and it’s week 20 and it happens to be one of the longest week we’ve had and that is due to the just concluded Hivefest. Too bad I wasn’t able to follow up with it this year but I know for sure that it must have been a fun filled event and also an eye opener as well.
So based on the reason for this extension, I thought that I needed to present something that relates to it in a way and the song that came to me at that moment was Memories By Maroon 5. This song was a very huge hit the year it was released because it is a song that almost anyone can relate with. Memories tells us of the connections we’ve had with people and the ones we’ve lost especially due to the death of a loved one. Over the years we’ve built a lot of meaningful relationships and in this same years we’ve as well lost some of them.
Sometimes when we engage in some activities we’ve done before with these people we’ve lost, it’s almost impossible for us not to recall the memories we’ve shared together. We tend to remember the good and the bad times and sometimes we even wish we can have the bad times again as long as we get to see them again. This song is a simple but complex song in between, I hope that as you listen to it you take out some time to appreciate those relationships you’ve built that are still very much alive and those ones you’ve lost.
I believe that the Hivefest has been one great place for so many Hivers to meet off Hive and they must have made a lot of memories that they will cherish for a really long time. I know how sad it must have been if one special person couldn’t make it for the event, doing some stuffs there would definitely trigger the memories of them! So even as we keep having more hivefests, I hope that we continue to make as much memories as possible because no one knows what’s coming.
A big shout out the Vibes organizers who also happens to be an active part of making #Hivefest2024 a reality. I pray God bless you all for the amazing work you are putting in to make vibes a place for as many musicians out there, personally I’m grateful and proud to be a member of this community and I hope to keep giving my best.
Here is a link to the full lyrics of the song on Genus
Here's to the ones that we got
Cheers to the wish you were here, but you're not
'Cause the drinks bring back all the memories
Of everything we've been through
Toast to the ones here today
Toast to the ones that we lost on the way
'Cause the drinks bring back all the memories
And the memories bring back, memories bring back you
There's a time that I remember, when I did not know no pain
When I believed in forever, and everything would stay the same
Now my heart feel like December when somebody say your name
'Cause I can't reach out to call you, but I know I will one day, yeah
Everybody hurts sometimes
Everybody hurts someday, ayy ayy
But everything gon' be alright
Go and raise a glass and say, ayy
Here's to the ones that we got
Cheers to the wish you were here, but you're not
'Cause the drinks bring back all the memories
Of everything we've been through
Toast to the ones here today
Toast to the ones that we lost on the way
'Cause the drinks bring back all the memories
And the memories bring back, memories bring back you
Doo doo, doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Memories bring back, memories bring back you
Thank you so much for stopping by ❤️.

Loved your 'Memories' cover! Relatable choice, especially after Hivefest.
Appreciating relationships and cherishing memories is so important.
Thanks for sharing! Good luck in Vibes Web3 Music Competition!

This voice, you are making me emotional 😌
Aww, thank you Mike 🌹

This song was on repeat for a long time. Maroon 5 used to be one of my favorites, I don’t know why I stopped listening to him.
As usual, nice cover, Hopey.🌹
Yeah, I guess it was so for some of us. I knew I loved his songs but for some reason I wasn’t listening to it anymore.
I’m glad you enjoyed listening to it Fave, thank you for stopping by 🌹❤️

Ikr😂😂
You're welcome 🤗
Nice singing Hopestylist. I love how you sang the song and it's nice to see you connect it to the Hive Fest which happened at Split Croatia, so much to spring out from the Hivefest with thousands of newbies getting on board.
Such an event is necessary, it brings people together and the organizers and contributors did a great job.
Hopefully, by God's grace, we will someday attend the Hive Fest.
It's good to see and listen to you sing again, I'm not sure if I must have missed your previous Vibes entries or maybe you missed some weeks, but I'm glad to listen to this one and it surely brought some memories.
Happy weekend dear. 🧡
This totally brought a smile on my face just reading through, hehe.
Well, I’ve never missed an entry to the competition but I’m mostly late, lol. I’m glad you enjoyed listening to this one, I hope you’d enjoy the future ones too 🥰.
Thank you for gracing my post with your comment 🥰
Awwn 🥹 you have a very beautiful voice, keep up the good work namesake.
