Exploring 3 Unique Versions of a Timeless Hymn For TTT
It's been one discovery to another for as long as I can remember since I started to want to live life differently and learn as much as I can while trying to apply some for my life to get better. One of the many sides of life I'm still learning is, understanding the power of music in helping to keep good sleeping and relaxing healthy habits.
I also want to use music to practice good use of English, there's a way I learnt I can do that but I'm yet to filter out songs that won't help me in these directions, I plan to do it eventually as it's important for me to if I really want to do things differently this year. So in my search for songs that uplifts, I crossed path with one lovely song.
I was preparing for Sunday service to start when the song was played as we waited for others to join in before service commences. My mind felt happy as it flashed back to the other times I've heard the song when I thought the song was so beautiful to listen to. The first time ever was from a little boy with a high pitched voice singing it.
The second time was a cover of the song here on Hive by a violinist that I really admire her strength and zeal for life. So that Sunday, I went on a search to listen to the song more and hopefully download the best sound from all the covers I'll come across. That went really well for me and the screenshot above proves it, I found few best.
So for #ttt this week, I'm choosing to review one song but from different artists and styles which I think brought different vibes to one song but kept the feeling same for the listeners. I'd really appreciate it if you'd watch them to confirm if what I think is true or I'm exaggerating for the purpose of writing lol... So here are the 3 sounds.
The song is titled "Oh Holy Night".
This cover by Mariah Carey was the first recommended to me by YouTube when I searched the name of the song and I've heard of her before so I listened to her cover and I love it, especially how she carried herself through the song. Even when it got high, she was comfortably hitting those notes. I love the visual setup too.
I was going to pick the cover by "Pentatonix" as my favourite even though it was the second one I listened to, but it's going to be mainly because I've always loved their acapella covers of songs that I enjoy listening to. This one was no different, I totally love the voices, the vibe, the high pitched bridge that they did brilliantly and their visuals too. It was lovely to listen to them.
Last but not the least, my favourite which I had to download for more listens, is the cover by "Genavieve Linkowski". It's actually surprising that I couldn't stop listening to this one even when she didn't do anything dramatic or have the visuals like the others, I just loved and enjoyed listening to her. I also think it started before now.
So tell me, did you listen to all three? Which of them would you rate higher for a cover of a hymn song? Yeah, the song is from a hymn. It's so cool!

Greetings @merit.ahama , and have a blessed day.
I, too, am convinced that music and its vibrations have healing properties; the method you’re using to create or maintain good habits is a great idea.
I hadn’t heard this song before; the Mariah Carey video is lovely. It sounds beautiful.
Thank you @soyunasantacruz i appreciate you stopping by and yeah Maria's cover is really lovely.
