Hi, friends/Hola amigos,

It feels so nice to be back here this new week for another awesome round of listening to my music family here and having my ears filled with good music. In short, I am always blessed every week listening to music from all over the world.

For this week's theme "Automatic Guitar" given by my good friend @alejandrorigo, who is an amazing guitarist, singer and songwriter. This week's theme is centered around promoting peace through music.

I decided to sing this beautiful and popular song "WE ARE THE WORLD BY MICHAEL JACKSON." This song was performed by All-star singers called "USA FOR AFRICA". This beautiful song emphasizes more on the need for peace among us. It describes us as a part of God's big family making it more reason why we must come together as one, in unity and with one voice.

It boldly expresses the truth that LOVE is all we need to save our lives.

I grew up listening to this song and it always serves as a constant reminder to show love no matter what and ensure peace coexists in my society.

For this song, I sang with my acoustic guitar on the key of C before modulating to key D almost at the end part. I also recorded a part of my singing as a backup while adding little harmony to the song.

I hope you enjoy my guitar cover of this wonder. Cheers🥂

LYRICS

There comes a time when we heed a certain call
When the world must come together as one
There are people dying
And it's time to lend a hand to life
The greatest gift of all

We can't go on pretending day by day
That someone somewhere will soon make a change
We're all a part of God's great big family
And the truth, you know
Love is all we need

We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So, let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just you and me

Send them your heart so they'll know that someone cares
And their lives will be stronger and free
As God has shown us by turning stone to bread
And so we all must lend a helping hand

We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So, let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just you and me

When you're down and out
There seems no hope at all
But if you just believe
There's no way we can fall
Well, well, well
Let's realize that a change can only come
When we stand together as one

We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So, let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just you and me
