Hive Open Mic Week 188 - Waiting (Cover) by IndonesiaBersatu

Hello brothers and sisters, Greetings and blessings. My name is Zein Grind from @indonesiabersatu band, and today I am participating again in the weekly Hive Open Mic event which has entered its 188th week with the theme "Fly and Dream", which was chosen by this week's spotlight artist @yisusth. This is a very interesting theme.

Fly and Dream to me is an invitation to pursue dreams. Flying symbolizes the freedom to escape all limitations and achieve dreams. Dreams symbolize hopes and desires that want to be realized. By combining these two things, the phrase "fly and dream" can be interpreted as an invitation to pursue dreams, even though it may seem impossible.

As mere mortals, we must let go of all limitations and pursue our dreams. Dreams are things that we want to achieve in life. When we pursue our dreams, we will feel happy and satisfied because we are trying to realize something we want. When we achieve our dreams, we can make a positive impact on the world. Although pursuing our dreams is not always easy. We will face various challenges and obstacles. However, if we don't give up and keep trying, we will be able to achieve our dreams. So, don't be afraid to let go of any boundaries and pursue your dreams.

From this theme, I performed a cover song called Waiting by Green Day. This song was written by
Billie Joe Armstrong, a vocalist and guitarist in the band Green Day. The song was released in 2001 on the album Warning. This song can be an inspiration for anyone who is waiting for their chance. This song reminds me and all of us that we must believe in ourselves and never give up. We have to get up and grab our chance, no matter what.

Lyrics

I've been waitin' a long time
For this moment to come, I'm
Destined for anything at all

Downtown, lights will be shinin'
On me, like a new diamond ring out
Under the midnight hour

Well, no one can touch me now, well
And I can't turn my back, it's too late
Ready or not at all

Well, I'm so much closer than
I have ever known
Wake up!

Dawning of a new era calling
Don't let it catch ya falling
Ready or not at all

Oh, so close enough to taste it
Almost, I can embrace this feelin'
On the tip of my tongue

Well, I'm so much closer than
I have ever known
Wake up!

You better thank your lucky stars!
Say, hey, hey!

I've been waiting a lifetime
For this moment to come, I'm
Destined for anything at all

Dumbstruck, color me stupid
Good luck, you're gonna need it
Where I'm going, if I get there at all

Wake up!
You better thank your lucky stars!

Thank you so much for watching and listening to the cover song I performed for my participation in the weekly Hive Open Mic Week 188. I hope you all enjoyed it. In making this music video, I used FL Studio software to create Midi drum sounds, then I edited it in Adobe Audition software, while recording guitar and bass, as well as vocals, then I used Capcut to combine the video and audio. Thank you and greetings.
