    Hello everybody on HIVE, and especially the Music Community. My name is Jasper and I'm writing (and singing) to you from Cape Town, South Africa!

    I am into the 14th week of this challenging series of posts I have set myself for Thursdays! BUT I Need your Help to keep going please!

    This is the challenge I'm setting myself every Thursday: I ask for cover song requests on the MUSIC community, and then pick a favourite song to learn and post a live video of me attempting it. The person who asked for the winning song then gets 50% of the post rewards in HP! If I pick a second song, that person gets 20% of the post rewards in HP as well!

    You'll notice that I'm not in my normal place, and don't have my microphone or amp... I have gone up the coast to a small village by the sea to celebrate New Years... hopefully I manage to catch a few waves!

    This week's winner is @hellsveiah who asked me to do "I can't Dance" by Genesis, which was Phil Collin's band when he still had (some) hair! It has a bluesy feel to it so I tried to emphasise that!

    Here is the original:

    Lyrics for "I Can't Dance" by Genesis

    Hot sun beating down
    Burning my feet just walking around
    Hot sun makin' me sweat
    Gators getting close, hasn't got me yet
    I can't dance
    I can't talk
    Only thing about me is the way I walk
    I can't dance
    I can't sing
    I'm just standing here selling everything
    Blue jeans sittin' on the beach
    Her dog's talking to me, but she's out of reach
    Mhm, she's got a body under that shirt
    But all she wants to do is rub my face in the dirt
    'Cause I can't dance
    I can't talk
    Only thing about me is the way I walk
    I can't dance
    I can't sing
    I'm just standing here sellin'
    Oh and checking everything is in place
    You never know who's lookin' on
    Young punk spillin' beer on my shoes
    Fat guy's talkin' to me tryin' to steal my blues
    Thick smoke, see her smiling through
    I never thought so much could happen just shootin' pool
    But I can't dance
    I can't talk
    The only thing about me is the way that I walk
    I can't dance
    I can't sing
    I'm just standing here sellin'
    Oh and checking everything is in place
    You never know who's looking on
    A perfect body with a perfect face
    Mhm
    No, I can't dance
    I can't talk
    The only thing about me is the way I walk
    No, I can't dance
    I can't sing
    I'm just standing here sellin' everything
    No, I can't walk
    No, I can't dance
    No, no, no, I can't dance
    No, I said, I can't sing
