Hive Open Mic 92: Perfect by Ed Sheeran- Saxophone/Guitar Cover by Ksam

**Good evening from Ibadan, Nigeria

I hope we are all in the mood of LOVE! The mood to LOVE! And in the mood of receiving LOVE!

If you are not in that mood, then you aren't qualified to participate in this Week's special event of LOVE. 😏

We are in the 92nd week of our ever-bubbling Music event on Hive Platform, Hive Open Mic. This week's Theme is very special to me and I'm sure it is special to most of us. It is about LOVE!

The theme is: "Love of my Life." What a beautiful theme selected by @daniel2001, a talented flutist and pianist. @hiveopenmic describes him as:
"a beautiful human being."

I cannot say less because only one who has a beautiful heart can speak about love. Truly, he is a "beautiful human being."

*Love is a beautiful thing

Contemplating on the song to best express this theme, I had to make a very tough decision. We all know that the theme of Love has been used by many artists to compose so many songs on different genres of music: Classical, Rock, Afro beat, High Life, Reggae, RnB and a host of many others. Hence, you can understand why this decision was actually a tough one for me.

Well, I ended up choosing a Song that speaks of **PERFECTION in LOVE.

Ed Sheeran's Perfect does not just speak about "love of my life", but it speaks of perfection: **THE PERFECT LOVE OF MY LIFE.

Well, we know that perfection isn't something easy eeeehn. And many think it is impossible (Mission Impossible 9). But we need to be aware that perfect love grows. In other words, love grows to perfection; it doesn't magically becomes perfect in one night.

If you want to grow your love into a perfect state, you can read my favourite Ode to Love. Maybe, just Maybe, it will help out.

• Love is always patient and kind;
• Love is never jealous;
• Love is not boastful or conceited,
• Love is never rude and never seeks its own advantage,
• Love does not take offence or store up grievances.
• Love does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but finds its joy in the truth.
• Love is always ready to make allowances, to trust, to hope and to endure whatever comes.
• Love never comes to an end.
  (1st Corinthians 13:4-8)

I hope you enjoy this this piece. But before I forget. How do y'all professional Saxophonists keep up with Dry weather? 😅😅😅 I can't count the number of times I recorded this video and its not even PERFECT 🤣🤣 I am sure I recorded nothing less than 30 times. The Sax Reed magically becomes dry after 2 minutes, it becomes harder to sustain breathe or produce better tone. I wish to become a professional like you two someday 🙏🏽
