Hive Open Mic 88 - Loyalty and Fidelity: Bruno Mars Count on me (A Song on Friendship) by Ksam

What song best depicts loyalty and Fidelity than a song that speaks about Friendship???

Hola,
Buenos días para aquí 😁
Good morning from Nigeria!

Thanks to our spotlight artists Omar and Dina, with the username @musicandreview, for giving us this wonderful theme for this week.

Loyalty and Fidelity are virtues which are rare and are lacking in our world today. Many couples are having great difficulties with these virtues. We hear of so many extra-marital affairs going on, we hear of lost of trust, infidelity from spouses and disloyalty by one's most loved and cherished one. All these things happen even after the exchange of vows and promise of loyalty they made to each other on their wedding day.

Even in terms of Friendship and relationship, we see that Fidelity and loyalty are rare and that's why you'll see friends betraying friends for the sake of money, lust, power, position or influence.

This theme calls us to pay more attention to our Friendship and try to show Loyalty and Fidelity to those who we are in relationship with; either Friendship level or companionship level.

Bruno Mars best describes this loving friendship in his song, Count of Me.

If you ever find yourself stuck in the middle of the sea
I'll sail the world to find you
If you ever find yourself lost in the dark and you can't see
I'll be the light to guide you

We'll find out what we're made of
When we are called to help our friends in need

You can count on me like one, two, three
I'll be there
And I know when I need it, I can count on you like four, three, two
And you'll be there
'Cause that's what friends are supposed to do, oh, yeah
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, yeah, yeah

If you tossin' and you're turnin' and you just can't fall asleep
I'll sing a song beside you
And if you ever forget how much you really mean to me
Every day I will remind you, oh

We'll find out what we're made of
When we are called to help our friends in need

You can count on me like one, two, three
I'll be there
And I know when I need it, I can count on you like four, three, two
And you'll be there
'Cause that's what friends are supposed to do, oh, yeah
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, yeah, yeah

You'll always have my shoulder when you cry
I'll never let go, never say goodbye
You know...

You can count on me like one, two, three
I'll be there
And I know when I need it I can count on you like four, three, two
And you'll be there
'Cause that's what friends are supposed to do, oh, yeah
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh

You can count on me 'cause I can count on you
