Holler Hive Open Mic Community, Sleemfit here and this is my very post on the open mic community,I hope it's received well here. So for this week's theme "Undisclosed Words" I'd be performing "Unsteady by alt-rock band (X Ambassadors).
This rock ballad finds lead vocalist Sam Harris singing of a child observing a potential breakup between his parents.
Hold on
Hold on to me
Cause I'm a little unsteady
A little unsteady
The child senses the turmoil between his mom and dad and pleads with them to stay together for his sake.
The song features on the soundtrack of the tear-jerker romantic drama "Me Before You".
Sam Harris and his brother Casey (keyboards) had to live through their own parents' marriages breaking down.
Sam Harris explained in a video track by track: "'Unsteady' is a song about divorce and a family kind of trying to keep itself together. It's partially based on our parents' divorce and we tried to show as many sides of the story as possible, you know, from the mother's perspective, from the father's perspective and from the child's perspective. And, yeah, that was a pretty uncomfortable song to write but, because it was an uncomfortable topic, I felt like it was worth exploring."
I personally feel this song portrays a lot of undisclosed words,looking at the background and upbringing of the artistes(X Ambassadors).
Their parents going through divorce and they really couldn't do or say much about it,and of course they didn't want that to happen,but then it did. Some part of the song says this
"If you love me,don't let go". They finally created a powerful rock ballad out of it.
I do hope you enjoy my cover of this powerful song. Kindly let me know what you think of it in the comment section. See you soon guys🤍.
