HIVE OPEN MIC #130: CREATIVITY AND FREESTYLE | STAY- COVER BY USAGIDEE

To be absolutely honest, I have no idea what type of voice I have. My church's music director always included me in the group of soprano women when I was a young girl. He complimented my voice on its ability to hit high pitch notes. I've noticed how my voice gradually changes as I get older. As of now, I can easily reach high and low tones with my voice. Even though I don't know anything about music, I believe that my voice can be both a contralto and a mezzo-soprano.

Anyway, I would appreciate any comments if you know something about these classifications and I would be very thankful if you can help me figure out what type of voice I do really have.

Regarding the theme of creativity and freestyle, I selected the Rihanna song Stay because every time I sing it, I can hear how distinctive my voice is. It appears as though I can imitate any voice. If you were to watch my "Safe and Sound" cover again, you would notice that I sung the song in a light soprano, just like Taylor Swift did. You would also be able to hear how I used my contralto voice while I sing this Rihanna song today. In truth, I adore my voice. This inspires me so strongly to try to sing any kind of music.

Without further ado, here are the lyrics to the song "Stay." Let's sing together if you are familiar with this song.

"STAY"
All along it was a fever
A cold sweat, hot headed believer
I threw my hands in the air, said, "Show me something"
He said, "If you dare, come a little closer"
Round and around and around and around we go
Oh, now tell me now, tell me now, tell me now you know
Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you
It takes me all the way
I want you to stay
It's not much of a life you're living
It's not just something you take, it's given
Round and around and around and around we go
Oh, now tell me now, tell me now, tell me now you know
Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you
It takes me all the way
And I want you to stay
Ooh, the reason I hold on
Ooh, 'cause I need this hole gone
Well, funny you're the broken one
But I'm the only one who needed saving
'Cause when you never see the light
It's hard to know which one of us is caving
Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you
It takes me all the way
I want you to stay
Stay
I want you to stay
Ooh
