Greetings to everyone in this beautiful global community. I'm happy to share in Hive Open Mic Week #205, where we explore the theme: "Musical Idol" chosen by friend and recent featured artist in our community: @wealthwess. I consider that a musical idol is an artist, singer or musical group that arouses great admiration and fascination. Since I was a child I have felt great sympathy for various genres and musical groups. Today I want to share with you my interpretation with the trumpet of one of the artists of great relevance today, for whom I have great admiration. "What Was I Made For?" is a pop ballad by Billie Eilish and Finneas O'Connell. This song talks about the search for identity and purpose and was included in the soundtrack of the movie Barbie (2023). I love its minimalist and melancholic melody. Mainly, it has a G major chord, with some rhythmic variations that generate a feeling of uncertainty and floating. It has a slow tempo that reflects contemplation and inner search. Its success lies in simplicity, the use of repetition and the power of its message.

Saludos a todos en esta bella comunidad global. Me siento feliz de compartir en el Hive Open Mic Semana #205, donde exploramos la temática: "Musical Idol" elegida por el amigo y artista destacado reciente de nuestra comunidad: @wealthwess. Considero que un ídolo musical es un artista, cantante o grupo musical que despierta una gran admiración y fascinación. Desde niño he sentido gran simpatía por diversos géneros y agrupaciones musicales. Hoy deseo compartirles mi interpretación con la trompeta de una de las artistas de gran relevancia actual, por las cuales siento gran admiración. «What Was I Made For?», es una balada pop de Billie Eilish y Finneas O'Connell. Esta canción habla sobre la búsqueda de identidad y propósito y fue incluida en la banda sonora de la película Barbie (2023). Me encanta su melodía minimalista y melancólica. Principalmente, tiene un acorde de G mayor, con algunas variaciones rítmicas que generan una sensación de incertidumbre y flotación. Tiene un tempo lento que refleja la contemplación y la búsqueda interior. Su éxito reside en la simplicidad, el uso de la repetición y el poder de su mensaje.

One of the things that makes me consider Billie Eilish a musical idol is her exceptional talent, her attractive and magnetic personality, and her connection with the public. I am sure that in time she will be considered a legend, leaving an indelible mark on the history of music. I really like her musical and aesthetic style that breaks with convention. Without a doubt, she is a reference for youth who seek individuality and personal expression. She has a unique and expressive voice, in addition to collaborating in the composition and production of her music with her brother Finneas. This creative control of hers allows her to fully capture her artistic vision. I recommend listening to her albums "When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?", and "Happier Than Ever". I have great admiration for her music and the quality of her work.

What Was I Made For?

I used to float, now I just fall down
I used to know, but I'm not sure now
What I was made for
What was I made for?

Takin' a drive, I was an ideal
Looked so alive, turns out I'm not real
Just somethin' you paid for
What was I made for?

'Cause I, I
I don't know how to feel
But I wanna try
I don't know how to feel
But someday, I might
Someday, I might

Mm, mm, ah
Mm, mm, mm

When did it end? All the enjoyment
I'm sad again, don't tell my boyfriend
It's not what he's made for
What was I made for?

'Cause I, 'cause I
I don't know how to feel
But I wanna try
I don't know how to feel
But someday, I might
Someday, I might

Think I forgot how to be happy
Somethin' I'm not, but somethin' I can be
Somethin' I wait for
Somethin' I'm made for
Somethin' I'm made for
