Dtube Exclusive - Royals by Lorde (Ukulele Cover) ๐
Hi Friends!
Who went into a specialty hat shop, asked to see the crowns and proceeded to take selfies... just to get a good Dtube Thumbnail? This girl!
I hope you guys enjoy my ukulele cover of "Royals" by Lorde. This is a song that I never really seem to get sick of... no matter how often I hear it! I hope you guys enjoy. <3
I've never seen a diamond in the flesh
I cut my teeth on wedding rings in the movies
And I'm not proud of my address, in the torn up town
No post code envy
But every song's like gold teeth, Grey Goose, trippin' in the bathroom
Bloodstains, ball gowns, trashin' the hotel room
We don't care, we're driving Cadillacs in our dreams
But everybody's like Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your timepiece
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash
We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair
And we'll never be royals
It don't run in our blood
That kind of lux just ain't for us
We crave a different kind of buzz
Let me be your ruler, you can call me Queen B
And baby I'll rule (I'll rule I'll rule I'll rule)
Let me live that fantasy
My friends and I we've cracked the code
We count our dollars on the train to the party
And everyone who knows us knows that we're fine with this
We didn't come from money
But every song's like gold teeth, Grey Goose, trippin' in the bathroom
Bloodstains, ball gowns, trashin' the hotel room
We don't care, we're driving Cadillacs in our dreams
But everybody's like Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your timepiece
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash
We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair
And we'll never be royals
It don't run in our blood
That kind of lux just ain't for us
We crave a different kind of buzz
Let me be your ruler, you can call me Queen B
And baby I'll rule (I'll rule I'll rule I'll rule)
Let me live that fantasy
We're bigger than we ever dreamed, and I'm in love with being queen
(Ooh ooh oh)
Life is great without a care
We aren't caught up in your love affair
And we'll never be royals
It don't run in our blood
That kind of lux just ain't for us
We crave a different kind of buzz
Let me be your ruler, you can call me Queen B
And baby I'll rule (I'll rule I'll rule I'll rule)
Let me live that fantasy
Have a great day!
Xo, Lea

Iโm so glad you enjoyed the cover!
wow you are really talented, love the sound of that ukulele!
Thanks so much @passie15! Iโm really glad you enjoyed this video.
you are welcome
I was really expecting to see a crown on your head in the actual video. I was sad when I didn't see.
Nice one! Triple Threat!
LOL
Hahah I actually thought about buying the crown, but it was like $30! Iโm not a big fan of spending money on things that I will only use once. Still, the thought definitely crossed my mind!
I definitely got a few weird looks in the hat store when I was taking selfieโs with it. ๐
The first time I commented on one of your posts was when you were asking about writing lyrics. I can't remember what exactly was written, but I must have mentioned my daughter playing ukelele because you recommended uketabs. Her favorite covers to practice have been Just Like Fire, Our Song and most recently, this tune! Anyways she's just starting out on Steem and I'm trying to encourage her to do a uke D-TUBE. I'll definitely be showing her this post!
Aww so sweet!! That was definitely me who mentioned uku-tabs. ๐ it is my favorite website for ukulele music, and Iโm so glad to hear your daughter has been using it!!!
I would LOVE to see her post a Dtube video! Please let me know if she ever does, I would really love to check it out. :-)
really nice one. whats up next?!
Hmm... Iโm working on something pretty fun(and a little crazy), but Iโm not ready to post it yet! Thinking I might do a Colbie Caillat cover in the meantimez I really enjoy her songs! :-)
let see when we can team up a proper 100% steem funded band! :D
Whaaa??? Iโm in!!
I am Not a good musician rather an organizer. Do you Plan to go to steemfest 3 in 2019? This Would be the Best Spot to Talk About This!
I am definitely hoping to attend this year! The only reason I wouldnโt go is if I canโt make the dates. Iโm surprised they havnt announced anything yet in terms of dates/location.
Did you go last year? It looked amazing.
no, i couldnt make the dates either. @surfermarly (german steemian) said to me, it is not really sure if there will be 3rd version so let see. They probably have a higher focus to push features and plattforms like dtube and dlive.
Aww really? I hope that isnโt the case! Iโve been really excited about the idea of getting to attend and meet people!
I think the folksy vibe with the uke makes me like this song a lot better. You've made this song extremely charming :). Good work.
Hehe thanks friend!! The Ukulele definitely gives a different vibe to this song. :-)
Until this post I had no idea Lorde was a real singer. I thought it was a South Park gag with Randy.
hahah of course you did. ๐ Sheโs real... and actually a total bad-ass in my opinion!
Aww no way! I thought you used photoshop for the crown...but a real one's legit! Great song. Have you heard the Weird Al version called "Foil"? It's pretty funny :)
OMG I hang seen it yet... but Iโm literally going to watch it right now. Love Weird Al. ๐
Also, Iโm glad you enjoyed the cover photo! I got a few weird looks from the people working at the hat store though. #worthit
Love it! And love the crown :)
Hehe glad you got a kick out of that! ๐
Couples should treat one another like royals. God has chosen to put a couple together, we are special to one another. Your love of singing while playing your ukulele can clearly be seen. May your song bring good reminder that couples should not take one another for granted but treat one another like king and queen.
