Steemits openmic Songwriters challenge week 7 - Right Place, Right time
Hello Steemians!
I'm here once more to participate in the greatness that are Open mic's songwriters challenge (week 7) and Open mic (week 67), this week the theme was right place and/or right time, I went with both ;)
This is my entry!
Here are the lyrics:
Another day
I wake up looking for answers
will I find some?
Another night
And I can't sleep
I shiver
I shiver
And sometimes
When I feel lost
It's right there
right in front of me
and sometimes
When I reach out
and take the time
to see
It shows it's self
I see
It shows it's self
Right place
Right time
Not much to say
but maybe
if I go looking
I'll find something
And sometimes
When I feel lost
It's right there
right in front of me
and sometimes
When I reach out
and take the time
Take the time to see
It shows it's self
I see
It shows it's self
Right place
Right time
Sorry for the poor quality of the video and audio, I wasn't at home and couldn't get there soon enough to record an edit a properly, I had to get the video out so I used my Ipad's front camera and microphone. That just goes to show that the saying is true, the best camera is the one you have at hand, in this case that also applies to the microphone :)
This song is about the process of writing a song, it can sometimes have you losing sleep and you can feel how close you are to getting there and you try and try and try, but try as you may, you don't. And then you just take some time to relax and let the idea or the parts come to you, and the you reach out and there it is, it doesn't feel like you had to work so hard for it, it feel like you where at the right place at the right time :D
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did writing it. And thank you very much for taking the time to listen!!!

Jajaja gracias!! :)
Great entry, Luis! I loved your post as well - you are quite the asset to both the open-mic and songwriters communities.
And no - it's NOT a small thing - not at all - not to me anyway. I know what it feels like to be recognized and appreciated for one's efforts, and you my friend, are deserving of all such appreciation and recognition.
Thank you, @luisferchav!
Hey @passion-ground! Thank you very much for you kind words! They really humble me :)
I believe this is the one place I've found on the internet that actually truly appreciates the work we do, be it a cover or an original, if we put some real effort on an entry people notice and reward you, it's crazy to think that this cryptocurrency revolution had to happen for that to be a possibility!
I feel incredibly lucky to have found this place thanks to @pechichemena and @meno!!
And now I keep meeting really cool people such as you and @luzcypher and all the people I've met at discord as well. This community is inspiring.
Beautiful song man. Love the lyrics and melodies.
Thank you very much @luzcypher!! I'm really happy you liked them! :)
Genial Luis!! Me encantó la interpretación bastante original que le diste al tema de esta semana. Por cierto, tengo pendiente la lectura de tu post sobre tu proceso de grabación que sin dudar voté y compartí, porque estoy deguro que es de calidad, pero es que mi inglés y yo estamos peleados ajajajaja Un abrazo.
Hola!!, uff, no cai en cuenta!!, fak los proximos voy a tratar de hacer uno en español y uno en ingles hehe, depronto me animo a hacer estos dos que ya hice en ingles hehe. Un abrazo!!
great guitar skills
