Steemit Open Mic Is About Building A Community Of Musicians On Steemit Not About Winning --- by @luzcypher

Special thanks to @krystle for help judging the contest this week. Great job.

Steemit Open Mic is not about winning or losing, it's about building a connections on Steemit through music. Watching the collaborations happen online between musicians who played and met on Steemit Open Mic is very rewarding and many of the people who play and post earn some nice rewards for playing a song.

For many, it's easier to get some Steem in your tip jar by playing for Steemit Open Mic than it is to play music on the street.

Top 20 Trending Open Mic Posts

NOTE: Having a trending post is not how judges pick entries for their Top 5 weekly picks. Sometimes you will trend because of a variety of reasons. Congratulations! You don't need to win Open Mic to earn rewards and build your audience. As you can see, sometimes trending posts earn more than the contest rewards! You could trend by getting curated by other curation groups like @curie for example. The judges look for entertainment value which, of course, is very subjective and varies over time. Just keep playing and engaging with the community which is the whole point of Open Mic. If you love music, we love you.

Steemit Open Mic Week 121 Did You Want It Too --- by @trevorpetrie


We have surely missed you during your hiatus in joining us in our Open Mic Family. Welcome back without a doubt, and you have made your return with quite a beautiful and profoundly moving original that was worth the wait. You have always had a knack and talent for songwriting and performing, and your choruses are embedded in the listeners mind, planting a seed of admiration that just grows over time. Even to this day, I still have "Lion In My Closet" prowling around in my thoughts throughout the most spontaneous moments of day to day life. "Did You Want It Too" is another one for the books, and thank you very much for sharing this gem. Your passionate singing and smooth playing and delivery made this an easy pick for 1st place for me this week. Definitely looking forward to more from you bro. - @verbal-d


<I love your original music, you have such a unique sound that I just love so much - there is so much raw emotion and passion in your music, it's exactly what I want from a song and more.

Your playing as always is superb, the composition and all it's intricate layers of textures are just awesome to the ear - I love hearing the build and then you just letting it all out, kick ass man.

Then there's your vocals, you have such an amazingly emotive voice - you can hear the turmoil and grit of the feelings of the song, just brilliant on every level. - @krystle


2nd Place

You won 40 Steem


Steemit Openmic Week 121 Amor Eterno By Dianakyv --- by @dianakyv


This was a musical treat for the ears this week and a great cover song you have chosen and performed. You have revealed some very deep lyrics that reflect a sombre longing for a lost loved one and the poetry imagery are made real with your wonderfully seamless singing, displaying your capable wide range and passionate intensity to convey conviction and true emotion to this piece. Thank you for sharing this gem and looking forward to more of your entries. - @verbal-d


Brilliant playing and accompaniment, I love the combination of your vocals with the guitar - it's angelic and so stunningly beautiful. - @krystle



3rd Place

You won 26 Steem

Steemit Open Mic Week 121 Original Music Too Far From The Sea --- by @katrina-ariel


I adore these lyrics, not only do they tell a story they also allow the listener to decide what the story is - that is a truly incredible feat lovely, your skill is clear and I just can't get enough.

This was spectacular and I absolutely love this song, I had to sing along with you - not only the bloody brilliant lyrics, but the vocals are also freakin sublime.

You have an amazing range, your tone is stunning - there is a beautiful clarity to your vocals and best of all, your control is just next level.

I am absolutely obsessed with this song, I can see it being played alongside a epic moment in a block buster movie - like I can see what I would put this to in my mind, that is how clear this song was for me. - @krystle


4th Place

You won 26 Steem

Steemit Openmic Week 121 Cover Amorcito Corazon Por Danieldedosd2 --- by @danieldedosd2


Your performance is technically perfect, that goes for both playing and singing - that guitar is like an extension of your body and it is just breathtaking to behold.

Then there's the vocals, the absolutely faultless vocals - you have a tremendous vocal range with phenomenal vocal control, I am left here a little speechless as a result of just how brilliant that was! - @krystle


5th Place

You won 26 Steem

Steemit Openmic Week 121 Be Better Original --- by @thesimpson


Songs like these are what help us realize the greatness we are all capable of. Time is limited and every day is precious and we can always improve the way we love and treat one another in this fleeting life and this bitterly, brisk cold world. I really admire impacting songs such as this one, that make a difference and leave a lingering sense of self reflection and deep contemplation for the bigger picture of knowing our true purpose and existence, which is love. For without love, what is anything worth? You played well and poured out your heart out in this performance, definitely worthy of praise and recognition. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to what you come up with next. - @verbal-d

Thank you so much @luzcypher, @verbal-d, @krystle and everyone who voted for my song. I'm sorry it's taken me a week to spot this but I actually thought that this song had slipped everyone by and I was second guessing the track until I noticed @verbal-d's comment on my original post last night whilst trying to setup a Steem client on my phone. Imagine my surprise when I then found I'd mot only made @krystle's list as well but actually been named the winner of week 121. I'm gobsmacked. I've missed Open Mic immensely and I think about you all frequently, I'm sorry I haven't been able to be present. Sometimes the universe throws a pebble into the pond and the ripples take a while to settle.

Congratulations! I'm so glad you won and love your music. Hope to hear more soon.

Cheers @luzcypher definitely more coming soon!
