Ordinary || By Alex Warren
Every great love story that has ever been told has a great deal of sacrifice behind it.
Love is more than just a pretty face, a nice couple holding hands, walking in the park, and all those perfect-fit photos for the glamorous. Love has always been more than a walk in the park; sometimes your love will be tested, and sometimes again and again.
Love is more than just finding a perfect match and boom, driving into the sunshine of happily ever after. Most times it requires sacrifice, patience, tests of the edges, and choosing one another over and over again for most love to thrive. These are the things I have learned about love even from a very young age.
But one thing is for sure: when you find that right person for you, they make you feel extraordinary, they make you whole, and they make you believe that you two can conquer the world.
Love is being vulnerable, letting yourself be seen even at your worst. Love is loving yourself, loving others, and allowing yourself to be loved in return. Love is looking out for the best in each other and helping each other grow. Love is not shying away from those uncomfortable conversations because behind them lies knowing yourself and allowing each other to grow into a better version.
Finding great songs for me these days is a bit challenging as my taste in music continues to change, but the universe was being so kind to me when I discovered this one on YouTube yesterday.
Ordinary is a song by Alex, a 24-year-old internet celebrity. I have heard the song a couple of times via a TikTok short but never really paid much attention to it until now. Ordinary is a song that gives a fresh voice, a new and inspiring perspective on love.
It was inspired by the artist's real-life story, who found love at the lowest point of his life. He happened to be homeless and was sleeping inside friends cars, yet his then girlfriend, now his beloved wife, still chose him. Regardless of the situation. And to see him make a song out of the story, such a beautiful and heartfelt song, is breathtaking.
I watched the first video of the song, and I was blown away.
Then I saw their personal wedding version of it; just watch and tell me what could be more romantic than this. This is the kind of song that will make you want to start planning your wedding 💍 if you are single, and even as a married person, this made me feel like redoing our wedding lol 😂.
Watching the video for the first time, it felt like time stood still; it speaks to my soul in such a soothing and mesmerizing way.
If you want something new, refreshing, and soul-soothing, you should pick up your earplugs and let this awesome melody take you on a musical journey your soul will thank you for.
And to all my single ladies of Hive, if I were you, I'd show this to my future husband as a clue as to how he should treat me on our wedding day. After all, love is all about communication, letting our partner know the best way to handle us. 🥰 And to all my single gentlemen on Hive, I'm giving you this video as an expo, free of charge, just in case you haven't seen it before, hehe.
If you do listen, please let me know your thoughts in the comment section. As for me, this song will be topping my playlist for as much as possible.
Thank you very much for your time and support, the two images are mine. Video links from the artist's YouTube channel.
The poor connection I have here has made it impossible for me to hear the full melody, but from the emotion-filled nature you share about it and the fragment of the video that I was able to enjoy, I know it's stupendous, capable of moving the soul.
My dear Maiasun, sorry about the network, hopefully the network will more kinder later so you will be able to enjoy this melody.
Thank you very much for your support 😊🙏
I'll hope so. Sending hugs of light!!!

I hadn't heard that song, but my kids knew it and told me they loved it, so I played the wedding video and when I saw the way he was looking at it, my heart melted and I couldn't take my eyes off that couple for the whole video. So beautiful.
Have a nice day.
The way he could not wait to kiss his bride took me out😍.
Your comment makes me smile 😊, I'm glad you watched this video and enjoyed it. Thank you for your comment, have an awesome day.
And the way he finally kissed her!!!! Whew, so much with too much.
Have a great day too.
I loved this song from the first time that I listened to it. There's this passion that is embedded in the way Alex sings the song.
Alex is so awesome in this song and even in some other songs on his album.
I haven't explored the rest of the album yet. But now that you've mentioned, maybe I will.
Heheh, give it a try when you get the chance.🥰❣️
I will😊
I love how you approach and develop your criteria, and I completely agree.
Excellent song you've brought us as a complement!
Thank you so much, I'm glad 😊 you enjoyed the song.
