▶️ Watch on 3Speak

Hello all my friends on Hive, especially for my friends on the Hive Music Festival @musiczone. I'm so glad to be a part of this great community, and to be able to share what I have to cheer you all up.

This is my first participation for Hive Music Festival, I'm a bit nervous but I try to give my best for this performance. In my first moment, I tried to cover an old song by Bon Jovi which was very popular in the 90's. This song called "Always", one of the best songs at that time, which was released in 1994.

The reason I chose this song for my first entry is because this song has special memories for me. The first time I learned to sing English songs with this song "Always". This is where I first started to gain confidence to sing other English songs when performing with my band at that time. Although I am aware, my ability is still not as perfect as the original singer. My performance with my band

Apart from having good songs, I also like the 90s rock band music genre, one of which is Bon Jovi. For me this genre of music is very strong, assertive and full of emotion. So that we can express ourselves very deeply. Even though the 90s rock music genre is relatively old, in fact many people still like it. Even many young people still like the genre of classical music like that.

I cover this song by giving a little difference in some parts. Like in the intro melody, in the interlude section and also in the last chorus. Hope you guys like my cover version, even though it's still not perfect like the original version, but I'm sure you guys will enjoy it.

ALWAYS (Bon Jovi) Lyrics

This Romeo is bleeding But you can't see his blood It's nothing but some feelings That this old dog kicked up

It's been raining since you left me Now I'm drowning in the flood You see, I've always been a fighter But without you, I give up

I can't sing a love song Like the way it's meant to be Well, I guess I'm not that good anymore But baby, that's just me

And I will love you, baby, always And I'll be there forever and a day, always I'll be there 'til the stars don't shine 'Til the heavens burst and the words don't rhyme And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind And I'll love you, always

Now your pictures that you left behind Are just memories of a different life Some that made us laugh, some that made us cry One that made you have to say goodbye

What I'd give to run my fingers through your hair To touch your lips, to hold you near When you say your prayers, try to understand I've made mistakes, I'm just a man

When he holds you close, when he pulls you near When he says the words you've been needing to hear I wish I was him With these words of mine To say to you 'til the end of time

I will love you baby, always And I'll be there forever and a day, always

If you told me to cry for you, I could If you told me to die for you, I would Take a look at my face There's no price I won't pay To say these words to you

Well, there ain't no luck In these loaded dice But baby, if you give me just one more try We can pack up our old dreams And our old lives We'll find a place where the sun still shines

And I will love you, baby, always And I'll be there forever and a day, always I'll be there 'til the stars don't shine 'Til the heavens burst and the words don't rhyme I know when I die, you'll be on my mind And I'll love you, always
