Hive Open Mic 135, Fight Oppression - Avenged Sevenfold - So Far Away (Acoustic Cover)
Hello and welcome to my entry to Hive Open Mic 135!
**Fight Oppression **
There is a lot going on in the world right now, and many places are still suffering from unneccessary forms of control. In my opinion, parts of the world need to wake up to modern life and we ALL need to start loving more. People are great, most of us anyway. Generally, humans are amazing - there just tends to be the select few that push tyranical and unjust laws upon their people. Or some older fundamentalists...
A positive note
We can make a change - we can't stand back and wait for laws to be changed or the powers to step down, we can begin the better future, one step at a time :) it's by loving each other! Which is something I know we all do! Being a good, loving and caring person is very contagious and it attracts positive energy!
Avenged Sevenfold - So Far Away
I chose this song as it is a message to afar. It is more of a love song, but it can be interpreted in many ways - for me, it boosts me up with the deep emotion. I can release negative or emotional energy and feel a sense of fulfilment when I hear this song!:) I sure hope you all do to!
I am still working on my singing, so if any singers would like to give me any tips that would be awesome! I always welcome constructive feedback!:) I will continue to practice and improve - it is so much fun and I sure do enjoy it! I have a few goals for next year of playing some live shows, so I really have to work on my singing for that!:)
Peace and love to you all!
PS - I do have a video of my playing the guitar solo to this song, I will post it below if anyone was interested OR was expecting a guitar solo from me :)
Also, if anyone is wondering what I am doing whilst playing, it is scrolling through the lyrics! I have never been great at remembering lyrics :)

My dear brother, before going on to talk about your majestic presentation, I will answer in this comment the 2 you made to me recently and that I did not answer at the time. The strat guitar you saw in the video of week 133 is my 1st electric guitar, I love that guitar, I use it for metal songs commonly tuned in drop c, that guitar is Aria brand, very good despite being mid range. And regarding the other comment, rest assured I'll check out that YouTube channel, that track you used last week where you made the guitar roar is amazing Bro!!!
Now.... Avenged Sevenfold, this band is spectacular, from their ballads to their heavier songs they are incredible and this acoustic version of yours of this tremendous song has been simply BRUTAL... the video of the solos is amazing, you have an admirable technique brother, I always watch your solo videos carefully to learn the handling you have in fingering and strumming the strings, you have become a guide without knowing it, well you already know hahaha, you are the best !!!
My brother, you sang very well, you already have a unique stamp, your voice is very good like this, but I think (you know that I am not the best singer in the world) that if you add the vibrato technique to your voice, you will sound even more incredible , it would be great to hear you do vibratos at the end of phrases while you sing that will make your voice more attractive than it already is!!!
It has been a great pleasure visiting you, please forgive me for the length of this answer, I owed you my answers Bro, I send you a big hug, keep rocking the world as you do and yes, love is the solution to all this chaos, let's fight so that as a majority we can bring peace to the world again and improve everything that needs to be improved... we keep seeing each other along the way brother... You Rockkk!!! 👊😎🔥🎙️🎸🎶❤️🌟🍻💥💫💯
Hey my bro! Ah cool! Aria make some good guitars that are priced well! It sounds awesome dude :) plus, the first guitar is always the most special!:)
Oh yes dude, Avenged Sevenfold are incredible! I saw them live at Download festival back around 2013! Hearing Synyster Gates shred live was so crazy! Plus, M Shadows voice is insane live! Loved it!
Ah man - thank you so much for the wonderful comments around my playing dude - it means the world to me! My rhythm playing needs to improve a little in my opinion, so I am just going to keep on working! :D
Thank you so much for the tip man! I will work on adding some vibrato onto my vocals! I look forward to keep working on my singing over the coming year :) a few years ago I struggled with it so it is cool to gain some confidence now :)
Keep on rocking man! We are together in this journey! :D
