Hive Open Mic Week 320 || People by Libianca (A Freestyle)
Hola a todos. Empieza una nueva semana, y es maravilloso estar aquí de nuevo para el Open Mic de esta semana. Por alguna razón, me encanta el tema de esta semana. Puede que haya muchas razones para ello, pero creo que, sobre todo, es porque soy realista. Creo en los días malos; creo que a veces nos tocan momentos de mala suerte y tristes. Aunque no los deseo, los acepto como parte de la vida cuando llegan.

For this week, I have chosen a beautiful Afrobeat song. Though I have my reservations about the message I think the song might be trying to convey, I love the song so much for some reason. The song I will be performing today is "People" by Libianca. But I think I will end up performing an entirely different song in the long run. That notwithstanding, this inspired my performance today, and whatever I am doing is a freestyle of the song.
Para esta semana, he elegido una preciosa canción de afrobeat. Aunque tengo mis reservas sobre el mensaje que creo que la canción intenta transmitir, por alguna razón me encanta. La canción que voy a interpretar hoy es «People», de Libianca. Pero creo que al final acabaré interpretando una canción totalmente diferente. A pesar de ello, esta me ha servido de inspiración para mi actuación de hoy, y lo que voy a hacer es una versión improvisada de la canción.
"People" is a song that conveys very sad emotions. Regardless of the message it originally conveys, it could be considered one of those songs that could be played when one is experiencing a sad moment. But to be particular, the song "People" speaks about how unreliable people can be. In her words, "people don't really know you"; they do not see you. And that, for her, explains why you could be in your worst state and those around you would never notice.
«People» es una canción que transmite emociones muy tristes. Independientemente del mensaje que transmita originalmente, podría considerarse una de esas canciones que se pueden escuchar cuando uno está pasando por un momento triste. Pero, para ser más concretos, la canción «People» habla de lo poco fiables que pueden ser las personas. En sus propias palabras, «la gente no te conoce de verdad»; no te ven. Y eso, para ella, explica por qué puedes estar en tu peor momento y los que te rodean nunca se darían cuenta.
As much as possible, I will make sure the message of the song remains intact, but I cannot promise the same for the lyrics. I will be doing lots of playing around with the lyrics; as a matter of fact, I will be adding some original lyrics myself. The song originally does not have many lyrics, but I will need just the chorus of the original song while I add every other thing that will be said. I did not actually score the original song, nor pay attention to its progression, but I will be using a 6-4-2-3 progression with, of course, some extensions.
En la medida de lo posible, me aseguraré de que el mensaje de la canción se mantenga intacto, pero no puedo prometer lo mismo en cuanto a la letra. Voy a jugar mucho con la letra; de hecho, voy a añadir algunas estrofas originales de mi propia cosecha. La canción original no tiene mucha letra, pero solo necesitaré el estribillo de la canción original mientras añado todo lo demás que se dirá. En realidad, no he transcrito la partitura de la canción original ni he prestado atención a su progresión, pero voy a utilizar una progresión 6-4-2-3 con, por supuesto, algunas extensiones.
The idea is to create something unique, and I hope I have been able to do that. Please do well to tell me what you think about my performance. I would particularly love to hear from those who know the original song; please do well to tell me what you think about my own version of "People," what I did wrong, and how you think I could have done it better.
La idea es crear algo único, y espero haberlo conseguido. Por favor, no dudéis en decirme qué os parece mi interpretación. Me encantaría especialmente saber la opinión de quienes conozcan la canción original; por favor, decidme qué os parece mi versión de «People», qué he hecho mal y cómo creéis que podría haberlo hecho mejor.
I am @ernesto6402, and I appreciate you for stopping by and reading through to the end. God bless you, and may sad days never be your portion. One Love ✌🏽.
Soy @ernesto6402, y te agradezco que te hayas pasado por aquí y hayas leído hasta el final. Que Dios te bendiga, y que nunca te toquen días tristes. One Love ✌🏽.
All these while I thought I've got friends all around me
Those who will always be there for me
All these while I thought I've got friends all over me
Those who will never give up on me
Todo este tiempo pensé que tenía amigos a mi alrededor,
que siempre estarían ahí para mí.
Todo este tiempo pensé que tenía amigos por todas partes,
que nunca me darían la espalda.
But I've been drinking more alcohol for the last five days
Noone checked on me
Noone even noticed me
I walked in the room eyes are red like I just smoked banger
Noone checked, noone even noticed me
Pero llevo cinco días bebiendo más alcohol
Nadie se ha preocupado por mí
Nadie se ha dado cuenta siquiera de que estoy aquí
Entré en la habitación con los ojos rojos, como si acabara de fumarme un porro
Nadie se ha preocupado, nadie se ha dado cuenta siquiera de que estoy aquí

Greetings, bro! Absolutely, this song perfectly captures the sentiment driving us this week, which is often intertwined with sadness. There are bad days that can feel even worse when the wrong kind of people are up to their usual antics around us. Be that as it may, it is a feeling that we have the power to turn around ourselves; after all, there is nothing better than facing a bad day with a big smile—no matter how difficult that may be. Thanks for participating; it’s a beautiful entry.

Thank you so much, @jesuslnrs. I completely agree with you; “there is absolutely nothing better than facing our bad days with a big smile on our faces.” I usually tell a friend of mine who often gets angry easily that no one has the right to control her emotions and that she can choose to be happy even when people want otherwise for her. I strongly believe that it is our choice to either be happy or not and that we can be happy even in our most difficult times.
Thank you so much, @jesuslnrs, for stopping by today. You are one of those who have been really supportive throughout my stay here on the blockchain, and I really appreciate that. God bless you, sir...
Starting from the way you speaks, I knew your presentation will be a blast 💥 you really ate this song completely, thanks for sharing with us brotherly 🙏
Thank you so much bro 😊
