That was a great performance for something with no practice. Very well done! And you sing with your heart, huh!

Yours is a bit of a mellow version as compared to the original one and is a nice "variation" of the song. Sometimes people would wonder how an art would be in a different form and you gave clarity to that curiosity for this particular example.

You perform fairly smoothly. Have you really been singing and playing the guitar for a long time?

That you so much for the compliment and kind words!

Yes, some songs I perform a little softer than the original, unless it's a song that requires more power from my voice.

I've been playing and singing since the age of 12. There are a handful of songs that I will probably never forget, no matter how long I don't play. This is one of those songs I have been playing my whole life.

Thank you for stopping by and commenting, I'm very happy you enjoyed my variation!

Lucky for you! I've been told that I do not have the beautiful voice to sing when I was about seven or eight. For some reasons it got instilled in my head so I forgot about doing it. However, my interest in music will always be with me. At least to appreciate and cheer for those who do.

Thank you @erikah!!!! As far as I'm concerned, curie is one of the highest honors on Steemit, and it isn't earned easily! Today has been like a dream, 🤗🤩😘

erikah (72) 5 years ago

Glad to see you back on your spirit. Beautiful performance. Put a copy of the same on dtube as well.

futuremind (71) 5 years ago

Hi @sanmi, thank you for the kind words and compliment!

I have thought about uploading this to dtube, but I am worried it would be considered abuse? For double posting?

$0.00

sanmi (64) 5 years ago

Nope, in Dtube, you can post this as original content, and share even the youtube link, if people are not able to load the dtube one.

I have seen many people doing that, because the curators in dtube are always looking for original content, and they cannot reward youtube videos.

futuremind (71) 5 years ago

This is good to know! I will take your advice and upload to dtube!
Thank you sanmi.

futuremind (71) 5 years ago

Still too many errors friend. I tried probably 10 different formats already, and they all failed for uploading :(
Thank you for the suggestion though. I will work on figuring this out for the future.

sanmi (64) 5 years ago

I uploaded one today and it worked good, it tries to upload too many things, do you have a slow internet connection ? The one I uploaded was in mp4 format.

$0.00

futuremind (71) 5 years ago

I have a fast connection, but it's limited to 20 gigs.

I also have access to a slow unlimited, but of course I just burned about 2 gigs of my hotspot trying to upload.

I tried just about every possible format and resolutionn for mp4, and it kept giving me "unknown error".

I've used the mp4 format in the past with no issues. This is quite the conundrum. I'm pretty exhausted and doubt I will try again before resting.

sanmi (64) 5 years ago

Ok then I believe something is going wrong with the blockchain and that could be the reason. I would not advise to try again and eat up more from your fixed quota. May be sometimes later.

$0.00

futuremind (71) 5 years ago

Yes , I will wait around 24 hours and then try again.

Thank you for your assistance sanmi.

You could post a statement that the video is also posted on steemit and leave a link.

futuremind (71) 5 years ago

I keep getting formatting errors. I don't think I will be able to do it this time :(

$0.00

erikah (72) 5 years ago

Sorry to hear that, I've only uploaded one video I guess and it was a long time ago.

You should try later or ask for help on Discord.

$0.00

futuremind (71) 5 years ago

Good advice, thank you. Next time I upload I will ask if I am having problems. I've decided not to upload this to dtube, because of getting curie, it would be ethically wrong for me to double dip.

I will do this for sure! Thank you for the advice! I like the idea of supporting @dtube because it's a steem dapp. I just want to make sure I'm doing things correctly is all.
