Hello everyone!😊 I hope we're all doing great. I must say, I feel blessed to be a member of this wonderful community. It has truly been an amazing experience, having to connect with so many talented artists here.

I'm also really glad to be graced with the opportunity to partake in this week's edition.
In line with the, wonderful theme "Opportunity" which has been selected for us by our spotlight artist @sekani, I'd be performing a cover of the song, "Clouds" by Zach Sobiech.

I happen to have chosen this special song after listening to it just recently. The story behind it is truly sad but the lyrics hold an inspiring message which brings about a strong connection to the theme.

Zach Sobiech who is behind this beautiful song was diagnosed with bone cancer Osteosarcoma and doctors told him that the cancer had spread and that he had only a few months to live.
He then recorded this song about his battle with cancer in response to doctors' predictions.

In this song, he inspires others to grab the opportunity and make the most of life just like he did while chasing his music dreams, He used this song as a means of saying goodbye to his family and friends and in the lyrics, he says; "If only I had a little bit more time with you.", Here he was referring to his girlfriend, he sang about the wonderful things they would have done together if he had the opportunity to live. It really touches me and each time I listen to this song, I feel bad that such an awful thing had to happen to him.

This song really inspires me to be thankful for the great opportunity God has given, The Opportunity of Life!

Now, I really wish I could play a guitar so my cover sounds much nicer but I truly hope you enjoy!❤️


LYRICS

I fell down down down
To this dark and lonely hole
There was no one there to care about me anymore
And I needed a way to climb and grab a hold of the edge
You were sitting there holding a rope

And we'll go up, up, up
But I'll fly a little higher
We'll go up in the clouds because the view's a little nicer
Up here my dear
It won't be long now, it won't be long now

And when we get back on land
Well I'll never get my chance
Be ready to live and it'll be ripped right out of my hands and
Maybe someday we'll take a little ride
We'll go up, up, up and everything will be just fine

We'll go up, up, up
But I'll fly a little higher
Go up in the clouds because the view's a little nicer
Up here my dear

It won't be long now, it won't be long now
If only
I had a little bit more time

If only
I had a little bit more time with you
We could go up, up, up
And take that little ride
We'll sit there holding hands
And everything will be just right

And maybe someday I'll see you again
We'll float up in the clouds and we'll never see the end
We'll go up, up, up
But I'll fly a little higher
Go up in the clouds because the view is a little nicer
Up here my dear
It won't be long now, it won't be long now

¡Hola a todos! 😊 Espero que todos estemos muy bien. Debo decir que me siento bendecido de ser miembro de esta maravillosa comunidad. Realmente ha sido una experiencia increíble tener que conectarme con tantos artistas talentosos aquí.

También estoy muy contento de tener la oportunidad de participar en la edición de esta semana.
En línea con el maravilloso tema "Opportunity" que ha sido elegido para nosotros por nuestro artista destacado @sekani, interpretaré una versión de la canción "Clouds" de Zach Sobiech.

Elegí esta canción especial después de escucharla recientemente. La historia detrás es realmente triste y la letra contiene un mensaje inspirador que generó una fuerte conexión con el tema.

Zach Sobiech, quien está detrás de esta hermosa canción, fue diagnosticado con cáncer de hueso Osteosarcoma y los médicos le dijeron que el cáncer se había extendido y que solo le quedaban unos meses de vida.
Luego grabó esta canción sobre su batalla contra el cáncer en respuesta a las predicciones de los médicos.

En esta canción, inspira a otros a aprovechar la oportunidad y aprovechar al máximo la vida tal como lo hizo mientras perseguía sus sueños musicales. Utilizó esta canción como un medio para despedirse de su familia y amigos y en la letra dice; “Si tan solo tuviera un poco más de tiempo contigo”, aquí refiriéndose a su novia, cantó sobre las cosas maravillosas que habrían hecho juntos si él tuviera la oportunidad de vivir. Realmente me conmueve y cada vez que escucho esta canción, me siento mal de que le haya tenido que pasar algo tan horrible.

Esta canción realmente me inspira a estar agradecido por la gran oportunidad que Dios me ha dado, ¡La Oportunidad de la Vida!

Ahora, realmente desearía poder tocar una guitarra para que mi versión suene mucho mejor, ¡pero realmente espero que lo disfruten! ❤️


LETRA

me caí abajo
A este agujero oscuro y solitario
Ya no había nadie que se preocupara por mí
Y necesitaba una forma de escalar y agarrarme del borde
Estabas sentado allí sosteniendo una cuerda

Y vamos a subir, subir, subir
Pero volaré un poco más alto
Subiremos a las nubes porque la vista es un poco mejor
Aquí arriba, querida
No pasará mucho tiempo ahora, no pasará mucho tiempo ahora

Y cuando volvamos a tierra
Bueno, nunca tendré mi oportunidad
Prepárate para vivir y me lo arrancarán de las manos y
Tal vez algún día demos un pequeño paseo
Subiremos, subiremos, subiremos y todo estará bien

Subiremos, subiremos, subiremos
Pero volaré un poco más alto
Sube a las nubes porque la vista es un poco mejor
Aquí arriba, querida

No pasará mucho tiempo ahora, no pasará mucho tiempo ahora
si solo
tuve un poco mas de tiempo

si solo
Tuve un poco más de tiempo contigo
Podríamos subir, subir, subir
Y toma ese pequeño paseo
Nos sentaremos allí tomados de la mano.
Y todo estará bien

Y tal vez algún día te vuelva a ver
Flotaremos en las nubes y nunca veremos el final
Subiremos, subiremos, subiremos
Pero volaré un poco más alto
Sube a las nubes porque la vista es un poco más agradable.
Aquí arriba, querida
No pasará mucho tiempo ahora, no pasará mucho tiempo ahora
