Hey loves,
Today I thought of doing representing this theme with a duet. Coincidentally, a talented friend of mine was in town and the timing was perfect. My interpretation of this week’s theme reflects two or more souls having a connection either through a friendship, a relationship, an idea, a belief, a concept, an initiative, a love story, etc.

These things bond and unite souls together. When our souls touch, we share a deeper connection through those things that draw us closer. For instance, in this community, music is that thing that promotes our souls touching one another. It is indeed a heartfelt experience that bonds and unifies people across borders regardless of diversity in cultures, race, gender, and so on.

I chose “Hallelujah by Alexander Burke” for this week’s theme as I love the melody, mini call and response, and the way the artists carried this song, the emotions, the pitches, the voice control, and the adlibs.

My interpretation of this song is that of a love story about how the man in the song sees this particular woman that he desires and he gets weak in the knees with her. This feeling he gets brings about the expression of joy and appreciation in which he uses the term Hallelujah.

The last verse is talking about how he will do everything to be with her, even if it means getting rid of someone who gets in the way of their love. He tells her about what he has been through and that love is not always a victory march. It could make you feel cold and broken.

Hallelujah to him comes from a place where it’s cold and broken. It’s a cry at night before you see the light. Music is how he expresses those feelings and connects with the divine. Music has a special kind of place in King David’s life and he has amused many with his talent. That’s what “David” means here. Words are great ways to communicate and music is a great way to speak to your soul.

In line with the theme ”Tocando Almas” meaning “Touching Souls”, my friend and I decided to play around with this song and have fun while doing it. We tried to make it our own and connect over its lyrics. Without further ado, let’s dive right into the video. As always, thank you for tuning in and being a part of my journey!

Genre: Soul

Lyrics of Hallelujah by Alexander Burke
I heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the lord
But you don't really care for music, do ya?
Well it goes like this, the fourth, the fifth
The minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you to her kitchen chair
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya
And it's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not someone who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

Hallelujah
(Hallelujah) hallelujah
(Hallelujah) hallelujah
(Hallelujah) hallelujah
(Hallelujah) hallelujah
(Hallelujah) hallelujah
(Hallelujah) hallelujah
(Hallelujah) hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Hola amores,
Hoy pensé en hacer representando este tema con un dúo. Casualmente, un talentoso amigo mío estaba en la ciudad y el momento era perfecto. Mi interpretación del tema de esta semana refleja que dos o más almas tienen una conexión ya sea a través de una amistad, una relación, una idea, una creencia, un concepto, una iniciativa, una historia de amor, etc.

Estas cosas vinculan y unen a las almas. Cuando nuestras almas se tocan, compartimos una conexión más profunda a través de esas cosas que nos acercan. Por ejemplo, en esta comunidad, la música es lo que promueve que nuestras almas se toquen. Es una experiencia sincera que vincula y unifica a las personas más allá de las fronteras, independientemente de la diversidad de culturas, raza, género, etc.

He elegido "Aleluya de Alexander Burke", para el tema de esta semana porque me encanta la melodía, la mini llamada y la respuesta, y la forma en que los artistas interpretan esta canción, las emociones, los tonos, el control de la voz y los adlibs.

Mi interpretación de esta canción es la de una historia de amor sobre cómo el hombre de la canción ve a esta mujer en particular que desea y se le debilitan las rodillas con ella. Este sentimiento le lleva a la expresión de alegría y agradecimiento en la que utiliza el término Aleluya.

image00006 (7).jpeg

El último verso habla de cómo hará todo lo posible para estar con ella, incluso si eso significa deshacerse de alguien que se interpone en su amor. Le habla de lo que ha pasado y de que el amor no siempre es una marcha de la victoria. Puede hacer que te sientas frío y roto.

El aleluya para él viene de un lugar en el que está frío y roto. Es un llanto en la noche antes de ver la luz. La música es la forma en que expresa esos sentimientos y conecta con lo divino. La música ocupa un lugar especial en la vida del rey David y ha divertido a muchos con su talento. Eso es lo que significa "David" aquí. Las palabras son una gran forma de comunicarse y la música es una gran forma de hablarle al alma.

En línea con el tema "Touching Souls" que significa "Tocando Almas", mi amigo y yo decidimos jugar con esta canción y divertirnos mientras lo hacíamos. Intentamos hacerla nuestra y conectar con su letra. Sin más preámbulos, vamos a sumergirnos en el vídeo. Como siempre, ¡gracias por sintonizar y ser parte de mi viaje!

Literatura de Aleluya de Alexander Burke
He oído que había un acorde secreto
Que David tocó, y que agradó al señor
Pero a ti no te interesa la música, ¿verdad?
Pues va así, la cuarta, la quinta
La caída menor y la elevación mayor
El rey desconcertado componiendo el aleluya

Aleluya
Hallelujah
Aleluya
Aleluya

Tu fe era fuerte pero necesitabas pruebas
La viste bañándose en el tejado
Su belleza y la luz de la luna te sobrecogieron
Te ató a la silla de su cocina
Rompió tu trono y te cortó el pelo
Y de tus labios sacó el aleluya

Aleluya
Aleluya
Aleluya
Aleluya

Quizás haya un Dios en lo alto
Pero todo lo que he aprendido del amor
Fue cómo disparar a alguien que te superó
Y no es un grito lo que escuchas por la noche
No es alguien que ha visto la luz
Es un frío y es un aleluya roto

Aleluya
(Aleluya) aleluya
(Aleluya) aleluya
(Aleluya) aleluya
(Aleluya) aleluya
(Aleluya) aleluya
(Aleluya) aleluya
(Aleluya) aleluya
Aleluya
Aleluya

Last I checked he was but I’ll confirm for the sake of all parties interested 🤣 😂

Please confirm, I am taking consensus for single handsome men.

😂 He said he is taken 😂

We will untake him 😆
Abeg na joke before person beat me.

It’s the way you shoot your shot and quickly went to pick up the bullet and runaway for me 🤣🤣🤣

So cute ☺️

My mans is in these streets 😆

Funny i could have sworn i saw him on Eligible Young Bachelors for the Taking magazine.

Is he really taken? That smile is something else. 🤧

😂😂😂
He is...
But I will let him know of your kind words 👌👌

Awesome duet. I've hyped you plenty already so let's focus on the brother. The man can singggggg...

I will send word across immediately 😂😂😂

I want that cotton candy in human form... 😐

He must hear 😂😂😂😂

This is brilliant how do iget involved from the 🇬🇧

Just make a video of you singing, post it, and engage with people.

Gonna lace you up.

Imagine doing three 1min vids a day, uploading on 3speak, of you spitting bars, or freestyling. Easy content.

Or you could do vlogs about your daily life, struggles of an artist, where you are going to perform today, etc.

Or you could write articles in the short fiction community here called INKWELL.

Or you could do short vids on behind the scenes work in progress, you creating beats, you rehearsing for a tune (and bloopers lol). People love this shit.

Or if you're like me into "conspiracy theory" (i hate that term, it was a term created by the CIA) stuffs, or not easy to digest topics, i would say follow the DEEP DIVES community and post your videos (via 3speak.tv, choosing DEEP DIVES as your primary community) or articles (via peakd front end) there.

I tell you bro you can be the first of your kind here, like me. I'm one o the very very few active magicians on here, with live performances and videos on magic, sleight of hand, card tricks etc.

I've got a really good friend from Nottingham, who's a street artist. Obi Rudo. Highly successful in the busking scene. I have been tryin to get him onto HIVE but his earnings on the busking scene too good lol, keeping him away from here. So in this sense you have yourself a headstart.

Halleluyah!! This is awesome💕

I love your friend's voice. His voice is so calm and sweet. Your voice split too blends well.

Amazing song choice. I enjoyed listening to every bit of your music.

Much love😍

Oh he is such a delight to sing with.
He is indeed a really good singer…

Your words are so kind.
Thank you so much 😊

wow, this is so wonderful. The harmony of you guy's voices is superb. You gat to wax an album babe @peaq

You are always gassing me up
I am super grateful

Thanks a bunch man!😊😊😊
You never know what might just happen in ref to the album 💿

"You never know what might just happen in ref to the album 💿"

That's the more reason why you should launch an album. I know you guys will definitely trend worldwide😀

Thank you so much for the motivation.
Let’s see how things pan out and hope for the best.

Fingers crossed 🤞

and don't forget to pay your tithe to me once you start. lol😀

But you're not the first person to motivate me in this direction though 😂😂😂
You are an added voice of course...👌👌

Only that, by the time I start paying tithe from the first motivation I got, the money would have finished before I get to you😉😉

Lol 😆, ok I've given up.
