Hello #openmic community friends, I'm @samuelstifen. Welcome back to all who have participated in this Open Mic Hive event. Hopefully our performance can bring warmth to everyone, including me. Today we have entered week 216 of the Open Mic event.
For Hive Open Mic 216, the theme is: "Pop Ballads," chosen by: @marifi .
Pop ballads are a music genre that is very popular among music listeners. But I don't understand why I like this music genre so much.
In my opinion, pop ballads are a music genre that is very emotional and full of meaning. Songs in this genre often deal with themes of love, loss, happiness, sadness, and other emotional journeys. Pop ballad music is often dominated by beautiful melodies, deep lyrics, and strong vocals.
One of the main attractions of this genre is its ability to touch the listeners' feelings deeply. Pop ballads are often able to create an emotional bond between the singer and the listener, making the listener feel every word and note with great intensity.
I hope my performance can provide an extraordinary performance for the listeners here.
and for this week with the theme "pop ballads", I brought a song entitled you're still the one which was popularized by Shania Twain. A Canadian singer who is extraordinary in singing and has a very advanced career.

This song tells about love that survives despite all obstacles and trials. This song was created from the singer's personal story. The beginning of this song was inspired by criticism made by the media on Twain and Lange's relationship in the mid-1990s. There was criticism of their relationship: the statement that extreme differences and Twain used Lange only to advance his career. Basically, critics don't expect their relationship to survive. Twain did not agree with these criticisms and wanted to address them publicly which led to him writing this song. In this song, for the union between him and Lange, Twain explains how he was glad they did not listen to critics, as if they did, seeing what obstacles they could have removed. Unfortunately, in the end Twain and Lange divorced ten years later in 2008 after 14 years of marriage due to an affair between Twain and his best friend. And this song was released on January 16 1998.
and maybe that's all I can say regarding the theme and explanation of the songs I performed this week, and thank you to openmic and the team for organizing this event. for giving a lot of his free time to this event. Hopefully this event will run smoothly and continue to be successful. Maybe that's all I can say, I say thank you
LYRICH-YOU'RE STILL THE ONE
Mm, yeah
Looks like we made it
Look how far we've come my baby
We mighta took the long way
We knew we'd get there someday
They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together, still going strong
(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss goodnight
Ain't nothing better
We beat the odds together
I'm glad we didn't listen
Look at what we would be missing
They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together, still going strong
(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss goodnight
You're still the one
(Yeah, you're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(Ooh, you're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss goodnight
