Hello everybody on Hive and especially the Hive Open Mic Community! My name is Jasper and I'm writing (and singing) to you from Cape Town in South Africa!

Welcome to Week 196 of the Hive Open Mic Challenge. The theme for this week is “Tus Luces Sobre Mi”, which means “Your Lights on Me” in English!

For those of you who don’t know, I’ve decided to alter my Three Tune Tuesday posts to be based around the Hive Open Mic theme of the week, and how I would go about tackling it. If you are wanting to take part this week, but need some help interpreting what kind of songs would suit the theme, please go check out my post here:

https://ecency.com/hive-193816/@jasperdick/music-three-tune-tuesday-137

In the post above, I made three recommendations for songs that would suit the theme:

• “Whenever God Shines His Light on Me” by Van Morrison & Cliff Richards (but I’ve actually done this one before!)
• “You are my Sunshine” Traditional, but I shared the Johnny Cash version…
• “Shine” by Collective Soul

Of those three, this is the second time in three weeks that I have chosen to take the 1990s nostalgia trip of trying to cover Collective Soul! Two weeks ago I tackled their song “December” for the theme “End of December” and now I realise that their most famous song “Shine”, with its lines of “Oh, Heaven Let Your Light Shine Down” and “Heaven’s Little Light Gonna Shine on Me” is the perfect 1990s rock song to match the theme this week!

Here is the original:

I can’t sing as high as Ed Roland, so I had to simplify the guitar part because of my capo high on the neck, but let me give it a shot!

PS: I’ve just started a series of tribute posts to famous musicians and songwriters that passed away in 2023. Please check out the first post here: https://ecency.com/hive-193816/@jasperdick/hcubehfg and the second post here https://ecency.com/hive-193816/@jasperdick/cvxkndmg

Lyrics for “Shine” by Collective Soul

Give me a word,
Give me a sign.
Show me where to look,
Tell me what will I find?
What will I find?

Lay me on the ground,
Or fly me in the sky.
Show me where to look,
Tell me what will I find?
What will I find?

Whoa, heaven let your light shine down
Whoa, heaven let your light shine down
Whoa, heaven let your light shine down
Whoa, heaven let your light shine down

Love is in the water,
Love is in the air.
Show me where to look,
Tell me will love be there?
Love be there?

Teach me how to speak,
Teach me how to share.
Teach me where to go,
Tell me will love be there?
Love be there?

Whoa, heaven let your light shine down
Whoa, heaven let your light shine down
Whoa, heaven let your light shine down
Whoa, heaven let your light shine down

Give me a word,
Give me a sign.
Show me where to look,
Tell me what will I find?
What will I find?

Lay me on the ground,
Or fly me in the sky.
Show me where to look,
Tell me what will I find?
What will I find?

Whoa, heaven let your light shine down
Whoa, heaven let your light shine down
Whoa, heaven let your light shine down
Whoa, heaven let your light shine down

I'm gonna let it shine
I'm gonna let it shine
Heaven's little light, gonna shine on me
O Hey yeah, hey yeah
Heaven's little light, shine on me

(Shine) Shine on me
(Shine) C'mon and shine

¡Hola a todos en Hive y especialmente a la comunidad Hive Open Mic! ¡Mi nombre es Jasper y les escribo (y canto) desde Ciudad del Cabo en Sudáfrica!

Bienvenido a la Semana 196 del Hive Open Mic Challenge. ¡El tema de esta semana es “Tus Luces Sobre Mi”, que significa “Tus Luces Sobre Mi” en inglés!

*** Para aquellos de ustedes que no lo saben, he decidido modificar mis publicaciones de Three Tune Tuesday para basarlas en el tema de la semana de Hive Open Mic y en cómo abordarlo. Si deseas participar esta semana, pero necesitas ayuda para interpretar qué tipo de canciones se adaptarían al tema, consulta mi publicación aquí:***

https://ecency.com/hive-193816/@jasperdick/music-tres-tune-tuesday-137

En la publicación anterior, hice tres recomendaciones de canciones que se adaptarían al tema:

• “Whenever God Shines His Light on Me” de Van Morrison y Cliff Richards (¡pero ya he hecho este antes!)
• “You are my Sunshine” Tradicional, pero compartí la versión de Johnny Cash…
• “Shine” de Collective Soul

De esos tres, esta es la segunda vez en tres semanas que elijo hacer el viaje de nostalgia de los 90 al intentar cubrir Collective Soul. Hace dos semanas abordé su canción “December” para el tema “End of December” y ahora me doy cuenta de que su canción más famosa “Shine”, con sus líneas de “Oh, Heaven Let Your Light Shine Down” y “Heaven's Little Light”. ¡Gonna Shine on Me” es la canción de rock de los 90 perfecta para combinar con el tema de esta semana!

Aquí está el original:

No puedo cantar tan alto como Ed Roland, así que tuve que simplificar la parte de la guitarra debido a mi cejilla en lo alto del mástil, ¡pero déjame intentarlo!

PD: Acabo de comenzar una serie de publicaciones en homenaje a músicos y compositores famosos que fallecieron en 2023. Consulte la primera publicación aquí: https://ecency.com/hive-193816/@jasperdick/hcubehfg y la segunda publicación aquí https://ecency.com/hive-193816/@jasperdick/cvxkndmg

Letra de “Shine” de Collective Soul

Dame una palabra,
Dame una señal.
Muéstrame dónde mirar,
Dime ¿qué encontraré?
¿Qué encontraré?

Ponme en el suelo,
O volarme en el cielo.
Muéstrame dónde mirar,
Dime ¿qué encontraré?
¿Qué encontraré?

Whoa, el cielo deja que tu luz brille
Whoa, el cielo deja que tu luz brille
Whoa, el cielo deja que tu luz brille
Whoa, el cielo deja que tu luz brille

El amor está en el agua,
El amor está en el aire.
Muéstrame dónde mirar,
Dime, ¿el amor estará allí?
¿Te encanta estar ahí?

Enséñame a hablar,
Enséñame a compartir.
Enséñame a dónde ir,
Dime, ¿el amor estará allí?
¿Te encanta estar ahí?

Whoa, el cielo deja que tu luz brille
Whoa, el cielo deja que tu luz brille
Whoa, el cielo deja que tu luz brille
Whoa, el cielo deja que tu luz brille

Dame una palabra,
Dame una señal.
Muéstrame dónde mirar,
Dime ¿qué encontraré?
¿Qué encontraré?

Ponme en el suelo,
O volarme en el cielo.
Muéstrame dónde mirar,
Dime ¿qué encontraré?
¿Qué encontraré?

Whoa, el cielo deja que tu luz brille
Whoa, el cielo deja que tu luz brille
Whoa, el cielo deja que tu luz brille
Whoa, el cielo deja que tu luz brille

voy a dejar que brille
voy a dejar que brille
La pequeña luz del cielo brillará sobre mí.
Oye, sí, oye, sí.
La pequeña luz del cielo, brilla sobre mí.

(Brilla) Brilla sobre mí
(Brillo) Vamos y brilla
