I would be presenting a Gospel Song titled: Jesus (You are Able) by Ada Ehi

The song meaning

Jesus (You are Able ) is a song that emphasize on the power of Jesus to be able to do everything, he is able to help, to deliver and save.
His name is the highest, and there is power in his name.

So for today, after so many deliberation on which song to sing for the Neoxian city talent and this was the song my soul chosed.

Here check out the lyrics;

"Jesus (You Are Able)"

What can't you do
Jesus

Creator of the universe
What can't you do
What can't you do
Jesus

Name above every other name
What can't you change
What can't you change
Jesus

Creator of the universe
What can't you do
What can't you do
Jesus

Name above every other name
What can't you change
What can't you change
Jesus

You are able
Great and mighty God
You are able, Jesus

There is nothing
Nothing you cannot do

Great and mighty God
I put my trust in you...
You are able, Jesus

Creator of the universe
What can't you do
What can't you do
Jesus

Name above every other name
What can't you change

My day started really well because a lot of Positive vibes and Joy, I had one of the best time in church today.

For this Week Creative Sunday: I will be presenting a praise medley, or praise song mashup, from a lot of Population Nigeria Gospel praise song, starting from the legendary worship song You are great by Steve crown, then Unimaginable and lastly: victory by Eden.

Praise songs are are always giving you that amazing feeling and energy to dance before God , David in the bible was a man that really made us understand that praise is a very powerful way to getting to God's heart, David is a Music minister and a king.
praising and Worshiping God is something I don't Joke With, as a choir Director in my church I always make sure my members Pray, Practice and Rehearse well before going to the altar, in short I love singing worship songs, I can just be on worship for the next 4 hours non stop but for praise my Energy and expression is very important.
After today's church, I just had that idea of making a lineup of praise and posting on Hive, that was what prompted me to make this video,
I hope you all enjoy❤️

For this week our Theme says Original Songs

The title of this My Original Song is : Take my Heart.

This is a Gospel song that expresses total surrender to the will of God, a heartfelt cry to God, for help to always heed to the will of God.
We need the Help of Holy spirit to Help us do the will of God, this is because sometimes our flesh is always weak to do God's will, even though our spirit is always willing.
The Bible Empathizes that it's not by Power or by Our Might but by the Spirit of God.

This is A song that expresses obedience to the leading of God. Many time to end up in the wrong paths because we are not under the direction of the spirit of God, but if we are being lead by the holy spirit we will never fail.
The song was recorded with a free instrumental from (tubidy dot mobi).

Here is the lyrics

Take my Heart and Make it Yours
Take my will and make it your own
Lord Everything, Belongs to you
And Every way that I go
Lord Lead Me to you

(Chorus)
I've trying to do it on my own
But I've been running in circles all along
Lord Lead Me, Right Now X2

I'm laying it down at your feet
Without holding into anything
Lead Me Right now

Take my Thoughts and Make it Yours
Take my Mind and Make it your own
Lord Everything, Belongs to you
And Every way that I go
Lord Lead Me to you

I've trying to do it on my own
But I've been running in circles all along
Lord Lead Me, Right Now X2

I'm laying it down at your feet
Without holding into anything
Lead Me Right now

Lead Me Right now

I hope You Enjoy and do have a great day

THANKS FOR WATCHING AND LISTENING, STAY BLESSED 🎄🎁⛄❤️

I remain Oluwadrey your humble singer, we are in festive season and Love is fully in the air, as usual Today I am super excited to share my creativity by presenting an amazing Afrobeat love song.

I will be doing a cover of the song Titled: ARIKE by Nigerian Afrobeat singer KUNMIE

Arike is a soft tempo and sweet melodious afrobeat song about two lovers.
The song for me is very emotional and a heartfelt love song that expresses profound affection and devotion to someone who is special to you. Taking a deeper dive at song, The song's title, "Arike," is a Yoruba name meaning "to cherish" or "to pamper" someone. The song lyrics expresses a deep longing to hear sweet words of love and cherish every expression of feelings between two madly-in-love individuals.

Personally I think the Artists, Kunmie's inspiration for "Arike" comes from a personal heartbreak or somewhat previous breakups this in turn makes the song a reflection of his emotions and a plea for reconciliation.
I got to know about the song from one of my friend in the office, the song was his ringtone, whenever the phone rings, I got to hear the song and I love it.

Here

I Got the Instrumental for this song ok n the website: Tubidy.com,
and also for the Sound Processing, i used my V8 Sound Card and For the Video Recording i used my Phone; Redmi Note 10 pro.

Thank You all for Viewing and Engaging, Do Have a great week❤️

I remain @Oluwadrey your ever humble song writer and singer, it's another Neoxian city Talent Hunt, i almost missed this one, I checked the recent announcement on the city discord, I have to get this done immediately,
First off I want to specially thank Mr Dragon for the Great opportunity and @samostically for initiating the platform.
As usual I will be showcasing my talent, which is singing.
Today I would be singing: Again by Wande-coal(Extended Version)

About this Song

Wande Coal's "Again" (extended version) is a song that expresses deep love and a desire for a second chance in a relationship, although this extended version is a follow up of the original song of the same name, it's a freestyle song that is used as the outro of the album.
This particular freestyle became popular on Tiktok and YouTube reels, in fact I got to know the song through a watching a video on YouTube.
I really love this version of the song, wande coal never fails to do his usual magic on songs.

Here is the lyrics:

I remain Oluwadrey your amazing singer, as usual, I will be blessing our ears with some amazing tunes.

Today I will be doing an acapella of a worship song titled: you are not a man by Eben and min Nathaniel Bassey

The song : "You're Not a Man" by Eben ft. Nathaniel Bassey is a powerful worship song that expresses our God's greatness and power.
God's way is different from that of man, He is far Above man in every ways.
The Bible recorded that God's Foolishness is Higher than Mans Wisdom,
His Mercies and Love Endure forever.

When you listen carefully to song, you can see that the lyrics was Highlighting the difference between God and humans, explaining that God is no way a limited being like humans but He is a divine being with unlimited power.

Reason why selected this song for my Creative Sunday Entry today.
I decided to sing this beautiful Christian worship song because, I am super grateful for life today.
One of my best friend did his wedding yesterday, it was so glorious.
I was super happy for Him, one beautiful thing about it was that, I was around to witness and experience His Memorable moments,
All My Friends from as far back as University days were all around, this are unforgettable times, this is because we had a get together that we have always hoped and Longed for.
Although I am far from home, but I honestly felt at home with them.
I had to select this song to worship God for Keeping everyone of Us.

I am Oluwadrey, Today I am super excited to share my creativity by presenting an amazing African tunes with you all this Sunday

For this beautiful Sunday, I will be doing a cover of the song Titled: Dull by Nigerian Afrobeat singer Asake

Dull is a song by Asake; personally I feel this song is an Hustler's anthem, the song is a Morale booster and Determination song for hustlers.
A song that was perfectly crafted and well sang by asake , in his sweet voice.
The song emphasizes never to be slack and dull in your endeavours and make sure to
It is a song that reminds you to Do better, Do Sharp, Be Smart. Enjoy your life, be your own star and don't let anyone bring you down.
This song was one of my favourite song from Asake's album(wanted), it was the intro for the Album.

Reason why selected this song for my Creative Sunday Entry today.

Honestly I picked this song just today after I came back from office this afternoon, i was listening to a worship song and then the next song shuffle to this One (Dull) 😂, it was a combo not related, was listening to Victory belong to Jesus and all of a sudden Asake's: dull was the next song.
I just downloaded the instrumentals and started working on the cover this evening.

The Instrumental for this song was downloaded from the website: Tubidy.com,
and also for the Sound Processing, i used my V8 Sound Card and For the Video Recording i used my Phone; Redmi Note 10 pro.

Thank You all for Viewing and Engaging, Do Have a great week

I amOluwadrey your humble singer, I'm super glad to be here again.

This is Hive open mic Week 294, our Theme for this week says : :Love at first sight.
For me I've always believed love is a beautiful thing and surely there can be love at first sight, although in this modern time all we can see from people is lust at first sight, people no longer go deep in love, or feel connections or chemistry that can last.
But still that doesn't stop me from believing you can actually meet someone, and with just you seeing them and maybe getting close to them , you feel that very spark and love at first sight.

This is why for this week, I will be presenting a very beautiful Love song ❤️, Titled: Love me like you do by Ellie Goulding

Love me like you do is a song the Deeply expresses the Theme of the week,
When we love people, we love them just as they are, and we build that so much connection that we long for each other everyday.

"Love Me Like You Do"

You're the light, you're the night
You're the colour of my blood
You're the cure, you're the pain
You're the only thing I wanna touch
Never knew that it could mean so much, so much

You're the fear, I don't care
'Cause I've never been so high
Follow me to the dark
Let me take you past our satellites
You can see the world you brought to life, to life

So love me like you do, la-la-love me like you do
Love me like you do, la-la-love me like you do
Touch me like you do, ta-ta-touch me like you do
What are you waiting for?

Fading in, fading out
On the edge of paradise
Every inch of your skin is a holy grail I've got to find
Only you can set my heart on fire, on fire
Yeah, I'll let you set the pace
'Cause I'm not thinking straight
My head's spinning around I can't see clear no more
What are you waiting for?

Love me like you do, la-la-love me like you do (like you do)
Love me like you do, la-la-love me like you do
Touch me like you do, ta-ta-touch me like you do
What are you waiting for?

Love me like you do, la-la-love me like you do (like you do)
Love me like you do, la-la-love me like you do (yeah)

What are you waiting for?

I'll let you set the pace
'Cause I'm not thinking straight
My head's spinning around I can't see clear no more
What are you waiting for?

Love me like you do, la-la-love me like you do (like you do)
Love me like you do, la-la-love me like you do (yeah)
Touch me like you do, ta-ta-touch me like you do
What are you waiting for?

Love me like you do, la-la-love me like you do (like you do)
Love me like you do, la-la-love me like you do (oh)

Feel Good is an afrobeat song from the late Nigerian Afrobeat singer Mohbad,
Mohbad has been a singer that sings a lot of songs that Nigerian relates with, this is because most of his song are relatable, the late Mohbad faced a lot of Hardship from his early life, even when he started gaining stardom, he has a lot of Songs like: Peace, K.P.K, EGWU ft Chile, Sorry, ask about Me,
Honestly He wasn't among my favourite until I heard of his Demise, He died and all of a Sudden His Fame arose in one of the most tragic ways, I listen to his songs and he became of my favourite afrobeat singer.

About the song.
The song expresses reminiscing our Moments in Life, making sure we enjoy every single moment in life, make sure you keep a positive mindset and stop worrying or thinking, it's just not worth it being depressed, celebrate your small wins.
This morning i was so tired even when i was supposed to church in the Early hours, work yesterday was very hectic, i was 5 minutes late, immediately i entered church, the praise and worship section was about to start, i never really know why but all through my time in church i was just full of Joy, regardless of the fact that Businesses hasn't been moving as usual, all i was doing was counting my blessings. after church i just drafted out plans for this new week again, i slept and Feel Good was the song that keeps coming to my mind for this Creative Sunday.

You shout it out, but I can't hear a word you say
I'm talking loud, not saying much
I'm criticized, but all your bullets ricochet
Shoot me down, but I get up

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away

You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium

Cut me down, but it's you who'll have further to fall
Ghost town and haunted love
Raise your voice, sticks and stones may break my bones
I'm talking loud, not saying much

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away

You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
I am titanium
I am titanium

Stone hard, machine gun
Firing at the ones who run
Stone hard, as bulletproof glass

You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium

Thank you all for listening 🎧 🎵❤️

Happy weekend to you all, I hope y'all enjoy your weekend
It has been a very busy week for me, or should I say monthly? I have some big event coming up this month, honestly I feel overwhelmed.
But just as my Dad will keep telling us, Focus and Consistency is the Key to success.
I have narrowed down my Target to the most impactful goal, now this is just what I am doing to keep my sh*t together.

I already had a plan to do a rap song for this week, Kauna Allah By Jeremiah Gyang and Skales but, I honestly didn't have time to practice the song, so I decided to Go with Ordinary people by John Legend.
John Legend is a singer I so much relates with, maybe because he sings in my vocal range and it's always feels good listening to his songs. He is actually one of my favourite Musician.
FOR TODAY'S HIVE LEARNER CREATIVE SUNDAY, I WILL BE PRESENTING: ORDINARY PEOPLE BY JOHN LEGEND

About the song:

Ordinary people is a soulful song About embracing our imperfections and weaknesses in Love, regardless of the situation we are still human, we make mistake, we fall, we fail some time.

In life itself we face several challenges, this also relates to Love, there are a lot of Ups and downs, we must all strive to make things work especially in Relationships and Marriage.
I think the song is trying to bring people to the reality of things, we are not in a fantasy world where everyone and everything is going smoothly.

We need patience, understanding and Endurance to navigate our Path in love.
This is why the song lyrics stressed Take it slow.

The song was written and performed by John legend in 2005, winning him the Best Male R&B Vocal performance at the Grammy Awards.

I hope you enjoyed it and stayed blessed 🙏
