AFRI-TUNES WEEK 83 || YOU COVER ME

avatar
(Edited)


Hi Everyone!

It has been a while here, and I must say I didn't know whether to share this video or not but I was encouraged by @nkemakonam89 to publish this video.

I played over the song "You Cover Me" by Abbey Ojomu and choir. I love the song as it touches my soul. It is a Christian song that has a lot of space for guitar drive.

I was initially playing over the song without recording myself, then I thought I should do so since it had been a while since I made a guitar video, and I don't even get to play my guitar during the week except during church programmes.

Why I had mixed feelings over this recording was because I did not have my lighting with me, and I had to use my Android to record, which has a lesser quality camera. I didn't like the video output, so I hesitated to share this video.

During the course of the video, a funny thing happened. I know the video is quite long, but you will notice when you are almost at the 4th minute of the video.

You can find access to the lyrics of the song here

I don’t really know that guitar is sweet like this oo. You were just going smoothly until nepa decided to act like a devil

You are good at this o, looks like you have improved a lot to me or maybe it is just me who didn’t pay attention to your previous ones or it is just the song.

I was thinking you were going to sing though.. hehe.

It is because you think like that. Guitars you use your two hands to play, regardless of how they shape it, you can learn them. I know a left-handed guitarist who plays the normal right-hand guitar, and he is one of the top guitarists in Nigeria.

Since both hands are in play, you learn with both hands.

Michael Okojie, go check on the guy.
