COVER Request Contest Week 21! - Winner (50% post rewards in HP): @zakludick!

Hello everybody on HIVE, and especially the Music Community. My name is Jasper and I'm writing (and singing) to you from Cape Town, South Africa!

I am into the 21st week of this challenging series of posts I have set myself for Thursdays! BUT I Need your help to keep going please!

This is the challenge I'm setting myself every Thursday: I ask for cover song requests on the MUSIC community (make a comment on this post to take part by suggesting a song for me to try), and then I pick a favourite song to learn and post a live video of me attempting it. The person who asked for the winning song then gets 50% of the post rewards in HP! (If I pick a second song, that person gets 20% of the post rewards in HP as well!) It's as simple as that! (Well for everyone but me who then has to learn to sing and play new songs every week! Haha!)

Again, I got some lovely requests this week! Please, if I did not select your song, please try ask for it, or a new song, again!

Winning first place this week is Hive account@zakludick! This may seem like nepotism, because Zak is a friend of mine from Cape Town. He is actually the person who introduced me to HIVE and helped me to get started in April last year. I have been putting off the “nepotism”, but you know what? HIVE has been so great that maybe I should thank Hive account@zakludick with actually playing his (REPEATED) song request… and hopefully a couple of HP. Zak asked for “Stacy’s Mom” by Fountains of Wayne – which was a pretty funny, provocative song when we were kids! Here is the original version!

Congratulations Hive account@zakludick! You win 50% of this post's rewards in HP!

So now, for everybody else reading this, please take part! All you have to do is make a comment on this post with a suggestion for a cover song that you would like me to attempt next week. Give it a shot!!

Lyrics for "Stacy’s Mom" by Fountains of Wayne

Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
Stacy, can I come over after school?
(After school)
We can hang around by the pool
(Hang by the pool)
Did your mom get back from her business trip?
(Business trip)
Is she there, or is she trying to give me the slip?
(Give me the slip)
You know, I'm not the little boy that I used to be
I'm all grown up now
Baby, can't you see?
Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
She's all I want
And I've waited for so long
Stacy, can't you see?
You're just not the girl for me
I know it might be wrong but
I'm in love with Stacy's mom
Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
Stacy, do you remember when I mowed your lawn?
(Mowed your lawn)
Your mom came out with just a towel on
(Towel on)
I could tell she liked me from the way she stared
(The way she stared)
And the way she said
"You missed a spot over there"
(A spot over there)
And I know that you think it's just a fantasy
But since your dad walked out
Your mom could use a guy like me
Stacy's mom has got it goin' on
She's all I want
And I've waited for so long
Stacy, can't you see?
You're just not the girl for me
I know it might be wrong but
I'm in love with Stacy's mom
Stacy's mom has got it goin' on (she's got it going on)
She's all I want and I've waited for so long (waited and waited)
Stacy, can't you see?
You're just not the girl for me
I know it might be wrong
I'm in love with
Stacy's mom, oh, oh
(I'm in love with)
Stacy's mom, oh, oh
(Wait a minute)
Stacy, can't you see?
You're just not the girl for me
I know it might be wrong but
I'm in love with Stacy's mom
