Steemit Open Mic Week 83 Flame An Original Song About The Contradictions Of Love Photo Shoot --- by
Would love to hear your music in some cinematic scores. Your angelic and ethereal voice is matched by few, and you truly have the gift to story tell and create poetic pockets of melodic mystery and awe. The entire song has a wondrous feel and ambience to it, majestically tuned for another realm. The verses are well woven together as spider gossamer and the catchy, flowing chorus sticks to the brain just as web efficiently does. Your ebb and flow style between reality and dream state is encompassing an entire musical experience that envelops us listeners in a lingering reflection. Everything about this entry is elegant as it is subtlety refined to deliver the message of the complexities and intricacies of love. Thank you for sharing your original other-worldly gem, this entire creation is definitely euphonic. Looking forward to what you perform next. -
Mesmerizing performance! Melted my heart and and gave me chill bumps listening to your voice. -
It is truly amazing what Priscilla is able to produce here in one take, with just her piano! “Flame” is a magically enchantingly poetic song about the many contradictions of love, which has been lovingly resurrected from a time long ago when she first penned it. Well, thank goodness Priscilla decided to dust this one off. She revisits this composition with such a haunting heartfelt tenderness; it quickly becomes apparent that its rebirth is a beautiful gift to us all. Thank you, Priscilla! -
I don't remember exactly when I stopped believing in magic. I suspect I must have been a teenager, somehow someway I would always figure out all the tricks and thus the illusion was broken for ever. That is until a fairy found this platform, started not only to share her beautiful soul with us, but her amazing magical voice.* -
Every time I hear your music it just takes me on magical journeys I never want to end, you have impeccable talents lovely - your playing is divine and your vocals are perfection, so what more can I ask for? -

Steemit OpenMic Week 83 - Break Out The Crazy - Pause Rewind (Original Song) --- by
The quality of all your entries is just amazing. Point blank period, I feel like I am at a highly professional live performance concert and you two deserve all the praise and acknowledgements for your hard work, perseverance and display of utterly passionate craft. Your song is a serious testament to love and romance and your melodies and harmonies are impeccably smooth and riveting with soul. I really enjoyed the structuring of you both singing the verses and choruses individually like a dialogue that takes place between two concerned and caring lovers and then you intertwine towards the latter half of the song in sync chemistry. You are consistently impressive each week you join and inspire many of us with your gifts of music. Thank you for another original gem, I, for one, am awaiting your EP and wish you nothing but more success and the best. Looking forward to your next entry. -
What I'm about to say is going to make absolutely no sense to anyone else but me. This song makes me so angry, so angry I want to throw my computer out the window. Its so beautiful, its so catchy, the lyrics are so brilliant I can't believe I'm lucky enough to be listening to this for the tenth time (as I'm writing this). This song ladies and gents, this is up there with the tunes that transcend generations. OMG... I'm so angry.... I'm so inspired.
If you have not heard it, you are robbing yourself from the opportunity to surrender to emotions... click it, click it now... don't wait, put the phone on silence.... -
This song lives up to its name because I kept hitting the rewind on this track over and over again. You really know how to craft a song and deliver it. Awesome guys! -
3rd Place
Steemit Open Mic Week 83 - Jaume Pradas - Durmiéndome --- by
As out-of-this-world talented as
and
are along with their never-ending cohort of phenomenal artists, one of the most beautiful things about all of them is that each of them seems truly down-to-earth and authentically grounded! This week, they called upon a friend of theirs, Juame Pradas, to join them in yet another impassioned display of musical brilliance and artistry. This trio’s performance of “Durmiendome” is infectious, full, tight, moving, and simply amazing for a three-piece acoustic act! -
*The creative powerhouse from the land of the Lusitans is not ready to slow down, not in the slightest and for this week's entry they have recruited an exquisitely talented singer/percussionist from the land to the west. I absolutely loved the performance guys, the groove was right in the pocket where it belongs and the vocals shined with ease. -
Fantastic performance guys! Keep bringing your friends here. Every one of them have been so talented. Love it! -
Without fail, you extremely talented guys,

Steemit OpenMic Week 83 🎼//Enya - May it be//🔥 LOTR soundtrack cover --- by
I may be a tiny biased with this choice since I love this song already quite enough. To my defense I will say that
not only performed it to a degree that can warm even a vampire's heart, but the violin playing had so much emotion that It spoke just as loud as her gorgeous vocals. -
Wow! Great performance! You really made me feel this one and looked good doing it! Love everything you have brought to the community so far and look forward to hearing what you do next. -
You chose one hell of a song this week and you totally did it justice lovely, what an amazing rendition of this complex and textured song - your vocals were just spot on and captured the intensity desired perfectly.
When you bring in the violin I just fell for this performance, the combination of singing stunningly and playing a violin beautifully just blew me away. -
5th Place
Steemit Open Mic Week 83 Staying Alive Bee Gees Version Openmic By Luzcypher And Pfunk --- by
*What an absolutely brilliant performance from all of you, seriously I just couldn't stop my head bopping along as you guys smashed it out!
You all did such a sublime job it was thoroughly enjoyable to watch and hear, you made the music fill the sound so completely there was never a dull moment - the combination of instruments was utter perfection and bought everything together with sublime precision.* -
You guys were completely entertaining on this performance. Great song and not easy to pull off but you did it! So much fun you did this as a family too. Love it! -
