Sonic Groove Live, Week 18

Welcome, 2020!

Here we are in a brand new decade – so fresh and full or promise. I'd say we're off to a wonderful start!

I trust you'll enjoy these entries as much as I did!

First

Hive account@orlandogonzalez • 'Hay Sueños Que Duermen En El Tiempo' (Original)

Absolutely gorgeous – from the wonderfully unexpected surprise of you playing flute to Esther's sweet harmonies, I loved every moment. I know the nearly indescribable emotion of which you sing; some call it saudade. Hard to find words for, yet such a deeply human experience.

Second

Hive account@minuetoacademy • 'Juan 16, 33' (Original)

Such an beautifully evocative piece, evoking so much visceral imagery; slow-motion running through a forest, dappled sunlight on smiling face, framed by strands of hair in the wind – the perfect soundtrack for a victorious moment – the final scene in a heroine's journey.

Third

Hive account@edwardstobia • 'Propósito // Purpose' (Original)

Such a melancholy song, full of sincere longing – the aching croon of unrequited love. I hope whomever you wrote this for knows the depth of your heart. <3

Fourth

Hive account@davidsuarezms • 'Volar' (Original Composition on Guitar)

Stunning composition, as always. I so appreciate your elegant, percussive style. :) ^{The cameo of woman and dog behind you halfway through the video made me laugh – nice reminder that life keeps moving around us, even during our quietest, most introspective moments.}
