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

This is Week 65 of “The Singing Voice” or “La Voz Cantante” challenge! The aim of the game is to play a rock cover, or perhaps a cover of a genre that led to the formation of rock music.

I have done quite a lot of classic rock artists over the last few months, so I thought I should maybe try something a little bit more modern. My sister moved over to London and started working in music promotion. This meant that I got to find out about bands like Arcade Fire, Mumford & Sons and today’s band Kings of Leon a little bit sooner than most other people in South Africa!

After a few quite core albums that only cool people like my sister knew about, Kings of Leon hit the mainstream with hits in 2008. First there was “Sex on Fire” and then today’s song: “Use Somebody”!

Lyrics for “Use Somebody” by The Kings of Leon

I've been roamin' around, always lookin' down at all I see
Painted faces fill the places I can't reach
You know that I could use somebody
You know that I could use somebody
Someone like you and all you know and how you speak
Countless lovers under cover of the street
You know that I could use somebody
You know that I could use somebody
Someone like you
Off in the night, while you live it up, I'm off to sleep
Wagin' wars to shape the poet and the beat
I hope it's gonna make you notice
I hope it's gonna make you notice
Someone like me
Someone like me
Someone like me
Somebody
I'm ready now
I'm ready now
I'm ready now
I'm ready now
I'm ready now
I'm ready now
I'm ready now
Someone like you
Somebody
Someone like you
Somebody
Someone like you
Somebody
I've been roamin' around, always lookin' down at all I see

¡Hola a todos en Hive y especialmente a la Comunidad PukuMundo! ¡Mi nombre es Jasper y les escribo (y canto) desde Ciudad del Cabo, Sudáfrica!

¡Esta es la Semana 65 del desafío “La Voz Cantante” o “La Voz Cantante”! El objetivo del juego es tocar una versión de rock, o tal vez una versión de un género que condujo a la formación de la música rock.

He trabajado con bastantes artistas de rock clásico en los últimos meses, así que pensé que tal vez debería intentar algo un poco más moderno. Mi hermana se mudó a Londres y comenzó a trabajar en promoción musical. ¡Esto significó que me enteré de bandas como Arcade Fire, Mumford & Sons y la banda actual Kings of Leon un poco antes que la mayoría de las personas en Sudáfrica!

Después de algunos álbumes bastante importantes que solo conocían personas geniales como mi hermana, Kings of Leon llegó a la corriente principal con éxitos en 2008. Primero fue "Sex on Fire" y luego la canción de hoy: "Use Somebody".

Letra de "Use Somebody" de The Kings of Leon

He estado dando vueltas, siempre mirando hacia abajo todo lo que veo
Caras pintadas llenan los lugares que no puedo alcanzar
Usted sabe que yo podría usar a alguien
Usted sabe que yo podría usar a alguien
Alguien como tú y todo lo que sabes y cómo hablas
Innumerables amantes al amparo de la calle
Usted sabe que yo podría usar a alguien
Usted sabe que yo podría usar a alguien
Alguien como tu
Fuera en la noche, mientras lo vives, me voy a dormir
Wagin' guerras para dar forma al poeta y el ritmo
espero que te haga notar
espero que te haga notar
Alguien como yo
Alguien como yo
Alguien como yo
Alguien
estoy listo ahora
estoy listo ahora
estoy listo ahora
estoy listo ahora
estoy listo ahora
estoy listo ahora
estoy listo ahora
Alguien como tu
Alguien
Alguien como tu
Alguien
Alguien como tu
Alguien
He estado dando vueltas, siempre mirando hacia abajo todo lo que veo

Wow that's good to know. The whales do appear around winter for breeding in the beautiful bay, as the Portuguese originally named it.

Hello! I'm confused - do you mean "The Singing Voice / La Voz Cantante" challenge won't continue at all... Or that our posts just won't get as high post rewards if we continue to take part?

Cape Town is very beautiful! My main other topic besides music is when I go surfing around the various beautiful spots on our coast...

I'm glad you liked it - the original singer has a very unique voice - I wonder if you'd like it...

It's probably as mainstream-sounding as the band ever got, but you still can't get away from the singer's very unique voice!
