There were a million and one songs I thought to perform for 'Emotion', it was hard settling for one. Then I watched @sleemfit's performance of Stay With Me by Sam Smith, I loved it so much and got reminded of how much I like this song. I played it on my phone and then I found Stay by Rihanna next to it.

My mind was made up instantly! I was going to sing Stay by Rihanna. This song meant a lot to me in those times when I first dabbled into relating with the opposite sex. There were a lot of mixed signals and uncertainties, it was hard finding clarity at such a young age and emotions were all over the place.

This song perfectly describes my situationships, as a fresh 18-year-old in the dating scene, my heart on my sleeve, gentle and afraid, but willing to explore my deep feelings.

I really enjoyed singing this especially because I was standing and could project my voice better. I hope you like it!

LYRICS

All along it was a fever
A cold sweat, hot headed believer
I threw my hands in the air, said, "Show me something"
He said, "If you dare, come a little closer"

Round and around and around and around we go
Oh, now tell me now, tell me now, tell me now you know

Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you
It takes me all the way
I want you to stay

It's not much of a life you're living
It's not just something you take, it's given

Round and around and around and around we go
Oh, now tell me now, tell me now, tell me now you know

Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you
It takes me all the way
And I want you to stay

Ooh, the reason I hold on
Ooh, 'cause I need this hole gone
Well, funny you're the broken one
But I'm the only one who needed saving
'Cause when you never see the light
It's hard to know which one of us is caving

Not really sure how to feel about it
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you
It takes me all the way
I want you to stay
Stay
I want you to stay
Ooh
