Hello! I'm Ruel, your frustrated singer from Philippines. I had just finished taking a bath when I decided to make a quick cover of one of my favorite Adele Song, All I Ask.
I was sitting on the floor next to my bed with my bathroom open to get the "reverb" effect on my voice. This one is also tough to sing and sorry for a lot of notes that I've missed.
In case you're not familiar with this song, here's a performance from Adele herself.
Please don't raise your standards too high after watching the original though. There's no point of comparison actually. LOL! Interestingly, this song was co-written by Bruno Mars. Here's his version which is also one of my favorite covers of the song.
Lyrics
"All I Ask"
I will leave my heart at the door
I won't say a word
They've all been said before, you know
So why don't we just play pretend
Like we're not scared of what is coming next
Or scared of having nothing left
Look, don't get me wrong
I know there is no tomorrow
All I ask is
If this is my last night with you
Hold me like I'm more than just a friend
Give me a memory I can use
Take me by the hand while we do what lovers do
It matters how this ends
'Cause what if I never love again?
I don't need your honesty
It's already in your eyes
And I'm sure my eyes, they speak for me
No one knows me like you do
And since you're the only one that matters
Tell me who do I run to?
Look, don't get me wrong
I know there is no tomorrow
All I ask is
If this is my last night with you
Hold me like I'm more than just a friend
Give me a memory I can use
Take me by the hand while we do what lovers do
It matters how this ends
'Cause what if I never love again?
Let this be our lesson in love
Let this be the way we remember us
I don't wanna be cruel or vicious
And I ain't asking for forgiveness
All I ask is
If this is my last night with you
Hold me like I'm more than just a friend
Give me a memory I can use
Take me by the hand while we do what lovers do
It matters how this ends
'Cause what if I never love again?
Lastly, I'd like to acknowledge CoverspH for the instrumental as well as @pfunk and @luzcypher for creating Steemit Open Mic Weekly Competition.
I hope you enjoyed this and stay tuned for more piano and acoustic covers.
