Entry from Blind Spot in Nur Ein XVIII.

Hand percussion

LyricsShow lyrics

Okay so this song is kind of about learning things the hard way/how you often can’t understand the most fucked up things that have happened to you until much much later.

Knocking on the uke for my hand percussion, I really hope it counts 🥴 it took me so many takes to get one mostly right HAHA but it was fun to do 😌 💕 ✨

*BLIND SPOT

Take it back, what you said;
it still lives rent free in my head

Looking back, I blame me
for wasting away in this bed you made

Why am I the one who has to live this way?
Why are you the one who gets to walk away?

Look me in the eye and tell me I’m a liar
I did not sign up for this and I am fucking tired
of wishing I could hit rewind to see a little clearer
cause if I could I know I would have checked the rear view mirror

“I’m so glad that you’ve changed!”
And you wonder why I’m filled with shame

Why am I the one who has to live this way?
Why are you the one who gets to walk away?

Look me in the eye and tell me I’m a liar
I did not sign up for this and I am fucking tired
of wishing I could hit rewind to see a little clearer
cause if I could I know I would have checked the rear view mirror

Take it back, what you said
Take it back
Take it back
Take it back

Look me in the eye and tell me I’m a liar
I did not sign up for this and I am fucking tired
of wishing I could hit rewind to see a little clearer
cause if I could I know I would have checked the rear view mirror
Yeah, if I could I know I would have checked the rear view mirror*

the ukulele-taps are a pretty shaky take on the challenge, but I like the song a lot and your voice sounds great. Especially pleased that you get both syllables into "mirror", to my British ears it always sounds weird when people say "mirrr" (naming no names) so I appreciated that, haha. Good lyric, emotive delivery.

G&U. I think it's hard for me to hear the section changes when there is only one instrument & vocal. Especially when the strumming pattern stays pretty much the same. I do like the passion and vocal performance. I wish you could find a way to multitrack so that you could focus on your backing track/s more. I do appreciate your one take live performance, though I wish it was half as long.
