Unchained Melody ||| Melodía desencadenada

One commitment I have made to myself is not to miss the Hive Open Mic every week, an event led by @cabelindsay, who has done a spectacular job in keeping it up and which has an excellent response in every new call.

For those who enjoy listening to me sing in English, today I bring another of those "few" songs I do in that language, a classic that has broken all geographical and time boundaries. Composed in 1955, the music is by Alex North and the lyrics by Hy Zareth. It has served as the main theme for two films ("Unchained" (1955) and "Ghost" 1990) and has been recorded countless times, including artists as varied as Neil Diamod, The Platters, Elvis Presley and U2.

Today I bring you this version accompanied by venezuelan cuatro (although this is a modern version of the instrument) and voice, which I hope will be to everyone's liking.

Un compromiso que he hecho conmigo mismo es no faltar a la cita del Hive Open Mic cada semana, evento liderizado por @cabelindsay, quien ha hecho un trabajo espectacular en mantenerlo y que tiene una excelente respuesta en cada nueva convocatoria.

Para aquellos que disfrutan escucharme cantar en inglés, hoy traigo otra de esas “pocas” canciones que hago en ese idioma, un clásico que ha roto todas las fronteras geográficas y de tiempo. Compuesta en 1955, la música corresponde a Alex North y la letra a Hy Zareth. Ha servido de tema principal a dos películas (“Unchained” (1955) y “Ghost” 1990) y ha sido grabada incontables veces, incluyendo a artistas tan variados como Neil Diamod, Los Platters, Elvis Presley y U2.

Hoy les traigo esta versión acompañada con cuatro venezolano) aunque esta es una versión moderna del instrumento) y voz, que espero que sea del agrado de todos.

English lyrics | Letra en inglés

Oh, my love, my darling
I've hungered for your touch
A long, lonely time
Time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine?
I need your love
I need your love
God speed your love to me

Lonely rivers flow
To the sea, to the sea
To the open arms of the sea
Lonely rivers sigh
"Wait for me, wait for me"
I'll be coming home, wait for me

Oh, my love, my darling
I've hungered, for your touch
A long, lonely time
Time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine?
I need your love
I need your love
God speed your love to me
