Greetings and good vibes to all this beautiful community of #vibes, it's wonderful to be here, and to be able to be part of this gigantic effort to bring together in the same space all the talent that converges daily in our little corner of the web3.

This week promises even more participation as more and more talents will be added, and if each of them invites someone else, this stage will surely be filled with colour.

For this second week I bring you a song that became a classic when it was played, it is Ben, a Michael Jackson single from 1972, which stayed at the top of the charts that same year, and even got an Oscar nomination from the academy.

And although my voice is much better, it is still affected by a very aggressive medical treatment I am currently undergoing, but I still dared to perform it.

It also helped me to dust off my English, which I had forgotten a lot.

I hope you like it.

Ben, the two of us need look no more. We both found what we were looking for With a friend to call my own I'll never be alone And you, my friend, will see You've got a friend in me. (You've got a friend in me).

***

Ben, you're always running here and there (here and there) You feel you're not wanted anywhere (anywhere)

***

If you ever look behind And don't like what you find There's something you should know You've got a place to go (You've got a place to go).

***

I used to say "I" and "me" Now it's "us", now it's "we" (I used to say "I" and "me") (Now it's "us", now it's "we")

***

Ben, most people would turn you away (turn you away) I don't listen to a word they say (a word they say) They don't see you as I do I wish they would try to I'm sure they'd think again If they had a friend like Ben.

***

(A friend) Like Ben (Like Ben) Like Ben.
