Have you heard the song ”Don’t You Worry Child” by Swedish House Mafia? I think it’s a beautiful song. Although it’s about a young man talking about the first time he had his heart broken, the chorus of the song is the message that I take from it. The chorus says:
“Don’t you worry, don’t you worry child, Heaven’s got a plan for you.”
It’s such a wonderful message which to me says, sometimes we may spend time worrying or fretting about things and not understanding the things that life gives to us, but in the end, there is a plan for each of us. That’s something that I like to believe in.
I enjoyed watching the video on YouTube of this dance song with a strong beat, something you would hear if you went out to a club on a Saturday night. As I browsed all the videos that came up when I searched for this song, I found this very different version of the song, sung by Max Schneider (www.maxschneider.com). Max Schneider’s picture is posted above – I copied and pasted it from Google. The original video, by Swedish House Mafia, to me sounds upbeat and positive. I love it. But then I watched Max’s version and I felt like he really sang from the heart. His version is sung at a slower tempo, and there is just one instrument playing – a guitar. I find this version beautiful, haunting, and emotional.
Here is a link I found to the Max Schneider video on YouTube. I hope you enjoy it and that it speaks to you, as it does to me:
I’ve also discovered another inspiring version of the same song by Sam Tsui. This one features voice and piano.
Hope you enjoy this version as well. Here is the link:
