Song Ghost cover by Marina Mast in The Voice Germany 2016

I happened to come across this song while watching The Voice Germany. I do feel that the way Marina Mast sing similar to singer Anastacia Lyn Newkirk . Just loving the upbeat song melody. 

Song lyrics:

I keep going to the river to pray

'Cause I need something that can wash out the pain

And at most I'm sleeping all these demons away

But your ghost, the ghost of you

It keeps me awake

My friends had you figured out

Yeah, they saw what's inside of you

You tried hiding another you

But your evil was coming through

These eyes sitting on the wall

They watch every move I make

Bright light living in the shade

Your cold heart makes my spirit shake

I had to go through hell to prove I'm not insane

Had to meet the devil just to know his name

And that's when my love was burning

Yeah, it's still burning

[2x:]

I keep going to the river to pray

'Cause I need something that can wash out the pain

And at most I'm sleeping all these demons away

But your ghost, the ghost of you

It keeps me awake

Each time that I think you're gone

I turn around and you're creeping in

And I let you under my skin

Guess I love living in the sin

Oh you never told me

True love was gonna hurt

True pain I don't deserve

Truth is that I never learn

[2x:]

I keep going to the river to pray

'Cause I need something that can wash out the pain

And at most I'm sleeping all these demons away

But your ghost, the ghost of you

It keeps me awake

Give up the ghost

Give up the ghost

Give up the ghost

Stop the haunting baby

Give up the ghost

Give up the ghost

Give up the ghost

No more haunting baby

I keep going to the river

[2x:]

I keep going to the river to pray

'Cause I need something that can wash out the pain

And at most I'm sleeping all these demons away

But your ghost, the ghost of you

It keeps me awake

I also love the original version of this song.

The look of longan brazil fruits on my customer house compound after 4 years, 2 months, 14 days it is planted

Get video update of fruiting longan brazil plant from my customer last 16 June 2021. Basically it took exactly 4 years, 2 months, 14 days for the plant to start bear fruits. My customer very happy since the fruit is huge in size.

Below is the video from my customer. 

The plant received by my customer last 3 April 2017 [1].

I also have advised my customer accordingly steps that need to be taken for better fruiting next fruiting cycle. It is one of the after sales and services support that I always give to my customer. Among of them is I keep track the date I deliver the plant to them. As people tend to forget time they planted their plants.
