I hope your week was fun, exciting, productive, joyful and music filled like mine, wherever you find yourself on this magical spinning lump of rock that we all call home.
Tuesday is here again, which can only mean one thing, another three tunes from me and hopefully from lots of you legends too. How are all of you music loving rockers from Fanore to the San Francisco doing on this fine evening? Sure, isn't great to be alive all the same like.
It's a time of the week when lovers of music, tunes and craic bring their blockchain community three of their finest and brightest tunes to share and celebrate, so lets roll on and let the tunes flow free.
This is my 64th week waxing lyrical for Three Tune Tuesday. It started off with me just sharing tunes into what seemed like a void, but little by little others joined and now I'm thrilled that we have a little corner of Hive where we come and share our tunes every Tuesday, and long may it continue. I almost stopped posting the songs and thoughts a few times, but I stuck with it and now interestingly it is my favorite thing about Hive. I love music and now I have a network of folks around the world who love music too and we share our tunes and catch up with each others tunes and discuss them each week. We get Pop, Metal, Rock, Gospel, Folk, Jazz, Rap, Hip-Hop, Trip-Hop, Reggae, Bippy bappidy Flange Hop. Ok I made that one up, but you get the idea, we are all learning about new artists, bands, back stories and sure isn't it just mighty!
Something that excites me the most is that we even get musicians sharing their covers of famous songs and even their own songs from time to time here on #ThreeTuneTuesday, which is a real favorite of mine, as that takes talent, time and dedication.
We are adding New posters and retaining our core of regulars here on #TTT which is fantastic. Let's keep it growing and that playlist that @blackdaisyft is updating (when she gets time) has ripped past the 600 mark that I mentioned before and at the last count was at an mightily impressive 639 unique tunes and trucking steadily towards 700. Thank you for doing that by the way daisy, when you do find time, as I like throwing on the playlist from time to time reminding myself of all of the sweet tunes that have been shared down through the months - Good on you.
Weekly, I try to find two or three hours to listen to all of the fantastic music shared from like-minded folk from around the globe and interact with their posts. This has lead me to genres I don't know well and to some amazing new bands and artists and has even introduced me to some musical instruments I did not know existed. It also allows me to upvote smaller accounts and fins some really interesting people from all over the world, which is heartening.
I hope you enjoy the tunes - be sure to tell me all about it in the comments below and above all else, please enjoy the rest of your Tuesday - smile at a stranger, rub a dog, be a nice human to someone who was not expecting it - peace out.
For those unfamiliar with TTT or Three Tune Tuesday....
The jist is as follows
Every Tuesday I'm going to share 3 songs which I like to listen to and I invite your feedback in the comments below. Better still, why not have a blast of your own Three Tune Tuesday and mention me in the post and I'll come and find the post and upvote it. If you could also use #threetunetuesday tags that would be great, as that is what I use when sifting through all the entries every Wednesday. It'll be a sweet way for us all to discover new music. You'll also be in with a chance of winning the prize - more on that later.
Here are my week sixty four recommendations for Three Tune Tuesday
** Drum roll please.....**
Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit
We have reached the 64th week, which is nearly fifteen months of tunes and over the past while we are getting around twenty three tune tuners per week, and I just realised we still have not had a Tune from Nirvana, not a single one.
Seeing as they were a favourite band of mine growing up, I wanted to change that today and what better way to change it than with this absolute classic that I remember moshing to at youth discos as a young fellow. It might be a bit obvious but it's also a banging tune, so why not!
Nirvana - In Bloom
Nirvana were thrust into te limelight in he early 1990s when grunge became popular and it's fair to say the guys weren't ready for the big time and Kurt Cobain certainly struggled with the attention and would have much prefered a cult following.
I recently read Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl's autobiography and it talks a lot about the early days of Nirvana and I'd really recommend it to any Nirvana or Foo Fighters fans, as of course Dave went on to found Foo Fighters around a year after Kurt's sad death by drug overdose.
On that gloomy note, here is your second tune, another cracker I might add.
Nirvana - Lithium
I'm hopeful that there are a few of you reading this who have never heard of Nirvana and if you are one of them, you are so lucky, as you have so much class music to discover.
Start of with the Nevermind album which will blow your mind, then check out the all acoustic Live in New York and then keep going throug Bleach and In Utero.
You're welcome!! I'll leave you with Lithium 🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟
