That's right, it's Tuesday folks and for our merry little band of ladies and lads, that means sharing tunes, good vibes and engagement. As another week disappears in the rearview mirror, we have loads of engagement and tunes flying around on Three Tune Tuesday and sure isn't that bloody fantastic! I hope you're ready to share three tunes from wherever you find yourself on this magical spinning lump of rock that we all call home and sure you might even sing us a tune if we're lucky?
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 let's roll on and let the tunes flow free.
This is my 99th week waxing lyrical for Three Tune Tuesday and we are still going strong.
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. Weekly, I try to find four to six 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 led 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 find 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....

Every Tuesday I'm going to share 3 songs which I like to listen to and I invite your feedback in the comments below.

If you could also use #threetunetuesday tag 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 ninety nine recommendations for Three Tune Tuesday
** Drum roll please.....**
Ocean Colour Scene - The Day We Caught The Train
Sometimes the inspiration is a conversation. Other times it's nostalgia. Other weeks it is the week number that gives me inspiration, like for example, this week with it being week 99 I could have gone down the 99 red balloons road, but in the end I did not. Instead I had a playlist from Spotify on which I add to all the time. I heard Bob Seger, Foo Fighters, Nirvana, The National, LCD Soundsystem, I am Kloot all play and then this tune came on from Ocean Colour Scene and I thought Boom! I have not done an Ocean Colour Scene #ttt and although the lads are top notch, I have a feeling that plenty of readers may not have heard of them.
Here it is, have a listen and if it's your first time hearing it, let me know what you think of it in the comments below.
Ocean Colour Scene - The Riverboat Song
On January 1st 1996, the lads from Solihull in the UK brought out their second studio album and it was pure gold, the song above was track two from that album and this tune was the one that opened up the album. This song surprisingly only has 3.6 Million views on Youtube which is one of the reasons that I reckon some of you may not know the band, so hopefully for at least some of you this is an introduction and for the rest of ye it will be reminder of a 90s band that were quality in my opinion.
Ocean Colour Scene - Hundred Mile High City
Like all good things, this Three Tune Tuesday will have to come to a finish, I just need to decide which track to leave you with. I could easily have picked another one from the Moseley Shoals album. Instead I opted for a great song from Marchin Already, the lads third studio album, that came out around 18 months after Moseley Shoals.
Truth be told things went a bit downhill after their second and third albums, but I still enjoy listening to Moseley Shoals and I'll always find some space on a playlist for Ocean Colour Scene.
