It's time to mix it up again and as I often do, I am going to take inspiration for the week number. So, it being week 92 of Three Tune Tuesday, this week, I am going to dine on songs that were released in 1992.
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 92nd 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 three or five 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....
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 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 one recommendations for Three Tune Tuesday
** Drum roll please.....**
House of Pain - Jump Around
OK, to any of the younger folks who may never have heard this one, you're welcome, this my friends is the very definition of a banger! Guaranteed to lively up any dancefloor from Berlin to Beirut and Ballinasloe to Burma.
Ah, this one never gets old for me, and just wants me to yep, Jump Around. Press play and enjoy DJ Lethal, Danny Boy, and Everlast doing their thing. I have no idea if they are still performing, but they were quality back in the day, although I don't know much of their other stuff other than this classic to be fair.
Guns N' Roses - November Rain
9 minutes and 16 seconds for a song and every bit of it worthwhile in my humble opinion. It just would not fly today in this modern world, where everything seems to have to be instant, quick, immediate. Well this song is none of these things and I love a good long song like this or Pink Floyd's gem Shine on you crazy diamond.
Guns n Roses were an absolute institution back in the 90s and rightly so, as they really have some serious classics. A friend of mine went to their concert in Ireland a few years back, and he said it was one of the best concerts he'd been to, perhaps a little nostalgic but there you go.
Right enough of my blabbering, you have 9 minutes and 16 to get through, so head on down and press play and enjoy Axl, Slash, Gilby and the boys doing their thing.
R.E.M. - Nightswimming
Again, any of the younger heads here, if you don't know R.E.M., do yourself a favour and find the album Automatic for the People which came out in 1992. It's a classic album and it is jammed full of quality. Honestly I could have easily picked any of the songs from this album which starts off with the song Drive, which is a favourite of mine and includes the one most of you will recognise Everybody Hurts, but I have opted for Nightswimming which has always been my favourite song from the album.
The Prodigy - Out Of Space
Sure look it, you can't go talking about 1992 and not mention The Prodigy and their debut album The Experience. I know it is Three Tune Tuesday and all of that, but I will use some poetic license and give you all a bonus track, as I could not only pick three, so here is your bonus track from the lunatics from Braintree, Essex.
I have seen Keith and the lads a few times live, and they are definitely better in a tent or a theatre/arena. The time I saw them on a stage, their sound was absolutely shite and it was a big disappointment, but the other two times they were class.
ThreeTune Spotify Playlist
Our good friend and regular Three Tune Tuesday poster @blackdaisyft added some tunes to a playlist in the early days and there are around 600 tunes there which is class. You can check those out here:
