Hello, it's three tunes day. C'mon, let's have a blast with this.
For the record, #ttt (Three Tunes Tuesday) is an ongoing initiative which is organized by @ablaze for all music lovers. Catch the full gist about that HERE.
Let's talk about Dreams. I've looked at the world through an opportunistic framework and I like to take up opportunities when I see one. To be fair, they say there are lots of opportunities out there, and the people that say that have a point. You probably won't see it if you don't go looking.
There was a time when I never gave myself a chance to have a Dream. The circumstances manifesting themselves around me made it hard to imagine a world where I could be "greedy enough" to Dream. Those days are already behind me and I'm now living a life that's filled with a huge level of optimism.
Don't deprive yourself of your chance to dream, okay? Now, listen to these songs and meditate upon them;
1. SWEET DREAMS by Eurythmics.
Even for a song that was written 40 years ago, I still enjoy every bit of this song and I came across a bunch of YouTube videos where the guitar and piano cover of this song were uploaded by really talented folks. The original song will take you to the land of sweet dreams. The piano/guitar covers will make sure you stay in that land forever. Haha.
Another thing I like to have in mind when picking a Music video to share is the quality of the storytelling in the video. This one is a simple video compared to most music videos you will see in this era. However, the video is still very elegant and decently choreographed.
2. I HAVE A DREAM by Westlife.
The Westlife crew has a very big reputation in the musical world and this is one of their songs that felt like an anthem when I was growing up. To be fair, I know I listened to ABBA sing this same song. I was on my way to get their version of the song when I noticed they didn't have an official Music video on YouTube.
This is one of those songs that I may not listen to for 5 years but whenever I decide to play it, all the lyrics will be fresh on my mind. Haha. Do y'all believe in angels? Do you believe there is a right time for you? Don't sleep on this song. You can also check out ABBA's version of the song.
3. BOULEVARD OF BROKEN DREAMS by Green Day.
We can go on to highlight songs in the 'Dream category' that are all fun, colorful, and filled with optimism. But, we all know that shit happens and that's the reality of life. For most people, the path to their dream will be a lonely journey in which every step they take will be incredibly painful.
This can be one of those songs that will help you go through tough times as you walk down the rough path that leads to your Dreamland. Trust me, the journey is not easy. It is a journey that's filled with sacrifice. Have that in mind while chasing your dreams.
That's it. That's where we will draw the line in this edition of Three Tunes Tuesday.
