Here are my week two hundred and twenty six recommendations for Three Tune Tuesday

Drum roll please.....

David Bowie - Under Pressure

What do you do when you can't think of just three tunes for your David Bowie Three Tune Tuesday post?

Ya do another Bowie appreciation post, that's what!

Bowie has done plenty of collaborations over the years, but arguably none as good as this classic.

I learned recently that John Deacon, Queen's bassist, came up with the memorable bassline, but during a break, he forgot what he had played. I wonder what he was smoking???

Luckily, someone in the studio had recorded it, so it was recovered and became the foundation of the track!

Absolute belter this one.

David Bowie - Space Oddity

I love this one!

It might even be the first ever Bowie song I heard played by one of my older brothers back in the day.

Did you know that "Space Oddity" was released just nine days before the Apollo 11 moon landing in July 1969?

Yep, it's that old! Hard to believe...

This timing led many to believe it was written about the space race and the moon landing, but Bowie insisted that was not the case.

The song was actually penned months earlier, inspired by Stanley Kubrick’s 1968 film 2001: A Space Odyssey. The tone and undercurrent of isolation were more a reflection of Bowie's own emotional state and artistic ambitions than a direct celebration of the moon mission, which would not be Bowie’s style at all.

Anyway enjoy so more Bowie on this my 226th Three Tune Tuesday.

Holy shitballs Batman, that's some run!

David Bowie - Modern Love

From 1969, let's fast forward to 1983 and Modern Love, an 80s classic!

Despite it being a great tune, Bowie once admitted that he had mixed feelings about "Modern Love". He told interviewers he found it too commercial and almost didn’t include it on the Let’s Dance album unbelievably. It was producer Nile Rodgers who convinced him it would be a hit — and he was dead right.

Ata boy Nile, you called it well.

Without further ado.... or is it adieu... 🤔🤔

Ado, I think it's ado!!!

Hit it....

Three Tune Tuesday

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 226th 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. Over the years, I have listened to fantastic music shared from like-minded folk from around the globe and interacted 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.

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.

HBI contest - win up to 6HBI

Share your Three Tune Tuesday songs below or create a post with #ttt or #threetunetuesday and mention me so I can find the post.

Three Tune Tuesday Sponsors

We have a sponsor list of six people who selflessly offer HBI in addition to my one. They are as follows @tengolotodo @bozz @coquicoin @ablaze @seki1 @inthenow

Due to a very busy life on my side, the winner posts often come after a delay and may come over 4 to 8 consecutive days. That's just how I do it, so please be patient while awaiting HBI and understand that only my 1HBI is guaranteed. The others are dependant on our lovely sponsors seeing these posts and sending on the HBI. That means some weeks winners may get 3 shares and other weeks they may get more.

Thanks a million to our sponsors above once again and any winners please bear in mind that some people only pop on here every few months, so be patient while waiting for the HBI.

Best of luck!
