Happy Hive Power Up Day mixed with Three Tune Tuesday!

avatar

I can't believe it's already fall. Some of the local trees are starting to change color already. I'm lucky living where I am though because it doesn't every really get very cold. Every now and again you need a jacket in early morning or on a stormy day. I most certainly don't miss the snow, so it's one of the perks of southern California! As long as you can put up with the horrific traffic, occasional earthquakes, and some smog it's not too bad...

I very nearly forgot today was Hive Power Up Day, until I saw a couple posts and decided I had best go ahead and get mine done as well. I am still trying to reach dolphin status as organically as possible, and the only Hive I had I moved in from outside this morning. So I only put in ten to try to keep it as organic as possible until I hit that five thousand HP which is very, very close! After the ten Hive power up I have 4,878 total HP. Hopefully I'll move into dolphin category next week!

Tuesday has rolled around again so I'll be sharing yet another Three Tune Tuesday. If you're new to Hive or to the weekly event you can share three songs that you enjoy in a post, just make sure the include the tag #TTT and it's not a bad idea to do a shoutout to @ablaze . Thanks to @ablaze as well for starting and continuing to support the weekly event. One randomly chosen winner will receive 5 HSBI units, which is a great prize!

I generally like to have an idea of what I'm going to share when Tuesday rolls around. Today I honestly just haven't had much time to think about it. I've seen a couple great post done today, I really liked @bozz 's today honoring Kris Kristofferson who just passed away this week. He was a great actor as well as singer/ songwriter. he will be missed, rest in peace. But since @bozz covered that loss I think I'll just throw in some fun songs in Spanish that I've heard the last few days. I know not all of you speak the language but they are still great songs. I'll think I'll kick it off with some Shakira from before she became a blonde superstar.

Shakira

May people only recognize the Colombian singer/songwriter as a blond, but I thought she always looked better as a brunette. Her first two albums failed to get much attention, but her third album "Pies Descalzos" (Bare Feet) made her a big star throughout the Latin American music world. Her fourth album only made her more famous and broke her into the English speaking market. The name of the album was "Dónde Están los Ladrones?" (Where Are The Thieves?) released in 1998 had multiple hit songs, one of which was this one, "Ojos Así" ( Eye Like Yours):

La Oreja De Van Gogh


heraldodemexico.com.mx

This band formed in 1996 in San Sebastián, Spain and the band's name translates as Van Gogh's Ear. It wasn't long before they were signed to a record deal and their first album "Dile al sol" (Tell the sun) was popular in Spain but failed to gain as much traction elsewhere. But their second album "El Viaje de Copperpot" (Copperpot's Journey) gained them a world wide following. The name of the album referring to the movie by Steven Spielberg "The Goonies" when the group of kids found Copperpot's skeleton in the tunnels leading to the treasure. It's a great movie if you haven't seen it! Off the second album came this song: "Cuídate" (Take care):

Julieta Venegas


improntamusic.com

Julieta is a Mexican singer/songwriter that became well known with the release of her second album "Bueninvento" (Good invention) but her third made her a huge star across the Spanish speaking world. The album was called simply "Si" (Yes), off of that album came this song "Andar conmigo" (Walk with me):

That will wrap up this combination post of Hive Power Up Day and Three Tune Tuesday. I hope you enjoyed some or all of the music, although I know it's far from my typical rock n roll music posts. Please feel free to leave any comments or questions below, and thank you so much for all of your support. It's truly appreciated! Have a great Tuesday everyone!

The past couple of years I have taken a pretty deep dive into Camilla Cabello and I love a lot of her stuff. It makes me realize I need to circle back to Shakira. I remember she was in a soda commercial before she got really big and she seemed a bit edgier than the pop we have become familiar with.

Her early stuff was much better than what you hear now, she adjusted to the larger audience to make more money. She would have been a fool not to.

Camilla Cabello is good, some younger generation latina singers are really good, but make the mistake of being too pop and many don't write much of their own music. But concert prices for all these younger singers have gone wildly out of control, $900 a ticket isn't uncommon. I'm afraid the days of buying a concert ticket for $12.95 are a long dead memory. Ticketmaster sure doesn't help either...

No, Ticketmaster doesn't help at all. I see that Billy Joel and Stevie Nicks are coming to Detroit soon. As much as I want to see Joel, I am not sure I am going to be willing to pay the ticket prices. I don't blame Shakira either. You gotta do what you gotta do.

That would be a cool show! But it's going to expensive. I miss concert prices of the 80's and 90's. Even the early 2000's weren't too bad...

Yeah, I like how some of the outdoor venues do lawn seats for $25 through the summer, but even then after all the taxes and fees it ends up being much more.

Thanks buddy! I should be there next week, I could just move some money in and do it today, but I want to be able to tell new recruits that I did it organically. Which is pretty much what I've done. After 5K I'll probably add things when I want to and forget about organic though!

Maybe sometimes you can go ahead to take some pictures of the new season, that's if you're up for it.
I usually accumulate Hive even before HPUD. congratulations on your power up.

Of the HP power ups I assume? It's a good idea, I just did this as an afterthought. I completely forgot about power up day until right before I was getting ready to post.

How are you feeling today?

As a huge Real Madrid fan I went off Shakira when she hitched up with the Barcelona player 🤣
