Three Tune Tuesday! What make an attention deficient Sloth Buzz?
What makes a Sloth Buzz? Well, let me tell you through song! I won't be singing, nor humming them, but I will share some Youtube videos! (Which I've just listened to and sung along to!)
Edit:Added image, fixed some grammar. Read it 3 times before posting, post, come back an hour later and notice mistakes....typical!
Three Tune Tuesday #TTT is the brainchild of @ablaze, I discovered it on sloth.buzz from Tengolotodo and Hannes-Stoffel, both sharing their TTTs there on occasion. You can find more info from Blaze's TTT post last week (HERE). There's even a small prize for the 'best' TTT of the week! All the more reason to participate!
Basically, all you have to do is share 3 tunes, on Tuesday! Simple really! Well, not as simple as you think, not for a sloth who is constantly buzzing at least! I was trying to decide what to post for today, and noticed someone else had posted TTT, then had an a-ha moment! It sounded like an easy post to make!
The biggest decision is what songs to share? Damn, I have a playlist of a few thousand songs that I used to listen to whilst at work, driving around all day, I needed different tunes to keep me awake more than anything! Everything from Rock to cheesy pop. Comedy songs to power ballads!
I recently made a 'fluff it, I just want to enjoy myself' playlist, this was only 40-ish songs, that I now listen to most days! Normally when my mood starts dipping or I'm feeling a little drained! Again this has a wide collection of songs, from country to rock but my favourites tend to be the more humourous songs or the ones that are a little more on the edge. things like Afroman, Monty Python, Tenacious D or Tim Minchin!
So, I thought, let's go with 3 songs that are a little more 'edgy' for my first attempt at 3 tunes Tuesday! Funnily enough, this is the first time I've watched the videos for them, they make them all the better I think!
First up, one that sums up pretty much everyone, everywhere, all the time!
Everyone Else is an Asshole by ReelBigFish.
This is their 'video version' after 10 years without a video on the main upload to youtube. This is one of those songs I love belting out whilst driving along the road with the window open, because lets be honest, we can all be a bit of an asshole some time!
Second, we have:
The Stereotypes Song by Your Favorite Martian.
I love this one, a little bit of fun directed at everyone! We all know these stereotypes, in fact, some of them could be aimed at a number of different people or cultures, and as the song state, stereotypes are a little ridiculous! Enjoy singing along whilst poking fun at everyone! With me being a Scottish sloth, I think we get the worse end of the bargain in this one!
Third, last but not least
Ironic by Bo Burnham
Can't help but sing along to this when I hear it, there's something rather ironic about the whole thing! Much better than the 'mainstream' ironic song, in which the only ironic thing was none of it was ironic! I love the humorous approach to this one!
A bonus song since I went down a rabbit hole whilst thinking of what songs to share, and I just thought about whilst typing that I'm Scottish. Might as well throw in a little Billy Connely, now most people probably relate him to 'if it wisnea for your Wellies' song, however, I prefer this one. I had it on a CD growing up and used to play it on repeat!
All videos belong to the respective channels/artists, I hold no rights to them. Shared via the Youtube share option.
Check out #TTT on Hive and share your favourite 3 (or 4 songs)! Let's have some fun and enjoy ourselves!
Sloth out!
LMAO!!! That first song had me in stitches!! First is the gesture to the drummer and then the beat of the song which sounded a lot like a nursery rhyme with too much words and a different kind of vibe. @tengolotodo I bet you like that song huh? You have a way with "arses"! LMAO
haha yes I do!
Ticks all the boxes one of my favourite!
hehe The Big Yin!
Great set of tunes!
I love a good comedy song, so many awesome comedians with a few songs behind them! Always great for a chuckle!
These are hysterical! "It's funny because it's true" really holds with Everyone Else is an Asshole because, frankly, they are! 😂
I like the fact it also points out that You/I am also an asshole at the end! We all are! Great song! And, if you disagree I'd probably have to say you were a bit of an asshole lol!

This was just great and just what I needed to be honest, I had one of those work mornings and I am catching up on a few #ttt posts now on my lunch break and these had me laughing away at my home office desk! Bo Burnham is a genius, that docu he made during Covid-19 was so so good, in fact I must watch it again and check out more from Bo, I love his sense of humour, he is so sharp. Finished out brilliantly by another genius! Nice one man..
Glad they brought a smile to your Monday, love me a little comedy to pick me up on the sloth days! I'll need to have a look for the Bo Burnham doc, don't think I've seen that one!
I managed to send myself down a wormhole of comedy songs after YouTubing those, might need to select some more for this week! Love the whole TTT concept! Thanks for taking the time to comment.
