Lucky times 5

image.png

Hello hello silver bloggers, music lovers and Hello hivers!

Inspiration don't you just love it?
Well today's inspiration comes from my fellow moderator @asiaymalay and we were both discussing how lucky we were!

So today we are having three songs with lucky in the title!

I mean it was lucky we talked about lucky right?

After all, I believe we generally make our own luck...


It is Tuesday and that of course means that it's #ttt or #threetunetuesday and so it's time to share some tunes with you!


@ablaze started #ttt 237 weeks ago! Go check out what it is all about on his last post Tom Waits(Frank's Wild Years) for Three Tune Tuesday - Week 237 - win some HBI

Do go support @ablaze as without him we would not have this mental fun musical activity that you can win HSBI from! I am happy to be one of the SIX sponsors and it is kinda fun checking out music from all over this global village of ours!

Long live #ttt 😁🎼 and #threetunetuesday

There will be a bonus tune or two!

Kicking it off with the oldest tune ...

Tune 1 - Emerson, Lake & Palmer - Lucky Man

Release Date: 1970
Album: Emerson, Lake & Palmer (Debut Album)

He had white horses
And ladies by the score
All dressed in satin
And waiting by the door
Ooh, what a lucky man he was
Ooh, what a lucky man he was

Oh yeah @asiaymalay I have to start with this hehe!

Formed in 1970, Emerson, Lake & Palmer helped define and set new standards throughout one of the most ambitious and experimental periods in 20th-Century popular music. Drawn from The Nice, King Crimson, and Atomic Rooster respectively, they were hailed as progressive rock’s first supergroup. source

I will be honest and say they were before my time, so I only know of them after their heyday.

A nice wee ballad to kick us off!

Oooh what a lucky man he was!

Next up it's a battle of two ladies ... I know which one I vote for but what will you say?

Tune 2 - Madonna - Lucky Star

Release Date: September 1983
Album: Madonna (Debut Album)

or

Tune 3 - Kylie Minogue - I Should Be So Lucky

Release Date: 20th May 1983 (Single)
Album: Kylie (Debut Album)

Rumour has is that the producers Stock Aitken Waterman (SAW) forgot Kylie was due to arrive in London from Australia, so they wrote the entire track in a panicked 40 minutes while she waited outside the studio. Mike Stock wrote the lyrics based on the idea that despite her success and talent, she must be "unlucky in love." She recorded the vocals in under an hour and flew straight back to Melbourne!

I remember her from the Aussie soap opera Neighbours where she was a little car mechanic, so I Have always been Team Kylie!

I should be so lucky
Lucky, lucky, lucky

This is the catchy line that plays in my head when I think of lucky!

We finish up with an amazing British band and these guys really should have their own ttt soon!

Kylie was in a recent show over here in the US. She didn't have a big part, but it was funny. She was kind of making fun of herself which was cool. I think the show was called The Residence. Earlier Madonna is one of my favorites. After Ray of Light I kind of lost track.

Yeah Madonna was good at the beginning. Like so many artists, I go off them after a couple of albums lol. Kylie is fun and was forever appearing on charity shows over and was always game for a laugh which I think made her such a household name here.

I like your theme @tengolotodo but have no earphones to listen, don't want to give the patients a fright! I know the first 3 and must say your 1st choice is my favourite of those!
And I absolutely agree we make our own luck, that's a sure thing 😉

I'm on Team Madonna; even when I was young, I dressed like her. So her song is my favorite. Next would be Kylie Minogue, although I lost track of her. An excellent song and a good selection. Here in Venezuela, there's a saying that if you're lucky in gambling, you can't be lucky in love, and vice versa. Hugs, lucky guy. 🍀

A big hug lucky lady

What a great selection of songs today, very well done! I've not heard "Lucky Star" in years now, I forgot just how good Madonna was back on her first album. And Kylie, I've not heard that one in decades...

Some awesome stuff today! How have you been doing? I hope the winter isn't too bad so far!

It was interesting both Madonna and Kylie tunes were from the debut albums. That for me was when Madonna was at her best.

Well we had a storm the last couple of days, so was absolutely chucking it down. Mrs T has started a YouTube channel, well she announced at 9.50pm on Sunday a couple of weeks ago that she wanted to do vlogmas, meaning post one video a day as from the next day, so all of December. She had not even made a channel, so lol been making channels and other social media accounts and learning how to edit videos lol.
All fun and a great break from Hive. Part of it will be about being an American in Scotland and I think it is turning into a bit of a comedy lol . Now it is time to get marketing!
