Once a Swanta Ed and Twice a Santa Baby on Boxing Day
Hello Hello to all you wonderful Hivians
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!
It is also Boxing Day here in the UK, I wonder if you celebrate or call the 26th of December Boxing Day too?
@ablaze started #ttt 135 weeks ago! Go check out what it is all about on his latest post Bob Dylan for Three Tune Tuesday - Week 134 - 10 HBI shares to be won!
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 TEN sponsors and it is kinda fun checking out music from all over this global village of ours!
Long live #ttt 😁🎼 and #threetunetuesday
I love getting my inspiration from different places.
I do love having Alexa, do you have an Alexa?
This morning I said Alexa play me some Christmas Songs.
Well first up was this one...
An Alexa inspired Christmas Three Tune Tuesday
Kylie Minogue - Santa Baby
Santa Baby has been covered so so many times. And I must admit I am fan of Kylie. I even remember seeing her when she was on the Aussie soap Neighbours
Swanta Ed 🦢🦢🦢
So when I thought of Santa Baby I thought of Swanta Ed!
Back on another platform read.cash a couple of years ago I ran a Christmas competition, I have always been Uncle Ed and with my fondness of feeding and photographing the local swans I morphed into Swanta Ed!
I wonder who remembers $80 giveaway
Read.cash was such a great platform and people were so friendly. I miss it, and who knows now that DeFi is beginning to come back to BCH it might be resurrected!
Santa Baby - Eartha Kitt
Of course when we talk about Santa Baby then we have to mention the original from the 50s which was sung by the incredible sultry and sexy Eartha Kitt.
Has there been a cover that compares to the original from Eartha Kitt?
Do you know there are umpteen covers of Santa Baby!
Alma Cogan - Never Tango With an Eskimo
I was going to play another cover of Santa Baby but Alexa put paid to that!
The next song she played back memories, of a black and blue bottom!
Mine to be precise. I loved this and used to play on a wind up gramophone of my grandfathers.
However these were old 78s and I dropped a couple and broke them.
My father got out the tennis shoe and skelped my arse black and blue, I kid you not couldn't sit down for a week!
I hope that you enjoyed these tunes.
Which was your favourite (if any) ?
Note: The three YouTube videos that I have shared are not owned by me, I am simply spreading great music on Hive.
I wish that you all have a brilliant rest of your week, and until we meet again enjoy your tunes 🎶🎵🎶
Bonus Tune and Johnny Cash - Little Drummer Boy
Someone popped up when Alexa played this and said this is her all time favourite Christmas song ....
Thanks for visiting and I wish you all a terrific rest of your Tuesday.

Ouch! I got my fair share of paddlings when I was a kid too, so don't feel too badly! Great selection of songs. I've always liked Santa Baby more than a lot of the other Christmas songs out there. I hope you had an awesome holiday!
Hehe yeah I think we all got a thrashing so to speak at times, kids of today have no idea how easy they have it!
Yeah Santa Baby is a great Christmas song. We had a great time and I hope you and Mrs Bozz have been enjoying yourself too.
Merry Christmas 🎅🎄
The Little Drummer Boy was always my favorite and still is. Happy Holidays.
I forgot how much I liked The Little Drummer Boy until I herd it again!
Merry Christmas and I hope you are having a fun festive season.
Haha those were the days Ed! I think Kylie is my fav. She looked much better once she left neighbors.
Oh yes she did Steve lol and grew up too.
Haha for sure 😉

Those are some funs choices! Alma Cogan I really have never heard of, but she had a great voice! Eartha Kitt was great too, wow, haven't heard her in a very long time. You can't go wrong with Kylie... Great stuff!
That was a nice addition of Johnny Cash at the end, what a great singer!
Funny story about those old records. He might have over reacted a bit. It was a different time though!
How's he weather been treating you?
These are amazing tunes. I haven't heard them before but I enjoyed listening to them. I wouldn't say I have any favorite... Yet.
Thank you for sharing.

Catching up once again, laughed about the paddling for touching/breaking a few 78s, sounds familiar....
Worth it to listen to the 'Never Tango with an Eskimo', (one of my Mom's records on His Master's Voice) so many on that label!
Hope this Christmas treated you exceptionally well, grown to be a Swanta-Ed !LOLZ
