Silver is the word in ttt 157
Tuesday for me on Hive means three tune tuesday...
If you know me then you know I love to take my inspiration from somewhere.
Well this week is no different!
Today the inspiration comes from my post yesterday! In case you missed it 2 years as a Silver Bloggers mod ~ 44 HSBI thank you contest .... yes it was a celebration of me being a Silver mod for two years. So if you fancy picking a couple of HSBI go head over there!
In that post you will also see that I mention another Silver .... so yes you guessed it, Silver is the theme for today's Three Tune Tuesday.
Well no worries it gives me a great excuse to play three songs with Silver in the title!
So a wee tribute to Silver songs coming up!
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 157 weeks ago! Go check out what it is all about on his last post Celebrating Three Years of Three Tune Tuesday - Week 156 - 12 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 TWELVE sponsors and it is kinda fun checking out music from all over this global village of ours!
Long live #ttt 😁🎼 and #threetunetuesday
Songs with Silver in the title, naturally Silver Machine from Hawkwind spring to mind, but can you think of any others, I have a fair few running through my head.
I went to my go to for titles and lyrics and did a search on songs with ilver in the title.
You can find the results in chosic
Can you guess how many songs there were?
The answer .... 127 Songs with silver in the title
Let's see how many you remember ....
We kick off with an artit that I have never heard of!
Hibou - Silver
Have you heard of Hibou?
I hadn't !!
One thing I like about ttt is finding out about new bands and today I was doing it for my post.
I found out that Hibou is decribed in wiki an American dream pop/shoegaze band based in Seattle, Washington, formed in 2013. The band consists solely of Peter Michel, who formerly toured as the drummer for Craft Spells....
What the fluff is dream pop?
Dream pop is a subgenre of alternative rock and neo-psychedelia that emphasizes atmosphere and sonic texture as much as pop melody. Common characteristics include breathy vocals, dense
and ...
What the fluff is shoegaze?
Shoegaze (originally called shoegazing and sometimes conflated with "dream pop") is a subgenre of indie and alternative rock characterized by its ethereal mixture of obscured vocals, guitar distortion and effects, feedback, and overwhelming volume. It emerged in Ireland and the United Kingdom in the late 1980s among neo-psychedelic groups who usually stood motionless during live performances in a detached, non-confrontational state. The name comes from the heavy use of effects pedals, as the performers were often looking down at their pedals during concerts.
Looking down at those pedals or shoes hence the term shoegaze!
Who fluffing knew!!!
Okay that is enough learning for me in one day. The Silver grey cells can't take any more new knowledge hehe.
Actually I did play quite a few of those 127 songs throughout the day.
Fleetwood Mac - Silver Springs
There really are loads of Silver songs but I have plumped for this Fleetwood Mac classic for a couple of reasons. Firstly our house in Florida is in Silver Springs Shores!
And secondly there is another silver anniversary in the air!
This is the official live performance at Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank, CA in May 1997 newly remastered in HD to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the band's Billboard #1 live album 'The Dance'.
We finish with an absolute banger!
Hawkwind - Silver Machine
The one and only Lemmy on vocals RIP Lemmy
I was never really into Lemmy Hawkwind or Motorhead that much, but credit where credit is due.
Some tunes are bangers and Silver Machine falls into that category!
Enjoy ....
I hope that you enjoyed these Silver 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 🎶🎵🎶

I've never really gotten into Motorhead either. My friend enjoys them, but I don't think I could name a single song by them.
Ace of Spades is the only one I think I can name!
OMG I haven't listened to Fleetwood Mac in years:)
