God's Gonna Cut You Down - Johnny Cash
I love the Johnny Cash version of this song, yet I've never seen this video. It was made after his death i think, but it's still good.

They Might Be Giants - Birdhouse in your soul.
I remember spending hours trying to learn the lyrics to this when I was about 9! I would sit with my massive yellow Walkman playing my copy (which I'd recorded from the top 40 off of my mums radio in the kitchen) over & over again. I think i used to write the lyrics down too, probably to practice acapella in front of the mirror!
Paid off though, here at 34 years old I still know every word! Skillz.

Blind Melon - No Rain
This has been in my head all week. I used to love this song - ah to be 13 again with all that angst!

Laura Mvula: Green Garden
I think i'm very late to the Laura Mvula party, but wow - this song is awesome. I only heard it for the first time yesterday when I was catching up with a few podcasts whilst cleaning this ole house, but i was instantly stopped in my tracks. New fave!!

22.10.13 | THE BLUETONES - SLIGHT RETURN
Woah! Blast from the past! This was the only cassette I had with me to play on my walkman when I came to Bath age 16 for work experience on The Bath Chronicle. I must have listened to it a thousand times, but I still love it. I think it was number one when Take That split up? (Why would my brain remember that?!) Anyway, it's this week's Tuesday's Tune - enjoy!

17.09.13 | BLUR - TENDER
Blur - Tender
When I hear this, I'm 19 years old sitting in the beer garden of the pub opposite uni (the castle?) with daisies in my hair, drinking a pint of Guiness.
I love this song.

10.09.13 | KATHRYN WILLIAMS - I STARTED A JOKE
Kathryn Williams - I started a joke.
Do you ever love an artist, like really really love them, then for some reason they just pop out of your head & you totally forget about them for years? Well this happened with me and Kathryn Williams. I was totally obsessed in the early '00s and played her 'Little Black Numbers' album over and over again in our office (my work mate Al hated it! Hi Al!). Then for some reason, I just stopped playing her.
This song is a cover of a Bee Gees song, and it's on an amazing album called Relations which is full of covers of her favourite songs. My mate Tom bought me it as a wedding gift & I'm about to drag that album out from the depths of the cupboard under the stairs and upload it as a matter of urgency!

How could I forget such a lovely voice?
P.S - There's no video, but you don't need one.
P.P.S - I was going to choose Bam Bam by Sister Nancy this week but I have been listening to it non-stop.
P.P.S - The name 'Tuesdays Tune' is a bit Tony Blackburn isn't it pop pickers? I feel a change coming on.
