  1. I don't get how people manage to come up with songs for this week's #TuneTuesday theme #SongsFromHome. I grew up in small towns, and that's where I live.

    I guess what I *can* do is think of something geographically "nearby", and that's "typical" for this region.

    And I'm immediately thinking of two songs. Both German 😂

    #HansAlbers - Auf der Reeperbahn nachts um halb eins

    Obvious choice - Former red-light district, now party location. You might not be aware, but every time I use the hashtags #DocksHamburg, #MojoClub, #Headcrash, #GrosseFreiheit36, #Molotow, #GruenspanHamburg - That's where I am.

  2. #TuneTuesday #SongsFromHome #Appalachia #WestVirginia #GeorgiaOnMyMind

    Songs from my childhood home and my current home which are both in Appalachia.

    I'm an Appalachian by Denton King (song.link/twpbfxj58j8ss)

    Georgia on my Mind by Ray Charles (song.link/c78prkvtftmvm)

    Midnight Train to Georgia by Gladys Knight & the Pips (song.link/i/943204009)

    Call me West Virginia by Denton King (song.link/jgfrww7vbbhxm)

    West Virginians are Coming Home by Denton King (song.link/4kkpm9gvtvxvd)

  3. So I thought I was skipping this week's Tune Tuesday, because of how niche the theme of Songs From Home is.

    But then I remembered in the mid 2000s, I ended up buying a rap CD off a Maryland rapper named Kaotic at Arundel Mills Mall. I still have the songs ripped to my digital collection.

    So after some google searching, I found his song "Maryland Hip Hop" on YouTube. It's the first song on the video.

  4. Today's Tune Tuesday has a theme of "Songs From Home."

    Immediately, my mind went to the Broadway musical Hairspray.

  5. So I did one #tunetuesday #SongsFromHome post about the land I'm from, how about a second one, about the land I made my new home in.

    What about the #Dutch national anthem as performed by one of my favorite Dutch singers: #FloorJansen

    And just 20m from my #Tilburg home lies #Efteling, the second most popular theme park in Europe.
    So here's fantastic Dutch #EpicMetal band #Epica, doing a song about one of Efteling's rides:

  6. @metalpoetnl picked this #TuneTuesday theme: #SongsFromHome

    We're based in the city of 's-Hertogenbosch. I (Paul) grew up in a totally different part of the Netherlands: #Westland

    #KrommeJongens (the Cucumbers) was band famous only within the borders of that region.
    Their inspiration was mostly based on the agricultural activity there. Hence the song "Bloemkool" (cauliflower)

  7. #TuneTuesday theme for today is #SongsFromHome and I got nothing from the location I currently am at, however, the beautiful self-titled album 'Three Fish' created by #PearlJam's #JeffAment in 1996 floats up out of my memories. 💭

    This #Grunge #Rock album has also a story about an intelligent, a half intelligent, and a stupid fish looking for a new home after some fishermen arrived at their lake. 🎣

    How this tale ends, you will have to listen to the entire album... 😉

  8. Today's #TuneTuesday theme is from @metalpoetnl 🎶

    #SongsFromHome

    Songs about where you are from, or where you live, or have lived

    I grew up in a small village outside of #Abergavenny so the choice is a fairly minimal and straightforward one 😄

    Ladies and gentlemen, we present #MartyWilde
