Dear Reader, before you, might say I am milking this song... I will not give you the chance to do so.
Now why do I say that, because I will write my first (and possibly last) Three Tunes Tuesday this Tuesday and it will be included there as well.
I am not sure what is should think about Three Tunes Tuesday. Part of me thinks it´s a lazy format, and if that means that I am stepping on some toes so be it. Or maybe 🤔 I am just a music snob and this TTT the perfect way for people to start blogging about music and sharing amazing songs. I guess I will just have to try it.
The thing that bugs me most about it is that I think there are many more original ways to write articles using music.
Such as The Spread The Vibes challenge #spreadthevibes that 
And as I enjoy doing things just a little different, and STV has no real rules, this will be my reaction to my own Three Tunes Tuesday post that I still have to finish and publish.
Now back to the song I plan to milk. This song will be included in my TTT but it will not be the main character. Hence it needed its own post.
Now let me tell you WhyWhy.
It is not because of the fact that this song has probably all the ingredients to make me love it:
A female voice, a good story, dreamy mid-evil musical influences, and a touch of witchy magic, just like this next song.
The Shadows - Alina de Brocéliande
That song ticks all the boxes, and I loved it straight away...it has that magical storytelling power. It´s slightly haunting while having a darkish beauty, but it is not the song that truly amazed me this week.
For years I have been wondering where my love of this type of music came from, and I think I found it. I think this is where my love for this type of music originated.
Mike Oldfield ft. Maggie Reilly - Moonlight Shadow
The trees that whisper in the evening, carried away by a moonlight shadow. It was probably the first fairy tale song I ever heard and it never let me go (although it took me years to figure out who the artist was I just remembered that voice of Maggie).
I always thought of them as Fairy Tale songs, and it probably explains my love for Leonard Cohen. Within Temptation, Nick Cave to name but a few.
Few do Fairy Tale songs better than Ayreon and Nightwish. So how about mixing those two to get you that powerful Fairy Tale song experience?
Ayreon Universe – Merlin's Will
Still, that was not my Amazing discovery, I tell you what as.
As I like it darker. I was writing a very dark story and doing my musical research when I came across this song.
It introduced me to a genre I never heard of before. But I am very sure you will hear more about it soon. Filk songs, no I am not making this up.
Filk music is a musical culture, genre, and community tied to science fiction, fantasy, and horror.
Guess I have just found my next level of dark fairytale songs and that is why I am shilling the next song this week.
Darkness - Julia Ecklar
How can I not love a song that talks about;
There's a darkness out between the stars that any eye can see
There's a deeper dark within me, where no light will ever be
There's an empty place beside me where my lover ought to stand
And there's a burning sun before me, and the throttle's in my hand
This was 1983, and thanks to the internet it is still available to all of us.
Fairy Tale Song lovers eat your heart out because there are many more gems created by this Artist. And a full post pending on this old, but for me, new genre called Filk.
