Hello everybody on HIVE, and especially the Music Community. My name is Jasper and I'm writing (and singing) to you from Cape Town, South Africa.
This is my sixth week contributing to "Three Tunes Tuesday", started by 
I am trying to stick to a set pattern, where I perform 2 cover songs (written by famous artists) and 1 original song (written by me) around a theme. This week I've chosen the theme of "Love/Lust at First Site"!
For the first song, I've chosen something that was a catchy hit from about 9 or 10 years ago (can you believe it!). It still sounds pretty fun and fresh to me and I enjoyed remembering it! I had never seen the video before and you should watch it - it has a surprise ending! Hahaha - I'm talking about "Call Me Maybe" by Carly Rae Jepsen!
Here's the original:
After that, we have a bit more of a serious love song's take on Love at First Site, which takes me back to being a young teenager in 1999 - "I knew I loved you Before I Met You" by Savage Garden. Dudes, what does that even mean? Hahaha
Here's the Original video:
And now it's time for my original of the week! It is a song about how I would feel if I was a young lady in a bar/pub and some guy tried to approach me with a pick-up line. Do Pick-Up Lines ever work? Please let me know in the comments if a pick-up line has ever worked for you or has impressed you?
My own song is literally called "The Pick Up Line Song"... should it have another name?
**Lyrics
You are so pretty, I don't know what to say
Perhaps a Hasty Pick Up Line, before you walk away
(Hmmm.... think!)
If we were praying mantises I would let you eat my head
At least I'd know my one true love was gonna be well fed
If I was a billionaire for you I would still beg
And if I was your puppy... I'd probably hump your leg
I'd hump your leg, I'd hump it real good! (You'd like it!)
You are so pretty, I don't know what to do
Perhaps a Tasty Pick Up Line, would get me close to you
(Hmmm.... think!)
If I was your kitten, I'd catch you a fat mouse
And I'd drag it's bleeding carcass, straight into your house
If I was Casanova, I'd take you straight to bed
And if I was a caveman... I'd probably club your head
I'd club your head, I'd club it real good! (You'd like it!)
You are so pretty, you're out my league it's true
So tell me does this napkin, smell of chloroform to you?
And that's my Three Tunes Tuesday for Week 71! What theme will I base my mini-set around next week?
By the way - I have started a weekly cover request post on Thursdays where the person who asked for the cover I actually try and play, gets 50% of the post rewards! Please think about what you'd like me to try and comment on Thursday's post?
Bye for now!
