Hello everybody on HIVE, and especially the Music Community. My name is Jasper and I'm writing (and singing) to you from Cape Town in South Africa!
This is my 31st week contributing to "Three Tune Tuesday", an initiative started by 
In all of my TTT entries I like to play the songs on guitar as well as share the original videos. I have a new pattern for "Three Tune Tuesday" where I pick three songs by one of my favourite artists, that has inspired me - as I also write original songs.
Two weeks ago I did Bob Dylan. Let's do another folk hero I grew up listening to thanks to my music-loving parents - Neil Young! Last time I checked, Neil Young was in his very late 70's. In more recent years, he had a proper health scare and thought he was dying, and even basically did a farewell album and concerts... but I believe he has now recovered well which is great!
Neil Young had a famously high voice so wish me luck!
For the first song - let's pull a harmonica out to cover the very famous "Heart of Gold"! Here is the original:
For the second song, let's do the intensely emotional song about drug addiction called "Needle and the Damage Done". This song is an acoustic guitar standard for people who want to learn some fingerpicking! I am going to choose to sing it low and only go up and join Neil Young's famously high vocal at the climatic ending! Here is the original:
Finally, for the third song - I really love the riff of "Harvest Moon", where I must re-tune the guitar to "Drop-D" to get an even more gorgeous spread between the high notes and the bass during the main riff! Apologies, some spam artist tried to phone me during the song and it was too late for me to start all over again!!!
Anyway, here is the original! This song came later in Neil Young's career when music videos were becoming "a thing" I guess!
So that's week 96 done and dusted! I hope you enjoyed the Neil Young songs! Apologies that spammer idiot tried to call and interupt us! Which song was your favourite?
Which artist will I do three covers of next week?
Before I go... please look out for my weekly cover request post on Thursdays! If you make a song request in the comments, and then I attempt the song, you get rewarded with 50% of that post's rewards in HP! It's as simple as that!
