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 15th week contributing to "Three Tune 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. Last week was the first time I revisted a theme, as I went back to Anti-War Protest Songs. This week I'm going to return to a less serious theme, namely "Songs with Animals in Them". It's time for some silly recent pop songs!
The first song I'm going to do is "Dance Monkey" which was released by Tones and I in 2019, and was a huge hit because of the singer's very distinctive voice! The music video is also very cute... here it is currently sitting on 1.9 billion views!
The next song I'm going to do is "Old Town Road" (I'm going to take my horse...) by Lil Nas X and Billy Ray Cyrus (Miley's dad - Mr "Achy Breaky Heart" himself!). It was also released in 2019, and was a huge hit too. I'm going to show you the full "movie" version which is a lot of fun to watch!
And now it's my turn! I am the proud father of a lovely 16-month old daughter. In this recent post, I show a few clips about why I think she's going to be a music lover who will enjoy playing instruments - it's very cute!
Soon she's going to be old enough to do those kinds of songs with actions like "Head Shoulders Knees and Toes"... in fact I have seen her do the crying baby and shooshing mommy when "Wheels on the Bus" plays! So I thought I would write her a song of our own with some actions in the chorus! I call it the "Naughty Cat Song", and it's inspired by the antics of our very fluffy white ragdoll girl-cat Bunny, and our velvety chocolate-coloured boy-cat Mr Pickles.

Before I go: Please look out for my weekly cover request post on Thursday! 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! Please have a think about what song you would like me to tackle for you?
Lyrics for "The Naughty Cat Song" by 
When I see a naughty cat I smack its naughty bum (I don't really it's just a song!!)
Don't you be a naughty cat I'll smack your naughty bum
When I see a naughty cat I smack its naughty bum
So be good or else you'd better run!
If you scratch the furniture, if you whimper in the car
If you growl at strangers and bite your poor grandpa
If you're yelling for the treats and you're already fat
It's clear to see that you're and naughty cat, and...
When I see a naughty cat I smack its naughty bum
Don't you be a naughty cat I'll smack your naughty bum
When I see a naughty cat I smack its naughty bum
So be good or else you'd better run!
If you sleep throughout the day, and then you play all night
If a trip to the vet means it's time to have a fight
If you knock things off the table just to see that they go splat
It's clear to see that you're and naughty cat, and...
When I see a naughty cat I smack its naughty bum
Don't you be a naughty cat I'll smack your naughty bum
When I see a naughty cat I smack its naughty bum
So be good or else you'd better run!
If you clog the poor vacuum, with all your naughty fluff
If you've got your tongue stuck on your fluffy ruff
If you're yelling at the phone when we're trying to have a chat
It's clear to see that you're and naughty cat, and...
When I see a naughty cat I smack its naughty bum
Don't you be a naughty cat I'll smack your naughty bum
When I see a naughty cat I smack its naughty bum
So be good or else you'd better run!
