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 38th 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... and 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.
This week I would like to pick John Lennon... after he went solo (let's leave The Beatles for another week!)
Of course "Imagine" has to be one of the songs, but let's leave it to the end! Let's start with the beautiful song "Jealous Guy"... Here is the original:
After that, let's try a song with a very simple chord structure (literally A-minor to G-major and back! Hahaha) but some very amazing lyrics over that. Some younger people might think that "Working Class Hero" is a Green Day song... but no, they were covering John Lennon! Here is the original:
Finally, let's get around to the inevitable "Imagine". This is usually on lists that try to sum up the best songs ever written. It can be a bit of a controversial song... is it asking for full blown Communism that usually tries to get rid of religion and private ownership of possessions... or is it just advocating for Peace and the end to all the conflicts that have been fought over boundaries, possessions and Religion? Either way, it is an amazing song. Here is the original:
Sadly, John Lennon was assassinated in 1980... Imagine what other songs he might still have written?...
So that's week 103 done and dusted! I hope you enjoyed the John Lennon songs! Which song was your favourite? Did I miss an important one to you?
And so, which artist will I do three covers of next week, for TTT number 104? I hope you tune in to find out and thank you so much for clicking/watching/reading this time!!
