Hello music lovers and Hello hivers!
It's Tuesday in some parts of the world already and you know what that means – time to share some tunes for the brilliant #threetunetuesday initiative started by 
I have been trying to get some picture posts out but it is not easy and not quick. Having to choose the correct photos that I want to show, edit them where appropriate and then write the story to accompany them!
The one I am currently doing is about a daunder through a Royal Burgh...
What the fluff is daunder?
Do you know this Scottish word?
"Daunder" is a Scottish word that means to walk or stroll in a slow, leisurely, or aimless way. It implies a relaxed and unhurried pace, often for pleasure, without a specific destination in mind. It is something I do once or twice weekly.
So we have three songs that would do well in the daunder category!
It is Tuesday and that of course means that it's #ttt or #threetunetuesday and so it's time to share some tunes with you!
Do go support
Long live #ttt 😁🎼 and #threetunetuesday
Where to start!
My inspiration as I mentioned earlier is Daunder
I scoured my brain for songs about walking and had a couple in mind. I then searched online and added another one.
Today's "Three Tunes Tuesday" is dedicated to the wonderful art of Daundering.
So, for this week’s #ThreetuneTuesday we have three tunes about daundering or walking.
The perfect excuse for a leisurely, aimless stroll. These three songs are perfect for that kind of unhurried journey.
First up, a meditative and jazzy piece to set the pace
Tune 1 ~ Traffic - "Walking in the Wind"
Traffic was an English rock band formed in 1967, known for their blend of psychedelic rock, jazz, and folk.
This track Walking in the Wind with its laid-back groove is from their 1971 album The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys. The song has a wonderfully relaxed, wandering feel that makes you feel like you're meandering through a landscape with no particular destination in mind. It's the perfect way to start off with our daundering adventure!
Now let's come forward to this millennium and some rustic blues. This is actually the extra song that I went searching for!
Tune 2 ~ Seasick Steve - "Walkin' Man"
Seasick Steve is an American blues musician, known for his unique style and use of homemade instruments. This song, from his 2006 album Dog House Music, is the perfect second song for our daundering. It doesn't matter where we are going!
Finally being Scottish I just have to include the ultimate anthem for a long walk!
Tune 3 ~ The Proclaimers - "I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)"
The Proclaimers are a Scottish duo known for their distinctive accents and infectious folk-rock sound. T
Originally from Edinburgh they also spent time as youngsters in Auchtermuchty, Fife which is just a few miles from where I live now.
This iconic track is from their 1988 album, Sunshine on Leith. The upbeat tempo and famous lyrics about walking a thousand miles just to be with someone perfectly capture the determined yet joyful spirit of a long, rambling walk.
Talking about Scottish words, did you hear the lyric about havering?
To "haver" means to talk foolishly, to babble, or to speak nonsense. It can also be used as a noun, where "havers" (often in the plural) means nonsense or rubbish.
From the song ...
"And if I haver, yeah I know I'm gonna be, I'm gonna be the man who's havering to you"
That's potentially the theme for next week ...
Three songs about havering, especially when you've had a few 🍺's or 🍷's!!
So there you have it – three tunes that go well with your next Daunder!
Which was your favourite walking tune or is it one of the many others that could have been chosen? Or have you never heard of these artists?!?
What tunes are you sharing this Tuesday? Let me know in the comments below!

I wish that you all have a brilliant happy fun and terrific Tuesday until we meet again enjoy your tunes 🎶🎵🎶
