Tune for Tuesday for Week of 12/26/2017: "7PM" from Animal Crossing

This week's Tune for Tuesday, "7PM" from Animal Crossing, is the last one for 2017. And I figured, after such a stressful, crazy year; what more reason do I need to share a relaxing, laid-back song from my past? But seriously, this is one game whose world I DEFINITELY wouldn't mind living in!

Tune for Tuesday for Week of 12/12/2017

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cSPYUaWf2kY

This week's Tune for Tuesday, “Future In My Hands” and “Room DESPAIR” from Devil May Cry, is a double-feature, with one of the two being a song I've wanted to use for quite some time. But with the fate of net neutrality hanging in the balance, I just hope I'll be able to do more of these like I have been over the last few years. And look, I know not everyone takes the time to listen to these when I do post them, regardless of how many websites I share my Tune for Tuesdays on. Heck, I don't even do it every week anymore, just when I have a song in mind and I'm feeling up to the task. Even so, I know there are some people who do enjoy these other than myself, and I want to keep entertaining them. I've tried sending messages to those with the ability to save net neutrality, but I have no idea if any of them have made a difference. I'd use my phone to call as well, but while I'm completely fine with talking to strangers in person, I'm REALLY uncomfortable communicating verbally with people I don't know over the phone, especially with the stakes as high as they are. I feel like I'd do more harm than good if I'm too panicky to get my point across. But if you don't have this stupid problem of mine, and if you enjoy my Tune for Tuesdays, PLEASE do whatever you can to help prevent the internet from going the same way as television, where the only options available are whatever your provider dictates. As for now, I'm fighting the only way I feel like I can possibly make a positive difference at this point: raising awareness alongside my weekly song picks.

Tune for Tuesday for Week of 10/17/2017: "The Trouble Man" by Eikichi Yazawa

This week's Tune for Tuesday, "The Trouble Man" by Eikichi Yazawa, is from one of my all-time favorite franchises, a series I know care more for then its current owners. Care to prove me wrong, Capcom? Then release the expected sales figures of Darkstalkers Resurrection as well as the realized sales that led you to claim it was a failure, and make a brand-new, non-collection Darkstalkers that's UNQUESTIONABLY good!

Tune for Tuesday for Week of 9/19/2017

This week's Tune for Tuesday is a recurring song from a show that is VERY quickly becoming one of my favorites: Isekai Shokudou, aka Restaurant to Another World. Admittedly, I haven't found the actual name of the song itself yet (I have a theory based on this page, but no official confirmation yet), but this song I feel embodies so much of what I love about this show. A heartwarming atmosphere, where the stress of the day just melts away with every bite and sip. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do! Let's dig in!

This week's Tune for Tuesday is an absolutely incredible cover of "Kami-iro Awase" from  Danganronpa 3: The End of Hope's Peak High School - Side: Despair, as performed by adrisaurus. Seriously, I cannot get any more pumped than I already am for Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony coming to Steam in the US next month.

Tune for Tuesday for Week of 7/18/2017: "Shake a Tail Feather" from The Blues Brothers



This week's Tune for Tuesday (admittedly the first one in a while), "Shake a Tail Feather" from The Blues Brothers, comes straight to you all from a movie I've finally had the pleasure of watching for the first time recently. I can easily understand how this film became such a classic!

Tune for Tuesday for Week of 5/30/2017: "Life Will Change" by AmaLee


This week's Tune for Tuesday, "Life Will Change" by AmaLee, is a brilliant cover of an awesome song from a fantastic game that I find to be very relevant to current events...Seriously, there are times where I would love nothing more than to join the Phantom Thieves of Hearts and fight the corruption of the people in our society. As soon as I've finished Persona 5, I'm so exploring the real life Phan-site...

Tune for Tuesday for Week of 5/23/2017: "Great Balls of Fire" by Jerry Lee Lewis


This week's Tune for Tuesday, "Great Balls of Fire" by Jerry Lee Lewis, is one I've been meaning to share since I saw The Million Dollar Quartet at the Paper Mill Playhouse last month. And let me tell you, it was AMAZING! Does anyone know which (if any, 'cause I've yet to hear any songs from Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash, or Elvis Presley on New York Classic Rock) radio station I can hear pieces by these fantastic artists on while going to and from work? Regardless, this song is a classic (I've even seen it referenced in Mega Man Starforce 2, as well as Blue Suede Shoes in Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney), and I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do!

Tune for Tuesday for Week of 4/25/2017: "Wake Up, Get Up, Get Out There" from Persona 5

This week's Tune for Tuesday, "Wake Up, Get Up, Get Out There" from Persona 5, is the opening theme to a game I've been super-stoked to play for a long time, and finally started this past weekend. And after months of listening to the soundtrack, I have to say that I'm quite enjoying it, even though I'm REALLY not that far into it. Also, both the song's message and just the theme of the game is something I find very therapeutic given current events.

Tune for Tuesday for Week of 4/4/2017: "King of Spain" by Moxy Fruvous


This week's Tune for Tuesday, "King of Spain" by Moxy Fruvous, is something I first heard on Radio Dead Air a while back, and I just love how incredibly silly this song is. I hope you all enjoy this goofy melody as much as I do!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YSxh_MIFzQ

This week's Tune for Tuesday, "Leyline Rhymes" by Richie Branson, is an incredible tribute to my favorite show, one that truly captures how much I love Outlaw Star. Really hope to see it back on the airwaves at some point, but Funimation is sure taking their sweet time releasing the Blu-Ray...Ah well. Guess my DVDs and the internet will have to suffice for now.

Tune for Tuesday for Week of 3/21/2017: "Help!" by The Beatles


This week’s Tune for Tuesday, “Help!” by The Beatles, is both a long-time favorite of mine as well as a sentiment I’ve been expressing quite a bit lately for various reasons (Still waiting for the Elite Beat Agents to show up). Regardless, I hope you all enjoy this awesome song!

This week's Tune for Tuesday, "Let's Do It, Let's Fall in Love", is a song I learned this past weekend at a Lyrics & Lyricists event dedicated to Cole Porter. Not only that, it's rather fitting given what day it is. Enjoy!

Tune for Tuesday for Week of 1/31/2017: "Golden Forest" from 1080° Snowboarding


This week's Tune for Tuesday, "Golden Forest" from 1080° Snowboarding, is out of gratitude for the snowfall we had earlier today. Makes me want to either go out and make snow angels, play my Nintendo 64, or both at the same time...actually, that might not be a good idea.

Tune for Tuesday for Week of 1/3/2017: "Traverse Town" from Kingdom Hearts by Smooth McGroove


This week's Tune for Tuesday, "Traverse Town" from Kingdom Hearts as performed by Smooth McGroove, represents several things to me: fond memories of a beloved video game, the amazing passion and creativity of talented fans, the glorious potential of fan works, and one of my favorite aspects of nighttime. Nothing quite like winding down at the end of the day, y'know?
