The #TuneTuesday theme this week is #UnexpectedDelights. Mine is Aretha Franklin's cover of "Eleanor Rigby".

I didn't even know she'd done a version of the song until about 6 months ago, when I picked up a used copy of her 𝘈𝘵𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘤 𝘚𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘭𝘦𝘴 𝘊𝘰𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯. And she absolutely *slays* it, turning it into something new and very much hers. So good!

I got a lot of #UnexpectedDelights for #TuneTuesday. I had no idea what to expect from Jung Kook & Usher. Mostly because I hadn't listened to BTS at that point. This song got me listening to them and I like what I'm hearing
