Saturday Snapshots #83


Post office clerks put up signs saying "position closed"
And secretaries turn off typewriters and put on their coats
Janitors padlock the gates for security guards to patrol
And bachelors phone up their friends for a drink
While the married ones turn on a chat show
But they'll all be doing Snapshots on Saturday morning...

Identify ten top tunes and their performers from the clues below, please...

(Who says Nothing Ever Happens on a Saturday!?)


10. Devastating hurricane with burnt feet.


9. Which Engine Type gets you furthest from Oklahoma?


8. Shroud stops car with paracetamol.


7. Limerick lad finds friend in the blizzard.


6. Torturer joins Suggs on stage.


5. Mausoleum launches noose into space.


4. Fake news causes sword fight.


3. Substance friars shake the street.


2. Vegas wrap overhead.


1. Itinerants found beneath pier.



Make sure you're not Always The Last To Know: tune in tomorrow morning for the answers...

      .......by cheating (wiki) I have got the answer. But having played said song on YouTube I cans safely say I had never heard it before. Ever.

      As you've not named it, I can't be sure whether to ask if you wore noise-cancelling earplugs for the whole of 1997 or not.
