Saturday Snapshots #102: The Answers

Some like it hot a Saturday morning, but while gentlemen prefer blondes, the rest of us prefer Saturday Snapshots.

Now it's Sunday, so here are the answers. Boop-boop-be-doo.


10. A Partridge exclaims, "d'you wanna scrap?"

a-ha - Take On Me

9. Eagle retrievers mixed up in brothels revery.

Eagles are birds, retrievers are dogs.

"brothels revery" is a really easy anagram.

The Everly Brothers - Bird Dog

8. Killed a mockingbird then drove off in a tiny emerald.

Harper Lee wrote To Kill A Mockingbird.

Rather obscure Irish band, although I did feature them here in my Top Ten Songs About American Writers. What do you mean you don't remember!?! I do love this song though.

Little Green Cars - Harper Lee

7. Shhh... they've got their guns.

Annies, get your pistols.

The Pistol Annies - Hush Hush

6. A brief continental burn.

Asia is a continent.

A brief burn might come in the heat of the moment.

Asia - Heat of the Moment

5. Two apples... but not for Steven Dalglish.

Steven Gerrard and Kenny Daglish are, I'm reliably informed, involved in "the glorious game". See, I can do sports-related clues!

New York is the Big Apple.

Gerard Kenny - New York, New York

4. I sense that a Western Scott has you rockin' and a'reelin'.

Randolph Scott was an actor in westerns.

Rockin' and a reelin' is what Barbara Ann got you doing.

I sense... feelings.

Barbara Randolph - I Got A Feeling

3. Plebs in space.

Plebs are riff raff. One of them is a young William of Bragg.

Riff Raff - I Wanna Be A Cosmonaut

2. Skinny queen sees Brian, Carl and Al return to the city.

A skinny queen, obviously, is Thin Lizzy.

Brian, Carl & Al are the Beach Boys... leaving the beach for the town.

Thin Lizzy - The Boys Are Back In Town

1. If I were... to catch the paper boy? I'd be a coyote botherer.

If I were a rich man?

"I catch the paperboy" comes from Modern Love.

Happy birthday, Mr. President... Saturday Snapshots returns next week.
