Saturday Snapshots #132: The Answers


I know it's Sunday morning, Denzel, but I expect people to at least change out of their dressing gowns if they're going to play Saturday Snapshots. Then again, if you got game... you probably don't need an Equalizer... to achieve Glory.

Answers...


10. Vampire funeral held at home of boat fronts.


Bow-house?

Suit yourself.

Bauhaus - Bela Lugosi's Dead

I find it amusing that the official Bauhaus channel on youtube illustrates this tune with the poster of a Jessica Alba romcom. That's goth!

9. Amateur actors warn you about Sammy Davis Junior.


Amateur dramatics.

Sammy Davis Jr. was the Candyman.

The Dramatics - Beware of the Man (With the Candy in his Hand)

You may not know that tune, but you owe it to yourself to give it a spin.

8. Slade finalists circumnavigate.


Slade finalists is an anagram.

Lisa Stansfield - All Around The World

7. Michael, Clive, Mark... and I... buy a Scottish umbrella.


Michael, Clive and Mark are all Owens.

10cc sang about The Dean & I.

Dean Owens - Raining In Glasgow

You may not know that tune, but you owe it to yourself to give it a spin.

6. Greet Jeff Bridges while making cold cocktails.


Jeff Bridges is The Dude. I keep telling you that.

Cold cocktails would be made in a cooler shaker.

Kula Shaker - Hey Dude!

5. Releasing this tune is morally just.


Released = unchained.

Morally just = righteous.

The Righteous Brothers - Unchained Melody

4. Just why does the van have a hole in the middle? I ought to have been the one to get that.


Just Y + Von (a van with a O in the middle).

Just = fair.

Yvonne Fair - It Should've Been Me

3. Alpine artwork causes loose plates.


"Alpine artwork" is an anagram.

Karine Polwart - Faultlines

2. Massachusetts killers refuse to watch another Marvel movie.


The Boston Stranglers.

The Stranglers - No More Heroes

Whatever happened to Leon Trotsky?

1. Miss Jones keeps the belt together on male jeans.


Miss Jones is Grace.

Belt buckle + male gene (Y) = Buckley.




It's a Magnificent Seven days (well, I guess six and a half, depending on when you read this) until Saturday Snapshots returns...

    2. Thanks, sounds like you're a fan of their debut LP

    3. If I remember right, it was those songs as singles around 1970/71 that I heard on the radio. Some DJ played The Doors "Riders on the Storm" and "In The Rain" back to back because they had the sound of rainfall on them - and I was hooked! :)
