Saturday Snapshots #136



Here we are at the Inception of another Saturday Snapshots.

Take a peek at the blinders below and identify ten artists and ten top tunes, please.

Hopefully none of them will give you the Red Eye.


10. Oy, Arnold (on Dover Beach), aka Ralph-like.


9. Crowned on 42, 59 & 110... sounds like a heartbreaker.


8. Saint, on the Sabbath, brings deity down to earth.


7. CIA junior headquarters finds a brilliant new hobby (with Hermits).


6. Johnny shouts Hey! to the lorry driver and causes a crash that sounds like where #10 came from.


5. A Wainwright double negative.


4. Pours... just like the guy below.


3. Swollen Cyndi lures rats with romance.


2. Mr. White's nightwear identifies #1 missing person.


1. Triple your enjoyment on the shore, lads.


Don't worry, you won't have to wait 28 Days Later for the answers... they'll be here tomorrow morning.

      However, now you identified the and, that might help someone with the song for #2.

    The Langley Schools Music Project - "I'm Into Something Good".

    Sure of the band, and it must be a Hermans Hermits song.

      Not a band as such. More exactly what the name suggests.

    So we need #10, which will help with the song from 6. Or vice versa.

      Dover Beach was written by Matthew Arnold. Beautiful poem.

      The American rock band The Fugs did a fine cover of it on their album Tenderness Junction.

      Good tries, George. You need to include aka for the anagram to work.
