Snapshots #190: A Top Ten Sick Songs


Perhaps not the nicest subject matter I've ever used to connect songs, but not a bad set of tunes.

When I think of sick, I think of our cats puking up furballs... any excuse for a cat camera pic!

Answers... sorry if they get a bit heavy this week!


10. Count Ferdinand was a heavy metal pioneer.

Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin, that would be.

Led Zeppelin - Sick Again

9. Welsh bays.

Cardigan Bay.

The Cardigans - Sick And Tired

8. The last ding dong. 

Ding Dong, Avon calling. The last time they call would presumably be Z-von.

Warren Zevon - Don't Let Us Get Sick

7. Found in a dirty, wet hive.

Mudhoney - Touch Me, I'm Sick

6. Montgomery, Huntsville, Mobile.

Three towns in Alabama.

The Alabama 3 - Too Sick To Pray

5. Thank Robbie for teeing off.

Take the T off thank and you get Hank, with Robbie Williams...

Hank Williams - Lovesick Blues

4. Bothered?

Disturbed - Down With The Sickness

If that's too loud for you, may I suggest this version instead...?

Richard Cheese - Down With The Sickness

3. Bee, birds, gopher.

It's an anagram!

Phoebe Bridgers - Motion Sickness

2. Disc knitters.

And another one!

Tindersticks - City Sickness

1. Guitar playing rabbit floats up and down.


Cue the first ever lyric video...


You don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows, but it'll blow more Snapshots your way next Saturday...

  1. Hope you're ok Rol. Your absence this week was a tad worrying and now we are having songs about being sick. Take care - The summer break is surely in sight.

    1. Thanks, Alyson. Nothing to worry about, just the stuff I mentioned before and something else which I'll write about in time, whichever way it pans out.

      Might not be back beyond SS for a couple of weeks though. This week will be pretty mental, but then I'm away on holiday for a week to recover...

    2. Good to hear you’re going to have a holiday. Some light at the end of the mental week tunnel.

    4. That’s sick Rol as the youths would say.
      Enjoy your well earned break when it comes
