Snapshots #237: A Top Ten Weather Songs

To keep all you football fans happy, I asked the owner of National League club Wrexham to introduce this week's answers. Mainly because I couldn't find any pictures of weather men or weather ladies holding cameras. No, not even John Kettley


10. Found in a citrus trifle.

Lemon Jelly - Nice Weather For Ducks

9. Twice as much bother for a Wonder, a sunbeam and a Williams.

Stevie Wonder, a Ray of sunshine and Vaughan Williams... lead to Double Trouble.

Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble - Couldn't Stand The Weather

8. Samantha.

Samantha was the witch in Bewitched. Of course.

B*witched - Blame It On The Weatherman

7. Scully catches Christian.

Gillian 'Scully' Anderson played a police detective tracking down Jamie 'Christian from Fifty Shades' Dornan in a TV series called The Fall.

The Fall - British People In Hot Weather

6. Conceited peacocks.

The Popinjays - Thinking About The Weather

5. Furcula & Wheeler's band.

A Furcula is a wishbone. Tim Wheeler's band is Ash.

Wishbone Ash - Bad Weather Blues 

4. Talk in tuts.

Anagram!

KT Tunstall - Under The Weather

3. Rowan & Vangelis.

Rowan & Martin, Jon & Vangelis.

John Martyn - Bless The Weather

2. Home for deceased Corvidae.

Crow-dead house?

Crowded House - Weather With You

1. Piper's vacation.


Billie Piper goes on Holiday.

My favourite version of this song...


Yes, in case you were wondering, that is Ryan 'Deadpool' Reynolds at the top of the page, and yes, he and one of his Hollywood mates did buy Wrexham. Who are doing very well this year, by all accounts. See how my football knowledge increases every day?

More Snapshots next week. Weather permitting...
