Snapshots #324: A Top Ten Reindeer Songs

Happy Christmas Eve!

Here are some Reindeer Songs...


10. Truck that took the late James Broad's indie power-pop band to gigs.

The late James Broad was the lead singer of the excellent Silver Sun, responsible for the loudest gig I ever attended. These guys though are the...

Silversun Pickups - Dots and Dashes (Enough Already)

And that's as close as I could get to a song about Dasher.

9. If we have a White Christmas, these ladies will have no problem getting around.

Sister Sledge - He's The Greatest Dancer

8. Go ahead, punk, make my day by giving me something that is helpful or beneficial.

Clint Eastwood said "Go ahead, punk..." Something that is helpful or beneficial is a boon.

The Clint Boon Experience - Comet Theme No. 1

7. Someone's sneaking round the corner. Could it be Mack...?

The Knife - Christmas Reindeer

6. Befuddled by Fat Hell.

"Fat Hell" is an anagram. That's Brix Smith fronting, not Mark E. As she does on this tune...

The Fall - Vixen 

5. A body of representatives.

The Delegation - Dance, Prance, Boogie

And that's as close as I could get to Prancer.

4. Award winning lady meets man of ash.

She won an Emmy. He's in Ash.

Emmy The Great & Tim Wheeler - Jesus The Reindeer

3. He made OK cameos.

Anagram!

Sam Cooke - Cupid

2. Hard to make out who it is.

Badly Drawn Boy - Donna & Blitzen

1. All these guys (and plenty more).


Clockwise from top right...





Don't forget to leave a carrot out for the reindeer tonight.
