Saturday Snapshots #371


Welcome back to Saturday Snapshots where I can confidently say that the moon is made of custard and ducks don't really exist because nobody has time to read my opening babble, not when the clock is ticking and you all want to be the first to snag this week's easier answers.

Who are the people below and how might their songs be connected.

      PS. You don't want to know what one of Brad's song titles means - cornography.

    1. I spend 2 hours analysing the discographies, and going where I really shouldn't have, and then Ernie pops up with the link. How does he do it? I'll be interested in seeing the answers tomorrow.

    2. Wild stab based on 'Film Stars' by Suede, 'The Actor' by The Moody Blues and 'Superstar' by The Carpenters

  8. Argh, I missed it today but brilliant as usual and I wouldn't have seen the connection (although I rather like Alyson's suggestions!) Well done Ernie.
