Saturday Snapshots #32




If you're one of those people who thinks that life goes on, long after the thrill of living is gone... then Saturday Snapshots is here to put a little thrill back into your Saturday morning.

Identify ten artists and songs from the clues below, please...


10. Young Strummer wasn't a pretty boy - and he didn't think much of you either.


9. Muse over these siblings - their affection spills out.


8. Followers of Paul and Jimmy are seemingly zero.


7. She's electric - a faux murder mixes with no mutants.


6. Father John takes Pee Wee's place to date a lady plasterer cum brain surgeon.


5. Steve Rogers unites with Young, Diamond, Tennant, Hannon, Finn, Armstrong, Gaiman, Kinnock, Patrick-Harris and Sedaka. Again!


4. A ceramic dick.


3. A bunch of hairdressers will murder me this evening.


2. Can you eat a huge apple in 60 seconds at the Regatta, boss?


1. Is this Morrissey's moggy? If so, I'll shoot it.


Answers as soon as I've finished suckin' on chilli dog outside the Tastee Freez. Or tomorrow morning.

    1. You're very close. What did Pee Wee go on?

    2. Ah - Misty's Big Adventure (purely by deduction)

      Delete
    3. Song - She Fills The Spaces? - Had to look them up though.

  8. 3 The clue suggests the song might be Kill Me CE Sour.
    But that don't look like Golden Earring (?).

    Mr Teezy-Weezy?

  9. No. 4 - Gotta go now to prepare Eurovision party food (!!) but the band in No. 3 look as if they are from circa 1983 by the hairstyles. Is No. 7 something to do with Oasis/Liam/Noel and is No. 2 something to do with the song It Only Takes a Minute?

  10. 2 is Don Henley - New York Minute

  11. By the way - I was here at 9 a.m. and there was nothing but that Lloyd Cole gurning up the place. Pshaw!

    ReplyDelete
  12. Good clue for the Don Henley question though.

  13. 7 is Melissa Auf der Maur (and a clever anagram in there!) but don't know the song...

    1. You've done the hard work.

    2. Well we have her single Real A Lie on the shelves here and she's wearing the same outfit on the cover. Erm... is it Real A Lie?

      Delete
    3. I'm confusing myself - it's Taste You we've got with that cover outfit. I guess if I throw enough songs at this, one of them's got to be right.....

      Delete
  14. So... 3, 6 and 8 still to get. The latter two are pretty difficult, but you all know 3.

    1. Any clues for No. 8? Which Paul and Jimmy - McCartney? Cliff? Page? Weller? So many.

      Delete
    2. Difficult to even place the era as quite a good quality picture so probably relatively recent but dressed in retro kind of gear. Hmm...

      Delete
    3. Who's Jimmy Weller? Or Paul Page? Perhaps that will help...

      Delete
    4. No need. Martin cracked it.

      Delete
  15. No. 3 - The Cutting Crew - I Died In Your Arms Tonight

  16. 8. Apparently Nuthin', Young Disciples
