Snapshots #221: A Top Ten New Year Songs


It was hardly the toughest link to work out, but how often does Saturday Snapshots fall on New Year's Day? Here are the Auld Lang Answers...


10. Often mistaken for space aliens.

I was watching a documentary recently where the US government claimed that when people saw UFOs, they were actually seeing U2 spy planes. Which aren't shaped like flying saucers at all. Far more likely they're seeing Bono's halo...

U2 - New Year's Day

9. Half T-Rex, half King.

T-Rex was a Dinosaur... half of that almost gives you Dina.

And then there's Carol King.

Dina Carroll - The Perfect Year

8. Found inside Superb All Boys Club.

SuperB ALL BOYs Club.

Ballboy - Welcome To The New Year

7. A Trifid Skit.

Anagram! (Not a brilliant one, I'll admit.)

First Aid Kit - New Year's Eve

6. Album of the film of the town.

The album of the film is the Motion Picture Soundtrack. These guys are the...

Motion City Soundtrack - Together We'll Ring In The New Year

5. He gets on Agatha's Wick.

John Wick versus Agatha Christie. I'd watch that movie.

Allo Darlin' - Will You Please Spend New Years Eve With Me?

3. Double Acne.

Anagram!

2. Eat brains.

Not an anagram! Zombies eat brains.

Wishing you all a better year than the last two...
