I'd just like to thank you for coming here rather than watching Saturday Kitchen. (Is that still on? Was Jamie Oliver ever on it? Probably not.)
Below are ten artists to identify and then work out what connects their songs. Bish bash bosh - off you go.
10. Get some more tissue for Marie McDonald.
9. House bird for a couple who are Long & Little, and from the Hills.
8. Proby bangs the wall.
7. A bit like gnus.
6. At the heart of all curmudgeons.
5. Cruise, like 7.
4. Named after their “dreary hometown”.
3. Never known to gather a handmaid.
2. Cuddle!
1. The Corrs, Janet Jackson, Del Shannon
Answers tomorrow morning. Pukka!
8 is PJ Harvey
ReplyDelete8. PJ (Proby) Harvey
ReplyDeleteis 1 The Runaways?
ReplyDelete10 Flesh for Lulu
ReplyDelete9. John Martyn & Kathy Mattea
ReplyDelete3. Stones
1. The Runaways
John Medd
John and Beverly Martyn surely?
Delete3. Rolling Stones
ReplyDeleteA Rolling Stone gathers no Elizabeth Moss
Delete6 Mud
ReplyDeleteOf course! I thought a couple of the guitarists looked really familiar but from before their colourful rock and rock revival period and from before Rob Davis started to dress up in his flamboyant outfits/ earrings.
Delete3. The answer I have worked out doesn't fit the picture. So I won't post it
ReplyDelete5. Tom Bond!?
ReplyDeleteWell, that's half right. Sort of.
ReplyDeleteBut that 7 has nothing to do with 007
DeleteBuffalo Tom
DeleteAn incendiary selection this week...
ReplyDeleteA few bangers
ReplyDelete7. Either Computer Software (not a catchy name for a band) or the Wildebeests?
ReplyDeleteI wondered if it was an anagram but Bail Kit Genus isn't too catchy a name either.
DeleteVirtually there, Alyson. It's Wild Beasts.
Delete4. Portishead
ReplyDelete2. Embrace?
And we're done. Clean sweep this week. Thanks, everyone
ReplyDeleteI am familiar with the music of 5 or 6 of today's artistes, and there's only ONE band of whom I'd never heard (not #3)
DeleteYou hip young thing, George.
DeleteThe link this week - sorry if I made an ill-judged comment. Got to be careful with this one.
ReplyDeleteHaving read through your comments, I'm completely at a loss, Alyson. The link was appropriate to the day.
DeleteMy comment re the link seemed to magically disappear - wasn't sure if it was because I used a word that is not acceptable.
DeleteThe mind boggles!
DeleteSorry to keep banging on about this one but if you didn’t delete my comment because it contained the word ‘explos**e’ does that mean the system did? Just curious how these things work.
DeleteAlyson
DeleteI've never come across the word explosive being censored before...
DeleteAnd it doesn't look like it was censored then.
DeleteThe mystery remains.
DeleteIndeed
