We Need To Talk About Snapshots...
Below are 15 stars of popular music from days gone by.
You may wonder why the number of pictures has grown, or why it varies from week to week. It's simply because when I settle on a theme, I find there are too many songs that I don't want to leave out. Plus, one player's "Who the hell is that?" is another player's "Blimey - I remember them... didn't expect Rol to include them here!" Such is the diversity of musical knowledge of the wonderful people who visit this page on a Saturday morning.
Anyway, here are some pop stars. Who are they and what connects their songs?
15. Non-White Raconteur.
14. One bed flat for family of ten.
13. Too busy singing.
12. He was always wrong in French.
11. Stork joins hawk to create a weird hybrid.
10. The UK's chartered professional body for mathematicians puts on a bit of weight in their luxury abode.
9. C disappears fast.
8. Zeus gave nan a mixed message.
7. Hedgehog children.
6. Goat, flippin'... the end of Christine.
5. Small horses, still kids, you've never seen them before... but they're joining up together!
4. Lights on a flying machine.
3. Fake lists contain everything you need to know.
2. I have a legal document stating that I can write this clue.
