Snapshots #419 - Legs & Feet Songs

This is Betty Grable. You can't see her legs, but she had them insured for a million bucks. That was back when a million bucks was worth something.

Here are ten songs that go below the waistline...

15. I'm sick of quiche for tea - and so is Woody!

12. Trump had one... so did Babel.

Tower Of Power - What Is Hip?

1. You’re always on the run now.

Lyrics from Gloria by Laura Branigan.

If Ernie guessed the link yesterday in double quick time, it may well be that the idea was already in his head.

When he emailed me with the idea for last week's SS, he mentioned he'd been trying to put together a Legs and Feet Snapshots, but went with the Left Right one instead. I almost replied, "Glad you did - because I've got a Legs & Feet Snapshots ready to go... and then I thought, "D'oh, if you do that, you'll give him the answer!" So I kept schtum. But great minds and all that...

More of this nonsense next week...
