Mentions of "photographs" in lyrics

[Jah Womble]

Spotify says only #3 - can you guess 1st and 2nd?

Probably Making Your Mind Up and Land of Make Believe? (Most likely the other way around - I imagine it would be that in terms of sales, anyway.)

Never trust the public.

[Toby Gymshorts]

Land of Make Believe?

EDIT: Thought I was replying to Sits there but see JW got there before me.

[Sits]

MYMU was #1 with LOMB #2. Like Jah I’d have placed them the other way round, but MYMU probably gets a lot of Euro-love.

There was a Bucks Fizz musical, telling the story of the Fizz, called Night Of A Thousand Jay Astons - we saw it during the Edinburgh festival about 15 years ago, it’s one of those where you recognise more songs than you thought you did.

All parts were played by 3 drag artists and a small lady, who took turns on a song by song basis to play the part of Jay Aston.

The whole thing was a bit of an hour long Cheryl Baker character assassination. I’d go again if they ever revived it.

[Toby Gymshorts]

Isn't Jay Aston the Brexit Party arsehole?

[Jah Womble]

Yep, she stood for Brexit in Kensington a couple of years ago.

Nice way to repay the continent that basically made her career. (That Eurovision victory was forty years ago this coming Sunday, [elderly] fact fans...)

I saw Bucks Fizz at the Dorchester.

[Antepli Ejderha]

The Dorchester was a club in Wolverhampton, it must have been mid 90s. I've no idea which original member was involved. I was also too pissed to remember how bad they were.

[Gangster Octopus]

I've never seen Bucks Fizz, but I have drunk Bucks Fizz. Which is a drink, not a pop group.

"A flash photograph, is the only light you see" - Kiss and Tell by Bryan Ferry

Wanking Over a Pornographic Polaroid of an Ex-Girlfriend Who Died, by Kunt and the Gang. Poignant.

[Jah Womble]

I've never seen Bucks Fizz, but I have drunk Bucks Fizz. Which is a drink, not a pop group.

No, that’s Buck’s Fizz.

Chart-topping eighties pop acts for some reason don’t need to use apostrophes. (See also: Dexys.)

Pink's Family Portrait is implicitly about a photograph:

In our family portrait we look pretty happy
We look pretty normal, let's go back to that
In our family portrait we look pretty happy
Let's play pretend, act like it goes naturally

I'm willing to have this disqualified on the grounds it could theoretically be a painting or a pencil sketch or charcoal and chalk or something, though.

I take pictures
Photographic pictures

~ Depeche Mode, Photographic

The Mode at one point had a 100% strike rate of getting these onto their albums. The above-mentioned Photographic was on debut Speak & Spell, and subsequently its follow-up A Broken Frame included A Photograph Of You:

What good is a photograph of you
Every time I look at it
It makes me feel blue
...
What good is a colour print

[Sporting]

Entitled: The Fall:

Remember with this photograph
Take care of photograph
Drowned in plastic
You've got good reason to laugh

[Antepli Ejderha]

Kraftwerk The Model mentions the cover of a magazine, surely a photograph is implied here.

[Wouter D]

Kraftwerk The Model mentions the cover of a magazine, surely a photograph is implied here.

The German lyrics are "Ihr neues Titelbild ist einfach fabelhaft", of which the Titelbild surely qualifies for this thread. More so than Pink's family fingerpainting.

[Various Artist]

A passing reference during a particularly scathing passage in Pink Floyd's When The Tigers Broke Free, from Roger Water's 1983 polemic on war The Final Cut:

And kind old King George
Sent Mother a note
When he heard that father was gone.
It was, I recall,
In the form of a scroll,
With gold leaf adorned,
And I found it one day
In a drawer of old photographs, hidden away.
And my eyes still grow damp to remember
His Majesty signed
With his own rubber stamp

Also scathing, if a tad less deep, was Robbie Williams on 1998's No Regrets, at the height of his then-discontent with his past in Take That:

Remember the photographs (insane)
The ones where we all laugh (so lame)
We were having the time of our lives
Well thank you it was a real blast
