Finger-snapping songs

Al's post on her favorite Billy Joel song made me think of a mix tape that I have been wanting to put together for years--the best use of finger-snaps in pop music.

The best for me has to be "Rock With You" Michael Jackson. They are very clear and really punctuate the beat. George Michael is also a big fan of the finger-snap. "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go" opens as a great snapping ditty.

Others you can think of?

hmmm... good snapping songs... hmmm snappers. Hey Sisters remember when I wanted my nickname to be Snapper... that was pretty great... I wonder why that never really took off.

Speaking of wonder... It isnt an awesome snapping song but an A-list clapping song... Wayne Wonder "No Letting Go." That is a GREAT song AND a great clapping song.

I'll think about the snappers... :)

Clapping songs could be a future topic--but for now--SNAPPING SONGS!

And the name Snapper never took off because it is a) stupid b) David Hasslehoff's character on Young and the Restless and c) you cannot select your own nickname!
