Sur (tango)
Sur is a tango with music by Aníbal Troilo and lyrics by Homero Manzi. It was first recorded by Troilo's orchestra with vocals by Edmundo Rivero on 23 February 1948. The first live performance, by the same artists, was at the Tibidabo night club in Buenos Aires.
Lyrics
The song is an elegy for a lost love, framed in the landmarks of the South side of Buenos Aires, lamenting both the end of a love story and the changes in the barrio. The male narrator addresses the girl in the second person; it is mentioned that the girl was 20 at the time.
Among the landmarks mentioned are: the corner of San Juan and Boedo at the center of the Boedo neighborhood, Pompeya (located directly to the South of Boedo), the railway crossing and the swampland at the (southern) edge of Pompeya, and the enigmatic "blacksmith's corner, mud and pampa", which could refer to the corner of Centenera and Tabaré, already named in Manzi's earlier "Manoblanca" or to a blacksmith shop in the corner of Inclán and Loria, in Parque Patricios neighbourhood.

Snapper (band)
Snapper was the New Zealand performance indie/alternative band of the late Peter Gutteridge, previously in The Clean, The Chills and The Great Unwashed.
The band evolved from the line-up of another Gutteridge-led band, the Dunedin-based Phromes. A show supporting the Delawares featuring Christine Voice drew her melodic organ and haunting vocals to the fold and with Alan Haig on drums and Dominic Stones (who went on to the 3Ds) on guitar, the line-up was complete.
Snapper's first full-length album, Shotgun Blossom, was released in 1992 with the original line-up. The seven inch single "Vadar" b/w "Gentle Hour", was released in 1993 as the band began to fragment somewhat. The full-length album, A.D.M., was released in 1996 and is predominantly Gutteridge singing and playing all instruments with Mike Dooley on drums. Voice plus Demarnia Lloyd from Cloudboy, and Celia Pavlova from King Loser, featured as guest vocalists.
Although never completely defunct; Snapper's activity since the late 1990s has been sporadic at best. In 2000 Gutteridge brought a version of his line-up together; Voice, Dooley with additional members Maxine Funke and Thomas Bell, to perform a show as part of Dunedin City's Festival of the Arts.
