Weekly Music Quiz: Going Solo?
Congratulations to Jim S,Rich, Tony, and Aaron, who all bought sexy back and recorded perfect scores in last week’s trivia quiz.
In this week’s quiz, you need to tell the system if a song is from a solo act, or from its parent band.
I was a little sloppy with my 26/30 – I’m pretty sure it’s easily beatable.
Aphoristical
Graham Fyfe is fascinated by pop music, and he may be the only blogger in the world to cover Neil Diamond and Ariana Grande.
I did one worse less than you 25/30.

We made sexy great again. Tied, 26/30. Wild guesses got me nowhere this time. Although that said, how is it I can name any song by Justin Timberlake or Black Eyed Peas?

Guessed more than half and scored 21. Happy enough with that as I haven’t hear of many of the artists!

Have you ever thought of doing a blog series when you do a first impressions on a whole lot of these young ‘uns?

Not “pop” – I’d rather go to the dentist. But I do occasionally feature new(-ish) artists. The challenge is to listen often enough and hard enough to get inside unfamiliar styles (or new expressions of familiar styles). Closest I get is electronic artist such as Zombi or Boards of Canada.

I’m in a tie with our host at 26/30. Multiple guesses on this one, with about a 50% success rate. Thanks for sharing this quiz.

No problem – I think I was pretty similar, except that I just flaked out on the No Doubt one. It’s a bit hard to seperate out the band and the solo artist when you’re working quickly.

I scored 25. Happy with that, though…

I’m down at 29/30. I’m failed but not having a clue about N.E.R.D…. I don’t believe I’m missing anything there though

Takes the lead! I’m unfamiliar with N.E.R.D. too, and it’s certainly tempting to write them off based on their name.
