Music Quiz: Complete Sentence Bands
Congratulations to Geoff, who dominated last week’s piano quiz with a 20/28, clearly ahead of the rest of the field.
One song people struggled with was Ariana Grande’s ‘Into You’ – here’s a version on Youtube, where someone replaced the instrumentation with metal, for people who don’t enjoy her usual R&B/pop:
This week’s quiz requires you to name bands whose names are complete sentences. I found it interesting – it threw up a bunch of semi-obscure groups.

I scored 12/14 – can you beat me?
A couple of well-considered guesses at the end got me to 14/14 this week with 3:19 remaining. As for the metal version (or any version) of Ariana Grande, um…no thanks. Instead, I recommend spending 3 minutes with this mash-up of Zeppelin’s “Whole Lotta Love” and Maiden’s “The Trooper” because…well, why not? 😀

I love Dread Zeppelin. Have their first three albums and they’re all enjoyable. I believe even Robert Plant was a fan.

Looks like you’ve got a 2 point lead at the moment, but it’s not all over until Tony hits it.

Nope. I tied you. Screwed up on a couple complete guesses but I knew most of them.

8/14 for me too. I neither heard of most of those bands nor songs.

The only one I’d legit not heard of was Bring Me The Horizon. I remember another quiz a few months back, most of us didn’t know Imagine Dragons, so I checked them out – not a fan.

Alas, no dominant performance this week!
11/14 – 9 were effortless and then I went 2 for 5 on the pure guesses

I could only get %64. The newer stuff I just had no clue. Worst part, I have probably heard all that stuff before. I know more millennials than I care to admit.

The music scene is fragmented these days, so it’s a question of knowing the right millennials. OK Go are noteworthy for their music videos, which are worth watching, and IMO completely overshadow their songs.
