Last week’s Bowie quiz threw up a couple of different winners than usual – congratulations to Tangerine Trees (https://allyouneedisthebeatles.wordpress.com/) and Chris (https://moviesandsongs365.wordpress.com/) who both scored 100%.
This week’s quiz requires you to match artists from their first name to their mugshot.
You can find it at https://www.sporcle.com/games/Noldeh/you-can-call-me-lady-gaga/
I scored 23/24. Can you beat me and score 100%? Let me know!

21/24… sat there forever and Richard didn’t compute for Ringo lol… finally got him .
You know, Richard don’t come easy for me either.
He is Ringo…period…not Richard or Ritchie… I’m a huge Beatles fan and I should be kicked though.
Love those quizes…they are challenging. I can only do the ones about older artists though.
I like quizzes like this one that encompass a range of eras. I generally find, even though I cover newer music as well, anything involving classic rock tends to get more hits/comments/likes etc.
You are right about that. When I’ve tried to slip a few unknowns…most of the time I get nothing.
I’m curious…you know a lot of music…have you ever heard of “The Nashville Ramblers”? They were from San Diego and had a brilliant power pop song called The Trains…in the 80s.
24/24. Almost blew it with Alecia but thought about it for a minute. Fortunately I (for whatever reason) know the real first names of a lot of celebs.
Impressed you know all the young starlets.
I know! I don’t even know half of their music but I know their names. I’m a trivia guy and I have a thing for names. I find them interesting, especially the choices people make when they change them. There’s a guy who was in Steppenwolf named Dennis Edmonton who changed his name to Mars Bonfire! But his original name was Dennis McCrohan. WTF?
24/24 using the process of elimination and one educated guess. 3:09 left on the clock.
I think you and Jim are the 100% so far, but he didn’t give a time.
Kamer Man, look at your score, Jim’s a lot like you.
You both scored 100% before the day was through.
22
Good score!
Nice to finally (co-)win the quiz as the competition I’m up against are tough to beat! 18/24 this week
Maybe you have more of a visual mind. I know my scores always plummet when it’s anything involving pictures, while my wife’s an architect and really good at visual stuff.
Well spotted. I think I’m at a disadvantage before we even start the quiz(I only got into music seriously in my 30s). But fun to play along and learn.
Perfect up to 19 or 20 then guessed consistently wrong.
But still a solid score!
18/24 for me
Good effort!
Thank you for the kind mention, twas nice to succeed!! 18/24 this time, not quite as good…
But still a solid pass.
Jeune femme my downfall once again. 22/24.
Australian Psychologist caught with young women… oh wait, you’re talking about the quiz.
19 out of 24.
Good effort!
21/24 – I missed Pink, Cher and Miley Cyrus. I guess I need to study up on female pop stars
I’m not really a fan of any of those ladies to be fair.
Full marks, 2:32 remaining. Admittedly I deferred a few answers until I went all the way through but some of it was still difficult! Cool one.
Perfect score!
22 – 18 I was confident, 4/6 ain’t bad on the guesses!
Sounds like my experience, except I was a wee bit luckier.
Checking in way late – last few weeks have been a bear, but now on holiday vacation. 20/24. now on to next one!
Second on the Dylan one is ripe for the picking.
Right but I don’t know his albums enough to more than guess! Here goes!
