    That’s what I got too, for the same reason. I knew who did The Four Seasons though, so that’s something…?

    36/48 - huge numbers of wild guesses on my part. Meanwhile: Led Zep had two questions. One too many for a quiz like this, but still.

    Dammit 36/48. I'm a horrible test taker.mostly on the history questions. I got a lot of the classical questions wrong (except for Beethoven) got f*****g Piano Nan WRONG because I thought it was a trick question and answered "Elton John" against my better instincts. Got the Spanish dance question wrong and the origins of reggae and Donald Glover. Blech. And didn't know the names of led Zeppelin. I wish they would do one with all lyrics then I'd get them mostly right I think. Don't mind me I'm like Hermione obsessively analyzing my results haha except I'm not a star student

    Billy Joel's 2nd album "Piano Man" and song of the same name made him famous, but he and Elton John released an album called Piano Men and toured together under that name. For some reason the LZ question took me a moment. I could have named all 4 members, but somehow the list of first names threw me and I had to cross the other choices off the list before it clicked.

    Way too narrow. Led Zep and Queen accounting for too many questions.
