Steve Kilbey was who I was thinking of. It came close enough with the Midnight Oil guess though :D

So from what I gathered, the difference between Gainsbourg and Lennon is that one was still popular in the 80s the other got shot in the 80s.

Wow, this shit is amazing...:laughing:

I hate these parts, telling me where I answered wrong!!

You were thinking of Serge Gainsbourg.
Were you married to someone famous? You said Yes, 20Q was taught by other players that the answer is Doubtful.

hello !! Jane Birkin anyone ??

It got Jeff Buckley for me. Pretty smart machine but failed to get Walter Becker

I went with a mainstream trance artist (ATB) and it got it right in 28 questions. If I went with someone like Tom Colontonio or Kyau vs. Albert I probably would have stumped it.

It's not that the game isn't all that bright, it's that the people playing aren't too bright.

You were thinking of Kurt Cobain.
Are you used to record music? You said No, 20Q was taught by other players that the answer is Probably.

That means that the majority of people said Kurt Cobain was probably used to record music... It won in 17 though.

I also tried Stephen Malkmus and lost, apparently because Pavement is mainstream, not popular with teenagers, and has toured in the last 2 years... WTF people are dumb.

It got Iron Maiden after 28 questions.

Michael Owen after 20.

i won!
