Wow, context matters. Didn't recognize 50c at all in that suit.

I still don't and didn't write in his name, but got him. I'm assuming his real last name is also Streisand or something.

So did I - 50 Cent is filled in when Jackson is entered (for some reason).

If Tyler is accepted then Steve Tyler should be as well. Ran out of time because i started second guessing his first name.

As you should, because his first name is Steven.

And Steve is commonly short for Steven. Granted, I've never heard Steven Tyler use the shortened form Steve, but I can see why NRK is asking for it to be accepted.

What is Bach doing among this mob?

Watching over the people he influenced? Today's music is built on yesterday's music, just as today's music will influence tomorrow's. I'm glad to see a nod to that.

Serving as a token nod to pre-20th century music, as Mozart and Beethoven did in the first two quizzes in this series.

Bach fits in perfectly well. Bach, like most of the musicians in this quiz, was quite talented.

I think "entertainer" might be a better word. Suggesting that some of these...people...including a couple who were indicted for dealing drugs and murder...are "musicians"...cheapens the word considerably.

Very true. If alleged criminal activity removed you from a career in music or for that matter many of the performing arts, who would be left? Pat Boone?

I couldn't recognize her and kept thinking of female singers from the 80s, Debbie Harry, Chrissie Hynde, Stevie Nicks

I got stuck on "Chris from Coldplay" but couldn't remember his last name to save my life. I wasn't getting a perfect 5 anyway, because I have no idea who Lana Del Rey is.

So, "famous musicians". That means 17 Americans. Nice of you to include Bach among such stunning virtuosos as Ludacris and Timberlake. We Yerpeans are really touched.

I'm about to blow your mind here: you're on an American website geared towards Americans and centered on American culture. I know, crazy right?

You "Yerpeans" are a truly sensitive bunch aren't you?
