I couldn't resist this one... it's so up my alley! Nabbed from halfdutch although she had more modern ones that I couldn't guess for peanuts, being an old dinosaur-fart type myself! I haven't got anything much really new, cos I'm like that, but see how you get on! Answers forthcoming when guessing is complete!

Ha, at least I recognised one band and that was No.13: Erasure, right? :)

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

Dead right, love! Prize number one! *hands over the biggest box of chocolate for first guess and it being correct!*

[marius2045.livejournal.com]

*munches happily on chocolate*

Yay, I won! ^_^

[bachlava.livejournal.com]

7 is Tracy Chapman, and 17 is Tori Amos. I'm not sure about the rest, though...

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

Woo! Good guesses and both right! Prize number two goes to the lady in the bushes!

Some of these are blatant guesses, but then B is asleep at the mo!

2:?
3: Jackson Browne!
4: Elton John?
5:?
6: ELO?
7: Tracy Chapman?
8: Tanita Tikaram (had to check how to spell this!)
9: Hot Chocolate?
10:?
11: New Order?
12:?
13: Erasure (did you know he's GAY!!??)
14: Eurythmics
15: Roxy Music?
16: TREX (when Mickey Finn was HOT)

18: Clash?
19: Style Council? (Though I know Paul Weller when I see him!)
20: ?

When Bob wakes up, I'll ask him to have a look!

*loves you and your kerazzie quiz*

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

Woo! You are totally awesome! Dead on with most, but I have to say, #4 isn't Elton John and #11 is not New Order! Otherwise, the enormous chocolate fish goes to you for having most correct! *hands it over*

[kitty-trio.livejournal.com]

Ok, first pass (and yes I should be writing, not trying to stretch my memory cells)

2. Eagles; 6. ELO; 10 (looks like a young Bruce Springteen on the left?) 12. Pink Floyd; 14. Annie Lennox/Eurythmics; 20. REO Speedwagon

(I know I know more, but grr, can't pluck the bands or artists from my head)

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

And my darling, yours are all spot on too! I really thought Pink Floyd was going to be a hard one, but you did it (I'm not sure I would have!) and you deserve many many chocolate kisses! *smooches you with 'em*

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

Oh, except no, that's not Bruce Springsteen - wrong nationality!

[kitty-trio.livejournal.com]

Man!!! I knew that was Jackson Browne...but skipped over adding him to my list, ah well. The Clash! I knew I shoulda known. SAme for #'s 4 & 5... I'm sure I know... just can't dig them out of the blurry recesses of my mind.

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

Ah, that's the way it goes, eh? I do hope you'll keep working on 4, as I'm sure you DO know him! If only green_grrl were here, she'd get him!!!

[msb66.livejournal.com]

5 is 10CC who are from the area I live in now and who recorded in Strawberry Studios which are in Stockport (ie where I reside).

11 WILD guess as I don't really know what they looked like but - Crowded House?

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

WOO! You got it, 10cc! Oh wow, so close to you! I LOVE 10cc, so clever with their lyrics and man, great music!

Sorry, your wild guess didn't quite make it for #11 though! Where are all the Canadians when you need them?

[azdiva.livejournal.com]

Is 4: Warron Zevon
11: Little River band????

How ya been hon?

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

Hey! Good to see you, sweetie! And yes, it is Mr Zevon! Woo, go you!

Unfortunately your other guess is wrong but you still deserve chocolate fish for Warren *hands them over*

[lostjane.livejournal.com]

No. 11--Blue Rodeo??

*crosses fingers*

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

*uncrosses your fingers* SPOT ON, babe! *twirls you around and spreads chocolate everywhere* Last guess and a good one! My favouritist Canadian band EVER!

[lostjane.livejournal.com]

WOOP!

I SO RULE!

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

You so do!!!
