From the makers of that other evil little game...



First came the original 20Q, which WOULD NOT GET OUT OF MY HEAD. Now comes along 20Q Music and it's pretty nifty, too. But not as evil.

Sure, it got the following correct:
Elvis Costello
Seattle
Trent Reznor
Paul McCartney
Christina Aguilera
Jarvis Cocker
Bagpipes
Jimmy Buffett


It did not guess these, though:
Ben Folds
Lou Reed
The Kinks
Better Than Ezra
Neil Diamond
Weezer


Heh heh. You're not so smart after all, are you?

It must be defective. How could it not know Neil??

the original was not able to get grandma, so i don't find it curious that this one would miss neil (diamond or crazy-horse-young).

I suspect anti-Neil and anti-grandma bias on the part of the game's programmers.
