	Garfunkel on the description page; "quiz is based ON the core or founding...".

	Seeing the Indigo Girls in a quiz makes me smile :)

	pastryflour:	Jan 11th, 2009 at 20:18 GMT	5 points
	Maybe ICP should be accepted for Insane Clown Posse.

	For all the "Sporcle is too US-centric!", this had a very good mix of acts. With that said, this was really damn hard. And with THAT said, Salt-n-Pepa should not be there at all. The quiz says "core or founding members", and aside from their very first single, they have ALWAYS been a trio. Spinderella (well, first one Spinderella on their debut album, and then a different Spinderella since) has been there since their debut- she's even on the damn album cover!

	Missed Gnarls Barkley

	Was hoping for some Death from Above 1979. Or Daft Punk. Good quiz still.

	danc1005:	Jan 11th, 2009 at 20:43 GMT	3 points
	Daft Punk is a glaring omission. Also, anybody else think that the clues for Kris Kross should be "Daddy Mack" and "Mack Daddy"?

	lostnone:	Jan 11th, 2009 at 21:37 GMT	4 points
	And no They Might Be Giants??? Surely the bespectacled sporcle geeks duo of choice..... or maybe it's Sparks, i am never quite sure

Comment below threshold: show it

	Great to see Walter Becker and Donald Fagen in a sporcle quiz. Bit of a guilty pleasure of mine. And I must protest about the exclusion of the pioneering Milli Vanilli! : )

	marpocky:	Jan 11th, 2009 at 21:43 GMT	6 points
	@don: Every pair you named went by (more or less) their actual names, making them pretty uninteresting entries on this quiz.

	JD_Salinger:	Jan 11th, 2009 at 21:50 GMT	0 points
	No She & Him?

	Tenacious D?

	Liberal:	Jan 11th, 2009 at 22:26 GMT	-1 points
	EPMD would of been cool.

	MissInformed:	Jan 11th, 2009 at 22:48 GMT	-1 points
	Good quiz, if there's a part 2 may I humbly suggest Orbital (Phil Hartnoll & Paul Hartnoll), Yaz[oo] (Alison Moyet & Vince Clarke), Shakespears Sister [sic] (Siobhan Fahey & Marcella Detroit), and of course, Sparks (Russell Mael & Ron Mael) as someone else up there said. I have more if you're interested...

	Emily_Howard:	Jan 12th, 2009 at 00:14 GMT	2 points
	Really missed Tenacious D and Chromeo. I sucked on that one, only got Wham... bitter about missing OutKast and Chemical Brothers. Didn't really think there. A lot of duos I've never even heard of.

	jessek:	Jan 12th, 2009 at 01:01 GMT	1 point
	Mobb Deep? Orbital?

	Tom:	Jan 12th, 2009 at 01:27 GMT	-1 points
	T Rex?

	danzam:	Jan 12th, 2009 at 02:20 GMT	1 point
	The lack of Tenacious D made me throw my Pick of Destiny at the monitor.

	Rossum:	Jan 12th, 2009 at 02:23 GMT	1 point
	Definitely hard to believe They Might Be Giants was left out. I mean, they even have their own Sporcle quiz! :-)

	bluesixstring:	Jan 12th, 2009 at 04:06 GMT	2 points
	This may have been the hardest music quiz for me. Missed all the rap combos and most of the other ones too! I agree with Rossum, missing TMBG is a crime.

	TallKool1:	Jan 12th, 2009 at 05:36 GMT	0 points
	Great quiz. Daft Punk is an obvious one, and Tears for Fears died in 1990 when they decided they were officially only a "duo"...

	ithinkiamsteven:	Jan 12th, 2009 at 05:43 GMT	4 points
	too many one hit wonders made it very difficult

	no shakespears sister either :-(

	kwelly15:	Jan 12th, 2009 at 14:08 GMT	1 point
	Can definitely see a part 2 with Tenacious D, Heart, The Judds, Captain and Tennille, The Wreckers, K.C. and JoJo...

	cronic:	Jan 12th, 2009 at 14:56 GMT	1 point
	It's NCP not ICP They didn't put Hall & Oates for the same reason they didn't put Peaches & Herb or Asford & Simpson--it isn't very challenging if the names of the members are the same as the name of the duo

	Mo:	Jan 12th, 2009 at 16:24 GMT	2 points
	Good quiz. Although ICP should be acceptable for Insane Clown Posse (NCP? Whaa?)

	Chiaprofessor:	Jan 12th, 2009 at 16:47 GMT	1 point
	Kicking myself for some that I missed. Here's a tough one, T'Pau.

	Brawlin Colin:	Jan 12th, 2009 at 17:31 GMT	3 points
	Where is Daft Punk?

	beatrix kiddo:	Jan 12th, 2009 at 18:09 GMT	0 points
	a good quiz - with plenty of new old and 80s! and a mix of genres. definitley scope for a part 2 (orbital, daft punk, nizlopi, cheeky girls!) or perhaps a pop trios (yeah yeah yeahs, destiny's child, tlc).

	pr:	Jan 12th, 2009 at 19:13 GMT	5 points
	Good quiz but these terrible acts make it extremely difficult. I am thinking of Eric B. and Rakim, Sam and Dave, Sparks, Ween, TMBG, and if Salt n Pepa count as a duo then so should RUN DMC. Good idea for a quiz but the quiz maker has some screwed up musical taste.

	smillerakalilnoz:	Jan 26th, 2009 at 15:24 GMT	-1 points
	Brooks and Dunn should be here also. The Blues Brothers??? Come on now, be real.

	Etheridge2:	Feb 8th, 2009 at 22:16 GMT	1 point
	i kept trying kriss kross oh well and the omission of THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS is shameful otherwise a great quiz

	YEAH P.M. DAWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Such a good rap group!

	Tricia:	May 15th, 2009 at 17:44 GMT	1 point
	Technically, it's not "The Indigo Girls"...it's just "Indigo Girls"

	Datazoid:	May 30th, 2009 at 16:19 GMT	0 points
	Surely it's Daniel Johns, not Daniel Jones..

	bleak07:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 00:50 GMT	-3 points
	um no hall and oates or Simon and Garfunkle?
