Got 100% no problem. However, I question putting UB40 on this quiz, since 4 and 0 aren't letters. Thus, UB40 is a two-letter musical act. I recommend either making a note of that in the footnotes, changing the quiz's title to "Four-Character Musical Artists", or removing UB40 from the quiz completely.

Maybe we should just accept the longstanding colloquial definition of fruits and vegetables and tell botanists to stop telling us what is what.

George Michael's band was actually Wham! - with an exclamation mark! Which is still a 4-letter band though :)

I was going to say something about P!nk's technicality, and then I came across UB40. Maybe mention some answers contain four characters, not necessarily four letters.
