Eurythmics?? Never would've thought they'd be higher than Coldplay, Oasis, Spice Girls, One Direction, Led Zeppelin etc

There's an album given as a hint in that quiz and the Eurythmics one - Sweet Dreams - is a much more obvious giveaway than some of the other albums for more famous bands. Probably not a great idea to include the category in this quiz given that the statistics were so warped.

They're also a duo, which according to the description are "not considered bands" for this quiz.
