no, it is not Talk Talk. John is indeed Jane; the connection is Jane Doe and John Doe

some of them (3, 14, 15 for example) need no comment.

I actually think I figured out all but one, but a few have been named already.

as to the list of Anders:

And So The Trees
Madness

A few of my own:

1) Geiger Counter
2) Eaglestorm
3) John (I consider this to be a tough one)
4) Enkidu
5) Baroque
6) Lieutenant Before
7) Unregulated Reproduction
8) Tutor Tutor
9) Fat Betty
10) Edward Murdstone

16 is the only one you didn't get right. A lot of people, including my mother, couldn't seem to figure out number 16 either and I admit it's not the best one. Lol.  Also, it's easy to come up with stuff on my own but not so easy to figure out other peoples because everyone thinks in a different way. I actually tried to make mine as easy as possible without it being too obvious most of the time. Lol.

As for your list, I've only come up with a few so far. 

1. Van Der Graaf Generator (?)
2. Hawkwind
3. Captain Beyond (?)
7. Birth Control


? = I think that's what it is but not entirely sure.

well done Clap. that leaves 3. "Tutor Tutor" is actually not so difficult. "John" and "Geiger Counter" are tough ones though

Well, I guess we can do both at the same time. All I came up with so far with your list is:

Clap your hands say yeah
Can
The Damned
Television

My head might explode before I get the others. LOL

Edit: I just added the Damned.

The game reminded me of this very ridiculous song. Kind of a similar concept:

16 is admittedly rather dumb. Bones doesn't make much sense. That is sort of part of that band's nickname these days though which is why I did it that way.

I got most of them, I'll list three.
   Big Big Train
   The Police
   King Crimson.

 I couldn't  figure out 8, 16, or 20?
( Just saw 20 on the previous post)

Correct for all of them. I'm surprised you got Camel because that's one of the tougher ones on there.

Well, you don't have to be paranoid about it. I just didn't want someone to post all of the answers because then there would be nothing left for others to guess. Lol. I've seen it happen before and I've even been guilty of it in the past myself. How about if you just post the first four you know.
