Since 1962, Billboard has released a list of the 100 biggest hits in each year. For the purposes of this quiz, an act that gets to #1 on one of these lists gets 100 points; getting to #2 earns 99 points; all the way down to 1 point for #100. You need to name the 100 acts with the most points over the years - and you have 10 minutes in which to get as many as you can.
I got 41 out of 100 (not bad, since the average score is only 26). How did you do?

Spoiler
The most obscure one I got was Richard Marx (3%). I was surprised he was on the list, but even the guesses count .
The most obvious one I missed was T.I. (44%). However, I'm guessing a lot of those were just people who fluked it by guessing other acts whose names began with 'Ti' . Excluding him, the next most obvious one I missed was Mariah Carey (40%)... yeah, I missed the one who was #1 on the list .
