Keep sharing your results! So far I think there's no 20/20.

19/20 for me, but I admit 1 or 2 were flat out guesses!!

16/20. I thought I'd do better but there are clearly bigger nerds than me. Thanks for putting this together. That was neat!

Maybe you could add a poll on this topic there people can input their scores and we can see metrics.

13/20, I also had trouble with some of the European brands, and sadly I didn't know the musical excerpts. Cool quiz though!
