The Mainstream-O-Meter ... will show you how mainstream (uncool) you are. I am 48.7% mainstream, sadly. If it weren't for those Beatles, and Led Zeppelin, grr.
Where are the rest of ya at? (Last.fm profile with listening history required to play)
I'm 10.31% mainstream. I'm kinda more interested in who's the most mainstream, though I wonder whether that kind of listener, and that kind of listening, is underrepresented in last.fm's userbase.
I'm at 15% or so...thank heavens. No good Dylan and Bowie! I could never complain about the only band that matters though, so I'll leave my complaining at that!
I score 13.7%. It would have been lower if the tape-Beatles didn't induce division by 0.
Why is Arling & Cameron less than 1% mainstream? They soundtracked a Gap ad, for Pete's sake. They do remixes for Bjork. They're better known than... well... than at least five other higher-scoring artists on my list.
