Talk:Rick Grimes vs Walter White/@comment-15589301-20140330094841/@comment-24323212-20140331182127

This is just going to turn into another pointless thread about who is more famous filled with anecdotal evidence, but if it matters to anyone,


 * Wikipedia traffic of the last 90 days reports that "The Blues Brothers" had been visited 108,704 times and "LMFAO" had been visited 176,852 times.


 * Google Trends reports that LMFAO (subtitle: record producer) had been searched 3.67 times more than The Blues Brothers (subtitle: band) since January 1, 2004.


 * The query "The Blues Brothers" returns 1,610,000 results from Google and "LMFAO" returns 12,000,000 results.


 * Four songs from The Blues Brothers have entered the Hot 100. None have reached the top ten (they don't have their own discography page on Wikipedia).  LMFAO has had 6 songs in the Hot 100 (8 if you count songs as featured artist), 2 of which went number one for several weeks and as I said before are still the 3rd and 11th highest charting songs of the 2010's so far.

There really should be a website where users take quizzes of names, faces, and people they do or don't recognize in order for us all to better understand who's name is a "household name" on a national or international level and who is merely local to our families. Because those last four statistics aren't meant to measure fame, they only correlate strongly with fame.

I for one have never heard of The Blues Brothers before browsing the upcoming suggestions page. Even the name just didn't ring a bell. But to others, they might have not heard of LMFAO. It is really just a barrier between our microcultures that is very hard to see across.
