a pretty neat site, it maps a path between any two artists, showing the degrees of separation.

Here's an interesting one:

I think the game with this should be to try to rack up the highest degrees of seperation

Karl Burns has apparently been in everything. If I put The Fall in he's the connection no matter what other band I put in

I put fifteen steps between the Cure and One direction. It was a bit lame towards the end what they considered connected though
