Cool idea! The string matching seems a bit brittle on the names I tried -- "Beatles" turns up no results, but "The Beatles" works. Same goes for "Rolling Stones"/"The Rolling Stones".

That's true, I'll look into having it try more variances on the entered name when it searches Wikipedia

This is interesting. Would be cool to see it spit out example YouTube urls. I might give that a go someday.
