Again, it's not a big deal, just something we're discussing.

If you don't know the story of the artist and/or song you can always talk about your impression of the song or something.
I run in the same problems of having little information on an artist that I want to post in my journal(s). It takes more time and effort to learn more about an unknown band or artist, but you'll be surprised what is out there. I find information in YouTube comments and video details, in reviews etc. I even translated a page from Russian to English using the Bing Translator to get the only information I could on the subject. But you are right, sometimes you end up doing more research than you want.
