Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Max is studying the marsh, wondering who usually tends this section of the zoo, when his iPod switches to "Set Fire to the Crane", and he grins as he tries to remember which popular singer has made this song a hit. Do you know?

Answer: Adele

"Set Fire to the Rain" came out in 2011 on Adele's album titled "21". The song reached number one on the charts in six countries, and placed in the top ten of another twelve countries. Adele co-wrote the song with Fraser T. Smith, with whom she has worked on numerous songs.
2. It's a normal morning at the zoo, so gathering up his buckets of fruit and seed, Max heads out to fill feeders just as "Myna Generation" starts to play on his iPod. Which iconic group had success with that song in 1965?

Answer: The Who

The Who were honored with induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990, the UK Music Hall of Fame in 2005, and have been awarded three different Lifetime Achievement Awards. In 1999, "My Generation" was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame.
3. Max pauses near the zoo's largest lake to watch a graceful white bird land just as his iPod shuffles to an old hit, and he sings along, "Egrets, I've had a few, but then again, too few to mention...", belting out the lyrics to what Frank Sinatra song?

Answer: My Way

"My Way" was written by Paul Anka (who based it on a French song he had heard, titled "Comme d'habitude"), and Frank Sinatra recorded it, and an album by the same name, in 1968. Released in 1969, the song became one of his 'trademark' songs, along with "(Theme From) New York, New York" and "Strangers in the Night". Known as "The Chairman of the Board", Frank Sinatra was also one of the Rat Pack - which is thought to originally have had Humphrey Bogart as its core member. Perhaps, however, the best known membership of that group was Sinatra, Joey Bishop, Sammy Davis Jr., Peter Lawford and Dean Martin.
4. In the zoo's prairie section, Max sees a rather plump bird hiding in the tall grass, and his iPod shuffles to a song that is both the name of a movie and a hit tune in 1980. "That's Dolly Partridge!" he exclaims. Can you guess the title of the song he is listening to?

Answer: 9 to 5

"9 to 5" was written and recorded by Dolly Parton for the movie - which she also starred in along with Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin. The song reached number one on both the US Billboard Hot Country Singles chart and the US Billboard Hot 100 chart, and was included on the album "9 to 5 and Odd Jobs".
The movie and the song prompted a stage musical production, for which Dolly Parton wrote the music and lyrics.
5. Swinging open the gate to the crow enclosure, Max shuffles to a new tune, and pauses. "That's Dr. Rook & the Medicine Show!" he exclaims. "And this song was a hit in 1972! But, what's the title?"

Answer: Sylvia's Mother

Formed in 1967, Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show (later changed to just Dr. Hook) had their first hit with "Sylvia's Mother". It reached number five on the US Billboard Hot 100 list, and number two in the UK and Canada.
Shel Silverstein, famed for his writing and cartooning ("Where the Sidewalk Ends"), wrote most of the Dr. Hook songs, including "Sylvia's Mother" and 1973's "The Cover of the Rolling Stone".
6. Max scoops up a bucketful of brine shrimp and heads toward the wading bird pool, and his steps slow as his iPod changes to a song from "Madame Butterfly". "That's Placido Flamingo!" Max cries. What kind of singer is Max listening to?

Answer: opera

Placido Domingo is a Spanish opera singer, one of the famed Three Tenors (along with Jose Carreras and Luciano Pavarotti). He was born into a family who ran a music-theatrical company (zarzuela), and had his professional debut in 1957. In addition to singing he has also conducted - and became the general director of the Los Angeles Opera in 2003.
7. Max is cleaning out the scavengers' cages when his iPod shuffles to a song that was a hit in 1982. "Oh, I remember them! It's Boy George - and the Vulture Club!" Max says, singing along to which song?

Answer: Do You Really Want to Hurt Me?

"Do You Really Want to Hurt Me?" was a single from the album "Kissing to be Clever". It was the third single released by Culture Club, and their first real hit. Popular during the early days of MTV, the band was considered part of the 'Second British Invasion'. The video for "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me?" featured Boy George in a courtroom setting.
8. The zoo is busy, especially around the lakes, and Max turns up the volume when his iPod shuffles to an Elton Swan number one hit. "Oh, that's Kiki Dee too!" Max says, enjoying the song - but which song is playing?

Answer: Don't Go Breaking My Heart

"Don't Go Breaking My Heart" reached number one not only in the US, but also in other countries. It was the first number one single in the UK for Elton John - and Kiki Dee as well. Elton John performed the song with Miss Piggy in 1978, and in 1987 he did it again with Minnie Mouse.
9. It is getting late, and the soft cooing bird calls are making Max yawn. He sets his iPod to random, and the song "You Give Dove a Bad Name" starts to play. "I know that group," Max says, "They did "I'll Be There For You" too!" What group is he listening to?

Answer: Bon Jovi

"You Give Love a Bad Name" reached number one in the US in 1986, and "I'll Be There For You" did the same in 1989. Bon Jovi also had number one hits with 1986's "Livin' on a Prayer" and 1988's "Bad Medicine". The main members of the band, which was formed in 1983, remained relatively stable, with only the departure and replacement of the bass player occurring in 1994.
10. Max is nearly done feeding and cleaning the avian section of the zoo when his iPod changes over to "I Love Auk'n'Roll", and it puts a bounce back in his step! But, who made that song so popular in 1981?

Answer: Joan Jett & The Blackhearts

First written and recorded in 1975 by the British group Arrows, Joan Jett & the Blackhearts' "I Love Rock'n'Roll" was a number one US Billboard Hot 100 single for seven weeks. The music video for the song was done in black and white. In 1993 the group created another music video featuring the song for the film "Wayne's World II".
