Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Which group recorded a song which told the doctor that the singer had "a pain where there once was a heart"?

Answer: Rolling Stones

The song is "Dear Doctor", sung by Mick in a twangy accent. Released in the US on the "Beggars Banquet" album in 1968.

2. Which Doctor wanted to be on the cover of the Rolling Stone?

Answer: Dr. Hook

Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show recorded "Cover of the Rolling Stone" in 1979.

3. Doctor Zhivago was an epic movie with a very memorable score. The best-known piece from the score is this character's theme

Answer: Lara

The movie was released in 1965. Yuri was Dr. Zhivago's first name, Lara was his affaire d'amour, Pasha was her husband and Tonya was the doctor's wife. Confused? Almost as confusing as the history of the Russian revolution . . .

4. In which song did the doctor come in "stinking of gin"?

Answer: Rocky Raccoon

Not only was the doctor stinking of gin, he proceeded to lie on the table.

5. Which artist asked the doctor to give him the news because he had "a bad case of loving you"?

Answer: Robert Palmer

"Bad Case of Loving You" was released in the US in 1979 on the "Secrets" album. Palmer died at age 54 of a heart attack.

6. What kind of doctor gave advice for a relationship gone sour with the words "oo ee, oo ah ah, ting tang walla walla bing bang"?

Answer: Witch Doctor

Most of us remember the Alvin and the Chipmunks version of the Witch Doctor song, but it was originally released in 1958 by David Seville (real name - Ross Bagdasarian).

7. Which doctor gave the Beatles a sip from his "special cup"?

Answer: Robert

The song, "Doctor Robert", was recorded in 1966 and appears on the "Revolver" album.

The Doctor Robert character has been associated with numerous supposed suppliers of illicit substances, including John Lennon himself.

8. Who recorded the album (and song) "Bush Doctor" in 1978?

Answer: Peter Tosh

Peter Tosh, Bob Marley and Bunny Wailer were the original members of the Wailers. Peter originally taught Marley how to play guitar. He had a falling out with the rest of the group (apparently was very hot-headed). He was murdered in 1987.

9. Jackson Browne asked for help with which body part in the 1972 song, "Doctor, My _____"?

Answer: Eyes

This appeared on his eponymous 1972 album.

Answer: Alanis Morissette
