Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Can you name the song that contains these lyrics: "There's nothing to do, and there's nothing to say"?

Answer: 22

The song is "22", about a girl growing up and having to face different social pressures. The next line of the song is "'Til the man of her dreams comes along, picks her and puts her over his shoulder/ it seems so unlikely in this day and age." The song is very profound, as it sarcastically suggests the girl's life is pretty much over because she is thirty years old.

This from "It's Not Me, It's You."
2. Which song was available for download first, from "It's Not Me, It's You"?

Answer: Everyone's At It

This song can be construed as anti-drug. The album was released in the United States in February 2009. Her previous album, "Alright, Still," was produced by Mark Ronson. For her second album, she wanted to go in a different direction, so he was not involved. Greg Kurstin was the producer this time around, as well as the recorder. It is the opening song on the album.
3. Which of the following songs is about Lily's mother?

Answer: Chinese

Lily has a lot of songs about certain family members. "Chinese," which is on "It's Not Me, It's You," is about Lily's mother, Alison Owen. Her mother was a co-producer of the film "Elizabeth." "He Wasn't There," on the same album, is about her father, Keith Allen.
4. Which of the following songs is NOT about a family member?

Answer: Knock 'Em Out

"Alfie" was written about, and named after, Lily's brother, and is from "Alright, Still." It entails her frowning upon him for being lazy and not finding a job. "Chinese" and "He Wasn't There" are about her mother and father. They are both on "It's Not Me, It's You." She also wrote "Back to the Start" about one of her sisters.
5. Which of the following songs describes drama at a club?

Answer: Friday Night

The song is about Lily going from a pub to a club, and all of the drama that follows. She sings about bullies, people being too loud, and girls seeking attention in annoying ways. The album, "Alright, Still," was released in 2006.
6. Which of the following is NOT true about Lily Allen?

Answer: She was banned from London

She was given the award "Worst Dressed" by the "New Musical Express" in 2007. Lily was also on the list of "The 60 most Brilliant Brits of 2009" by "Esquire". She has written songs about her sister, brother, mother, father, and grandmother. However, Lily has not been banned from London.
7. Which song mentions spaghetti bolognese?

Answer: Everything's Just Wonderful

Possibly the best song she has ever written, "Everything's Just Wonderful" contains the food. The line is as follows: "I wanna be able to eat spaghetti Bolognese/ and not feel bad about it for days and days and days." The song is profound, because it sarcastically talks about struggling with bad credit and weight issues.
8. If you offered Lily Allen some dry, over-used saying as comfort, which song would she most likely quote back?

Answer: Take What You Take

In "Take What You Take," Lily names saying after saying. They are tired quotes (like "A picture paints a thousand words" and "All that is to fear is fear itself") that she has grown weary of hearing over and over again. This is one of her best songs because her lyrics (in this case, the chorus) are so incredibly deep and thoughtful: "Say what you say, do what you do, feel what you feel, as long as it's real."
9. Which song was available to "mix" when you brought the appropriate album?

Answer: Knock 'Em Out

The song "Knock 'Em Out" on the "Alright, Still" album was available for mixing. With the mixer, you could do almost anything to the track. The song is about people approaching others at a bar, with the latter growing annoyed with the flirts.
10. From which song do the following lyrics appear: "...everything's cool as long as I'm getting thinner"?

Answer: The Fear

The refrain in "The Fear" is excellently well-written: "I'm not a saint, but I'm not a sinner/ now everything's cool as long as I'm getting thinner." The song is about today's culture, and how society is getting colder.
