12. Which poker related title is shared by both a 1989 George Strait Number One hit and a 1951 Kirk Douglas film?

Answer: Ace in the Hole

"Ace in the Hole" is the title shared by both. The phrase refers to the best possible card a player can have that is not exposed in either a community card game like Texas Hold'em or a stud game like Seven Card Stud. The unexposed cards a player holds in such games is the hole. Although the Douglas movie has a poker related title, the movie had nothing to do with poker. George's song uses the phrase as a metaphor for having something in reserve for a rainy day because "life is a gamble, a game we all play". "The Sting" is a 1979 Paul Newman and Robert Redford poker movie. "A Big Hand for the Little Lady" is a 1966 Henry Fonda and Joanne Woodward poker movie. "Queen of Hearts" is a Juice Newton crossover hit from 1981 that uses the Queen of Hearts as a metaphor for love. George released "Ace in the Hole" as a single from his album "Beyond the Neon Moon". It was written by Dennis Adkins. It reached Number One on the US Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart on Nov. 4, 1989 and did the same thing on the Canadian RPM Country Tracks chart one week later. It was preceded on both charts by Alabama's "High Cotton". It was succeeded on the US chart by Kathy Mattea's "Burnin' Old Memories" and on the Canadian chart by Restless Heart's "Say What's in Your Heart". It was George's 18th Number One overall and 11th in a row.

25. Which singer asked the title question "How Do You Like Me Now?!" of an unrequited love from high school?

From Quiz Down on Love - Country Style

Answer: Toby Keith

Toby Keith released "How Do You Like Me Now?" as the title single to his album of the same name. It was written by Keith and Chuck Cannon. It was the first hit for Keith after leaving his record label, Mercury Nashville, over creative differences. They did not believe the song would be a hit. The title seemed to be an anthem for Toby and the struggles he had to go through to get it made the way he wanted it made. The song stayed at Number One on the US Billboard Hot Country Songs chart for four weeks from March 18 through April 15 and was named the US Billboard Hot Country Singles and Tracks single of the year for 2000. It was also Number One on the Canadian RPM Country Tracks chart for two weeks. It reached 31st on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart, his best crossover success to that point. It appears Keith knew what he was talking about in sticking with the song. The chorus says it all: "How do you like me now? How do you like me now, Now that I'm on my way? Do you still think I'm crazy Standin' here today? I couldn't make you love me But I always dreamed about living in your radio How do you like me now?"
