Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. From which song would you find this lyric? "I stretched over to reach you."

Answer: Fireworks

This is from the album "The Good Will Out". The song, the band's first EP, was released in the UK in 1997 and reached number 34 in the UK singles chart.
2. Which song begins: "Why did you run, I'll always let you leave"?

Answer: Make It Last

From the band's third studio album, "If You've Never Been", the song only managed to reach number 35 in the UK singles chart when it was released in 2001.
3. "It would be wrong for a tale so sad" is the opening line of which song?

Answer: Near Life

This song, from the album "Out Of Nothing", features Martin Glover on the song writing credits. Glover, also known as Youth, has produced for bands including U2, Crowded House, Primal Scream and Dido. He also co-produced "Urban Hymns" by The Verve, and Guns N' Roses' "Chinese Democracy".
4. Which song contains the line: "All the lines were there for me to see"?

Answer: Wonder

Along with "Make It Last", this was one of only two songs from the album "If You've Never Been" to have been released as a single in the UK. This song had a little more commercial success, peaking at 14 in the singles chart.
5. From which song can the following lyric be found: "I tried to fight the feeling"?

Answer: Nature's Law

Released in 2006, this song became the band's most successful to that date in the UK, reaching number two in both the singles and download chart.

Controversially, it is claimed that a large count of downloads was lost and therefore not registered in the official chart. Had these been taken into account, Embrace most certainly would have had their first UK number 1 single. Instead, they were beaten to the top by Ne-Yo's "So Sick".
6. Which song opens with the line: "Honey, it's been a long time coming"?

Answer: Gravity

This was the band's first song to chart in the US, reaching number 36 in the modern rock chart in 2004.

The song was written by Chris Martin of Coldplay. While Coldplay had played the song live in 2002, it was given to Embrace to record, and featured on their album "Out Of Nothing". Coldplay did record the song in 2005, using it as a b-side on their own single "Talk".
7. From which song is the lyric: "Don't wanna let you down"?

Answer: My Weakness Is None Of Your Business

This song was the band's fifth single release in the UK, and their third consecutive top ten. The song features on the band's first studio album, "The Good Will Out".
8. "When you're lost in the dark, undermined" is a lyric from which song?

Answer: I Hope You're Happy Now

This song features on the band's third studio album, "If You've Never Been", released in the UK in 2001. The album peaked at number 9 in the UK album chart.
9. From which song is this the opening line: "You're the first in my life to make me think"?

Answer: World At Your Feet

Despite being used as the official song of the England World Cup squad in 2006, "World At Your Feet" only managed to reach number 3 in the UK singles chart.

The song was first broadcast on Chris Moyles' breakfast show on Radio 1 in April 2006. At the time the song was played, a reporter attempted to gauge the reaction of a few people in a pub in Bristol. When someone claimed the song was "too slow", Moyles claimed the song to be "perfect" before telling everyone to "shut up and enjoy it".
10. Which song has this as a lyric: "I told the Devil and the deep blue sea to hide"?

Answer: Looking As You Are

Released as a single in the UK in 2005, the song peaked at 11 in the singles chart. The song was taken from the album "Out Of Nothing", the band's fourth studio album, released in 2004, the album was seen as a "comeback" album, despite the fact that the band hadn't really been anywhere. "Out Of Nothing" reached number one in the UK album chart, the first Embrace album to do so since their debut release, "The Good Will Out" in 1998.
