Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Which famous Queen song is notably remembered from the movie "Wayne's World"?

Answer: Bohemian Rhapsody

Queen is known for their operatic/rock singing style. This song portrays their best singing abilities perfectly.

2. Which Chuck Berry song was covered by both The Beatles and The Beach Boys?

Answer: Rock And Roll Music

"The Night Before" and "Please Please Me" are both Beatles songs written purely by them. "I Get Around" is a Beach Boys song, so that only left "Rock and Roll Music".

3. "Wouldn't It Be Nice" is a popular song by which classic rock group or singer?

Answer: The Beach Boys

"Wouldn't It Be Nice" is a prime example of The Beach Boys when they had changed their sound from being surf music. This song is on their hit album "Pet Sounds". "Pet Sounds" happened to have its 40th anniversary in 2006.

4. Eric Clapton was great friends with the late George Harrison, and Clapton ended up falling in love with Harrison's wife and marrying her. What was her name?

Answer: Pattie Boyd

Pattie Boyd Harrison was George Harrison's first wife until Eric Clapton entered the picture. The marriage between Boyd and Clapton did not last either. The other three names, Olivia is George's second wife, Maureen was Ringo Starr's first wife and Cynthia was John Lennon's first wife.

5. There are two famous singers/bands who wrote a song called "Sunday Bloody Sunday". John Lennon and Yoko Ono are one of them, who is the other?

Answer: U2

On January 30, 1972, soldiers from the British Army's 1st Parachute Regiment opened fire on unarmed and peaceful civilian demonstrators in the Bogside, Derry, Ireland, near the Rossville flats, killing 13 and wounding a number of others. U2, being from Ireland, felt the need to write this wonderful, yet sad, song.

6. Which Elton John song contains this line: "Back to the howling old owl in the woods hunting the horny back toad oh I've finally decided my future lies"?

Answer: Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

This song is so powerful and its notes make everyone want to sing along! So everyone sing along "So goodbye yellow brick road...Oh I've finally decided my future lies, beyond the yellow brick road...".

7. Which popular group could still rock out to their hit "Start Me Up"?

Answer: The Rolling Stones

The Rolling Stones, although not all of the original members remain, are still rocking out to their classic hits. Many people think that most of the members should be dead, but look at it this way they look pretty good for being around 80 something.

8. What is the proper title of the The Who song most commonly referred to as "Teenage Wasteland"?

Answer: Baba O'Riley

This song's title is nowhere in the song, so most people just call it the most commonly used phrase sung in the song, "Teenage Wasteland".

9. Which Beach Boys album contains these songs: "I Get Around", "Kokomo" and "Rock And Roll Music"? Hint: the album is somewhat like a greatest hits album.

Answer: Sounds Of Summer: Very Best Of

In the song "Kokomo", Kokomo is a little place that everybody goes to. It is like an imaginary paradise.

10. Which of the following songs is NOT from The Beatles album Revolver?

Answer: In My Life

Although some people think "Yellow Submarine" first appeared on the Yellow Submarine movie soundtrack, it did not. "In My Life" was on the album recorded the previous year in 1965, Rubber Soul.
