Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. "She's a Lady"
Answer: Tom Jones
This song was written by Paul Anka, but was released by Tom Jones in 1971. It became his highest ranked song in the United States, reaching Number Two on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, falling just behind "Me and Bobby McGee" by Janis Joplin.
2. "Lady Madonna"
Answer: The Beatles
The Beatles first released this song as a single in 1968 before placing it on their "Hey Jude" album in 1970. Paul McCartney has said that he was inspired to create the song after seeing a photo of a mother breastfeeding her child in National Geographic Magazine.
3. "Sentimental Lady"
Answer: Fleetwood Mac
Bob Welch wrote this song for Fleetwood Mac's album "Bare Trees" that came out in 1972. This romantic song is a little over four minutes and thirty seconds, so it may not have received as much radio air play as some shorter songs that were out at this time.
4. "Winter Lady"
Answer: Leonard Cohen
This song appears on Cohen's debut album "Songs of Leonard Cohen". It was released by Cohen in 1967.
5. "Lady in Red"
Answer: Chris de Burgh
In this 1986 release, de Burgh sings a love song that he has said was written about his wife, and what she was wearing on the night they met. It reached Number One on charts in areas around the world including Canada, the UK, Ireland, and Norway. It also has its haters, having been voted the third worst song of the 1980s by Rolling Stone magazine.
6. "Dude Looks Like a Lady"
Answer: Aerosmith
Aerosmith wrote this song about a man with an effeminate appearance in 1987. It was nominated (but didn't win) in two categories of the MTV music video awards that year. This song was also used quite effectively in the movie "Mrs. Doubtfire" where the male lead character dresses as a female nanny in order to be with his children each day.
7. "Green-eyed Lady"
Answer: Sugarloaf
When this song was released in 1970, the band struggled with the record industry to distribute it. This led them to write another of their famous songs "Don't Call Us, We'll Call You". Both songs were hits for the band in the 1970s.
8. "Three Times A Lady"
Answer: The Commodores
This song, released in 1978, reached the Number One spot on Billboard's Hot 100 chart where it stayed for two weeks. It also reached top of the R&B chart, soul, and country charts. Truly a song to cut across genres.
9. "Lady Stardust"
Answer: David Bowie
This song was written by David Bowie for the album "The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars" (1972). It also appeared on a picture disc single in Japan in 2017.
10. "Lady Sings the Blues"
Answer: Billie Holiday
Billie Holiday wrote this song in the 1950s with jazz pianist Herbie Nichols. She also chose it for the title of her autobiography in 1956.
