Lesser Known Pop Songs Quiz | Music by Year

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Name this song: "Dripped through the hallway cause we started in the shower. We didn't finish till we hit the kitchen counter."

Answer: 100 Ways

"100 Ways" is by J.C. Chasez and is off of his 2005 solo album "Schizophrenic". It was never released as a single because...well I don't think it could be played on radio due to content. The entire song is about sex. Kind of shocking seeing as J.C. was once a member of the boyband Nsync; the band's fans were mostly preteen girls.
To distance himself from his boyband years J.C. has recently gone back to using his given name, Joshua Chasez.
All of the other choices are also by J.C. and off of the same album.

2. Name this song: "You say that I'm crazy and I kind of understand. How I wish for this nightmare to end"

Answer: I'll Never Stop

"I'll Never Stop" is by Nsync and is featured on their "Greatest Hits" album that was released in 2006. The song was never released as a single, it was just a bonus track. I honestly think the album would have been better off without the song. Nsync was well known as a boyband with original songs such as "Pop" which features Justin Timberlake beatboxing most of the beat, and "The Game Is Over" which features a beat that isn't made with instruments but with samples of video games such as "Ms. Pacman". "I'll Never Stop" comes off as a very generic, cheesy love song that is very far off from Nsync's original style. The other choices are also all Nsync songs.

3. Name this song: "If you want it to be wild, Gotta know just who to dial baby, That's me. If you really like it hot, Get someone who hits the spot."

Answer: If You Want It To Be Good Girl (Get Yourself A Bad Boy)

"If You Want It To Be Good Girl (Get Yourself A Bad Boy)" is by The Backstreet Boys and is off of their 1998 self-titled debut album.
The song was only ever released as a single in the UK and it didn't go far on the charts.
I am not normally a fan of The Backstreet Boys but I came across this song a little while back when a friend of mine used it in a YouTube video for famed bounty hunter Leland Chapman. Of all of the songs I have heard by them, this is by far the most original.

4. Name this song: "NYC to Cali, Oh we're cuttin' trips in the valley. Everywhere we go, you know we gonna roll with, Ah, top down crusin' nice and slow. We got *Nsync crankin' on the radio, You know I'll be your girlfriend, yo."

Answer: Hot

"Hot" is by the girlband No Secrets. It is off of their self-titled debut and only album.
This song didn't even break into the top 100 on the charts back in 2003.
The mention of Nsync in this song is kind of funny, seeing as former Nsync member J.C. Chasez produced this song.

5. Name this song: "My grades are down from A's to D's, I'm way behind in history. I've lost myself in fantasies, Of you and me together."

Answer: Upside Down

This song is by the band A*Teens and is off of their 2001 album "Teen Spirit". While the band is very big in Europe they haven't had a lot of success in the States. They have yet to have a song land in the top 100 on the charts in the US.
An interesting fact for you: A*Teens first album was made up entirely of remakes of Abba songs!

6. Name this song: "Last night I went to a party hoping I'd see you there, And sure enough you were hanging on some other girl playin' with her hair. And I overheard you tellin' her the very same thing you said to me the night before. Hook, line, and sinker you were walking with her out the door."

Answer: Another Dumb Blonde

This song is by the Hawaiian singer Hoku and is off of the soundtrack to the movie "Snow Day". While the movie is a waste of time, the song is actually very funny and very true...and that is coming from a blond. lol
Interesting Fact: Hoku is the daughter of the late Don Ho. Hoku doesn't use her last name because she doesn't want to ride on her father's fame. Nicole Richie, Paris Hilton...take notes!

7. Name this song: "Today I'm gonna ride away, To feel the sun throughout my hair. Finally free to be who I want to be Who that is I don't really care..."

Answer: Sweet Sixteen

This song is by Hilary Duff is off her 2003 album "Metamorphosis". This song was never released as a single but I still think its a pretty good song for teen girls. It talks about growing up and embracing your life and your family. Unlike a lot of other teen queens out there Hilary doesn't promote sex, drinking, and partying all night.

8. Name this song: "Whatchu gonna do when the crowd goes ayo? Why you'll standing on the wall? Music`s startin everywhere, So why don't you just move along..."

Answer: Do Somethin'

This song is by Britney Spears and is off of her 2005 greatest hits album. To be honest, the song is actually a bunch of nonsense words put to a beat and no, I didn't spell the lyrics wrong, thats how they are spelled on her website and in her song book.
This song didn't go anywhere on the charts. It was released to try to curve the backlash of Britney fans turning against her after her marriage to Kevin Federline. While it has a good beat, Britney isn't even singing on the track. She is talking in a voice that makes it sound like she had a cold when she recorded it.

9. Name this song: "I picked up the phone and heard her voice, Is she taking my time? She sounded so cute, so innocent, You always were a sucker for the playful kind."

Answer: Anywhere But Here

This song is by the band Eden's Crush and is off of their self-titled and only album that was released back in 2000.
The song was a minor success back in 2000.
Eden's Crush was a band put together on the reality show "Making The Band". The band has since broken up and lead singer Nicole has since moved on to head the mega hit girlband The Pussycat Dolls.

10. Name this song: "I feel the energy all around, And my body can't stop movin' to the sound. But... I can tell that you're watching me, And your probably gonna write what you didn't see."

Answer: Rumours

This song is by Lindsey Lohan and is off of her 2005 album "Speak". This song and the entire album were a minor hit. Her second album didn't do as well and her record label dropped her as an artist.
This song was released before Lindsey started getting herself into trouble and if you listen to it, it is almost like a cry for help, it's like a warning sign of troubles to come. In the song Lindsey is pleading with the press to leave her alone, to stop following her, to stop making up rumors about her life.
Lindsey has since cleaned up her act.
