Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. My iTune of this Irving Berlin classic is covered by Leon Redbone, who sings "We'll soon be waking to find...Your heart is aching...And tears will fall as you recall... The moon in all its splendor..." What is this lady's name?

Answer: Marie

I could only find a total of seven lines of lyrics for the entire song. I love Redbone's style and was surprised to find out that this oldie was written by Irving Berlin, a famous Russian immigrant to America.
2. Of this iTune lady, Eric Clapton sings, "You've got me on my knees" and "I'm begging, darling please...Ease my worried mind." The lady's name is:

Answer: Layla

My iTune of "Layla" is off "The Millennium Collection" CD for Eric Clapton. The song is performed by Derek and the Dominos. I wasn't sure whether to use the band name or Clapton's name in the clue. Probably just as easy either way, eh? My iTune version has about three minutes of singing followed by four minutes of instrumentals.
3. Do I even need to name the band? "Ain't it good to be alive? They can't say we never tried". These lines come from one of England's greatest bands. "When will those clouds all disappear?" Which lady is this, whose name is repeated whenever it is mentioned?

Answer: Angie

Of course, it's by the Rolling Stones. "Angie" was released in August 1973.
4. These lyrics are from a duo that I grew up on: "You're breaking my heart. You're shaking my confidence daily...I'm down on my knees...begging you please to come home." What lady is that?

Answer: Cecilia

Simon and Garfunkel released this song on their "Bridge Over Troubled Water" album in 1970, the year I graduated from college. For some reason, I always think of Phil and Don Everly when I hear this song.
5. If you know Falco, you know this lady. Most of the song is in German, but what is in English includes the lines: "Quit livin' on dreams...life is not what it seems..." What is this girl named?

Answer: Jeanny

"Jeanny" was a very controversial song and was banned on some radio stations in 1985. Falco said it was inspired by, and reflected the musings of, a stalker. The simulated radio broadcast mentioned missing persons, especially a nineteen-year old girl, giving one the impression that Jeanny had met an unfortunate fate.
6. An interesting song from George Strait has the lines "I only know the way I feel when I sleep with you, ____. There's nothing left for dreams to steal". Who is this iTune lady?

Answer: Maria

The song "Maria" is from the "One Step at a Time" album. It was released in 1998.
7. If I say Everly Brothers, you know this one, right? "_____, you don't do your daddy's will...Well, there's nothin' to ya, but I love you still...Please come back where you belong". What is this lady's name?

Answer: Lucille

Don't confuse this Lucille with Kenny Rogers' Lucille. This one is simple love without all the complications of relationships after the sixties. Of course, other admirers of Lucille include BB King, Little Richard, Deep Purple, the Hollies, and Paul McCartney.
8. Donovan sings to this lady, with the lyric: "Arty tart, la de da can your heart get much sadder?" To which of my iTune ladies does Donovan Leitch sing, "That's your lot in life"?

Answer: Lalena

I did not know that Donovan was born in Scotland until I was working on this quiz. My favorite Donovan song is "Atlantis". Donovan was really in the thick of things in the good old days and his recording sessions often included members of the Beatles, Yardbirds, and Stones.
9. This is an iTune going back to 1959 and written by Ed Marshall. The singer asks the lady, "If you will, please send a little girl for me to thrill, a girl...with all the charms of you". Now, these are lyrics from a more innocent time, so the "lady" is named what?

Answer: Venus

The most famous and successful recording of "Venus" was by Frankie Avalon in 1959. The B-side of the 45 was "I'm Broke". I can't say I recall that B-side.
10. The last of my favorite iTune ladies has no lyrics. It's an instrumental by Perez Prado from 1958. However, there was also a vocal version by Perry Como in 1959. My iTune is the original instrumental named what?

Answer: Patricia

"Patricia" became the last record to rise to number one on the Billboard Jockeys chart and Top 100 chart. A week later it was the first number one on the new Billboard Hot 100. It also "appeared" in 1960's "La Dolce Vita" in a striptease scene.
