Answer: Maggie May

This song was co-written by Rod Stewart and Martin Quittendon in 1971, for the "Every Picture Tells a Story" album and released as the "B" side song for "Reason To Believe". It was played by chance, by a DJ over the air and soon became the more popular of the two songs, quickly taking Rod Stewart to stardom.

This song was written and originally recorded by Tim Hardin in 1965. Bobby Darin also recorded it in 1967. Rod Stewart recorded and released it in 1971 as the "A" side to "Maggie May". He re-released it in 1993, live on his album "Unplugged and Seated", with Ron Wood of the Rolling Stones. Ron Wood and Rod Stewart were both members of Small Faces in 1975.

The album reunited the two musicians after almost 20 years.

Answer: You're In My Heart

Rod was standing outside the Hyatt Regency Hotel, in Toronto, Canada at 10:00 a.m., when the lyrics for this song popped into his head. There was no tape recorder available, so Rod sang while his producer wrote the lyrics on a cigarette package! He attracted quite a crowd!

"Forever Young" was written by Rod Stewart, Jim Cregan and Kevin Savigan for the "Out of Order" album, which was released in 1988.

6. Do you know which song these lyrics belong to? "I know your window and I know it's late. I know your stairs and your doorway. I walk down the street and past your gate"...

8. This song was originally recorded and released in 1989 by Van Morrison. "You fill my heart with gladness, Take away all my sadness, Ease my troubles, that's what you do." Which one is it?

Answer: Have I Told You Lately?

Rod Stewart recorded and released this song in 1993, as a single off of his "Unplugged and Seated" album. Rod dedicated the song to his wife Rachel Hunter, whom he is now divorced from. It's still a beautiful song, anyway!

9. This song reached the top ten in the singles charts in 1991. "Across the street, the river runs, Down in the gutter, life is slipping away." Can you name this one?

Answer: Rhythm of My Heart

If you listen carefully, you can hear the bagpipes in this song, which is a tribute to Rod's father and his Scottish heritage.

10. This song is from Rod's seventeenth studio album, released in 1995. "And on the bus, there's a friend of mine, We go way back to the scene of the crime."

Answer: Windy Town

The release of "A Spanner in the Works", marked the end of a four year gap between this and Rod's last studio album, "Vagabond Heart". The album also features such songs as "Leave Virginia Alone", "This" and "You're the Star". I have to say that this album is probably my favorite collection of Rod's on one album.
