Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. "Wild Thing"
Answer: Tone Loc
American rapper Anthony Terrell Smith, better known by his stage name Tone Loc, was born on 3rd March 1966 in Los Angeles, California. He is best known for the first and second singles he released from his 1989 debut studio album "Lōc-ed After Dark", "Wild Thing", and "Funky Cold Medina" respectively. "Wild Thing" plays as Natalie (played by Cameron Diaz), who is pretending to be an innocent tourist, rides the mechanical bull in the Mongolian bar where U.S. Marshal Ray Carter (played by Robert Patrick) is being held captive.
2. "Sleep Now in the Fire"
Answer: Rage Against the Machine
Consisting of Zack de la Rocha (vocals), Tom Morello (guitar), Tim Commerford (bass), and Brad Wilk (drums), Rage Against the Machine is an American rock band that were originally active between 1991 and 2000, and reformed between 2007 and 2011. They are probably best known for their 1992 debut single "Killing in the Name", which became the UK Christmas number one in 2009 following a social networking campaign to prevent the "X Factor" winner getting that year's Christmas number one.
However it is their 2000 single "Sleep Now in the Fire" that features in the movie.
It plays as the Angels take a helicopter transporter vehicle after they flee from the bar with Ray Carter, drive it off of the top of a dam to avoid being blown up by a rockets that have been fired from a tank and a rocket launcher, and somehow end up inside the helicopter and flying off to safety.
3. "Mickey"
Answer: Toni Basil
American singer-songwriter Antonia Christina Basilotta, better known by her stage name Toni Basil, was born on 22nd September 1943 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. She is best known for her 1982 single "Mickey", which reached number one in the US, Canada, and Australia.
The song plays as we are introduced to Natalie during the montage when the voice of Charlie (provided by John Forsythe) introduces us to his three Angels and provides us with a little bit of information as to their backgrounds. The song plays as we see Natalie dressed as a mascot for a sports team known as the Beavers, leap through a banner, fall over, and lose her mascot head.
In typical Natalie fashion, she sees this as absolutely hilarious, and simply lies on the ground laughing.
4. "Through The Eyes Of Love"
Answer: Melissa Manchester
American singer-songwriter Melissa Manchester was born on 15th February 1951 in The Bronx, New York. She started her musical career by playing the Manhattan club scene before becoming a member of Bette Midler's backing group the Harlettes. Her 1979 single "Through the Eyes of Love", which originally featured on the soundtrack to the 1978 romantic drama movie "Ice Castles", also plays during the montage in which we are introduced to the Angels, as we see Alex (played by Lucy Liu) scoring a perfect 10 from the judges for her floor routine at a gymnastics competition.
5. "Rebel, Rebel"
Answer: David Bowie
One of the world's best-selling artists of all-time, David Bowie was born David Robert Jones on 8th January 1947, and died of liver cancer on 10th January 2016 aged sixty-nine. Released in February 1974, "Rebel, Rebel" was the lead single from his eighth studio album "Diamond Dogs", and the song also plays during the montage in which we are introduced to the Angels, as we see Dylan (played by Drew Barrymore) in a wrestling match, wrestling as Lady Insane, performing a moonsault off of the top rope to defeat her male opponent.
6. "Looks That Kill"
Answer: Motley Crue
Formed in 1981 in Los Angeles, California, the American heavy metal band Motley Crue primarily consisted of Vince Neil (vocals), Mick Mars (guitar), Nikki Sixx (bass), and Tommy Lee (drums) during their thirty-four year career. Their 1984 single "Looks That Kill" was the third single released from their second studio album "Shout at the Devil", and the song also plays during the montage in which we are introduced to the Angels, as we see a more grown-up Dylan competing in a Monster Truck race and performing a victory spin.
7. "Charlie's Angels 2000"
Answer: Apollo 440
Also known as Apollo Four Forty or @440, the English electronic rock band Apollo 440 were formed in Liverpool in 1990. Their 2000 single "Charlie's Angels 2000", which is a remix of the original "Charlie's Angels" theme, featured in the original 2000 "Charlie's Angels" movie, and it is re-used in the sequel, playing at the end of the montage in which we are introduced to the Angels.
It plays as we see clips of the Angels taking out an opposing roller skating team, Dylan on the bonnet of a moving car trying to stop the driver, Natalie using a laser beam to cut a hole in a window to recover a valuable artefact, Alex riding a horse and lassoing a bad guy, an outtake from the original movie, and the Angels running from a car which then explodes.
The song continues to play as the main title screen of the movie builds.
8. "U Can't Touch This"
Answer: MC Hammer
American hip-hop artist Stanley Kirk Burrell, better known by his stage name MC Hammer, was born on 30th March 1962 in Oakland, California. His 1990 single "U Can't Touch This" was a worldwide top ten hit, and catapulted Burrell to international fame.
The song plays as we see the Angels taking a break from helping Natalie and Pete (played by Luke Wilson) move into their new beach front house to have a dance to the "U Can't Touch This" video that is playing on the television.
9. "Centerfold"
Answer: The J. Geils Band
Led by guitarist John Warren Geils Jr. (known professionally as J. Geils), The J. Geils Band is an American rock band that were originally active between 1968 and 1985, and who have had a number of subsequent reunion appearances. They are probably best known for their 1981 single "Centerfold", which reached number one in the US, Canada, and Australia.
The song plays during the scene outside Natalie and Pete's new beach front house, as Jason (played by Matt LeBlanc) tells the girls and Pete about his new movie.
In unison the Angels all get a call to go into the office, leaving Pete and Jason to finish off moving Natalie and Pete's stuff into their new house. The guys knowingly yet somewhat frustratedly look at each other and say "Charlie".
10. "Who Are You"
Answer: The Who
Formed by Roger Daltrey (vocals), Pete Townshend (lead guitar), John Entwistle (bass), and Keith Moon (drums) in 1964, the English rock band The Who are one of the best-selling bands of all-time. Considered by many as one of the world's greatest ever rock bands, The Who were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990.
Their 1978 single "Who Are You" plays as the Angels and Bosley (played by Bernie Mac) turn up at the house of protected witness Alan Caulfield (played by Eric Bogosian), who had recently been killed, disguised as a crime scene investigation team in order to gather information to help them with their investigation.
