Soundtrack to "Van Wilder: Party Liaison" Quiz

Answer: Jimmy Eat World

American rock band Jimmy Eat World were formed in Arizona in 1993. "Authority Song" is taken from their 2001 album "Bleed American" which provided the band with their commercial breakthrough.

"Authority Song" plays at the start of the movie as we see Van driving his golf cart through the college grounds, and parking it in Professor McDoogle's reserved parking spot before walking into the main college building to interview people to be his assistant for this academic year.

Answer: Sugarcult

Sugarcult is an American rock band that were formed in Santa Barbara, California in 1999. "How Does It Feel?" is taken from their third studio album "Start Static" which was released in 2001.

"How Does It Feel?" plays as Van (who has Taj, his new assistant, with him) once again parks his golf cart in Professor McDoogle's reserved parking spot, and this time walks into the sports hall where the Coolidge College Chickadees basketball team are losing badly to the away team. Back outside, Professor McDoogle turns up and shakes Van's golf cart, frustrated that Van has parked in his spot, when the campus cop turns up and says "Sir, I'm going to have to ask you to step away from Van's vehicle".

Answer: Sum 41

Originally called Kaspir, Sum 41 was formed in Ontario, Canada in 1996 by Deryck Whibley, Steve Jocz, Richard Roy and Jon Marshal. "Makes No Difference" is the band's debut single, released in June 2000 as the lead single from their debut EP "Half Hour of Power".

"Makes No Difference" plays as the Coolidge College Chickadees basketball team return to the court having received one of Van's legendary motivational speeches. Van's words have clearly had a positive impact, as we see the Chickadees score a number of impressive baskets.

Answer: The Nextmen

British musicians Dom Search (real name Dominic Betmead) and Brad Baloo (real name Brad Ellis) have performed as The Nextmen since 2000. "We Got" is taken from the duo's debut album "Amongst the Madness" which was released in 2000.

"We Got" plays at the start of the cross dressing underwear party scene. Van's father turns up to tell Van that he has placed a stop payment on this semester's cheque, and is horrified to see Van emerge from a closet wearing a dress, although his fatherly fears are allayed when a girl follows out behind Van.

Answer: N.E.R.D.

N.E.R.D. (which is a backcronym of No-one Ever Really Dies) is a hip-hop / rock band consisting of Pharrell Williams, Chad Hugo, and Shay Haley. "Things Are Getting Better" is taken from their debut studio album "In Search of..." which was released in 2001.

"Things Are Getting Better" plays as Van, Taj and Hutch are driving in Van's golf cart, and, when questioned by Hutch, Taj advises that Van only has $34 left to his name. Hutch asks Van what he is going to do $34, and we see in the next scene that Van is going to spend it on treating his new and clearly loyal assistant, Taj.

Answer: Sugarcult

The second of Sugarcult's songs in this movie, "Bouncing Off the Walls" was the second single released from the band's third studio album "Start Static", and the music video for the single features clips from the movie.

"Bouncing Off the Walls" plays as we are shown a montage of scenes that pertain to Van's first money making scheme to try and keep him in college.

Answer: Sprung Monkey

American rock band Sprung Monkey were formed in San Diego, California in 1991. "Get A Taste" is the title track from their third studio album which was released in 2001.

"Get a Taste" plays as we see Van giving some basic medical advice to a younger student, before Gwen comes into his room and advises that she is doing a human interest piece on Van for the school newspaper. The song also plays later in the movie when we see Gwen fix Richard his protein shake for his exam and interview, and it continues during the subsequent montage of Richard struggling in his exam whilst Van is studying hard for his forthcoming finals.

Answer: Llama

Formed in Nashville, Tennessee by high school friends Ben Brown, Neil Mason, Ben Morton, and Matthew Stewart, Llama was an alternative rock band that was active between 1996 and 2003. "Too Much, Too Soon" is taken from their debut album "Close to the Silence", which was released in 2001.

"Too Much, Too Soon" plays as we see Gwen's roommate getting ready for a date before Richard comes into Gwen's room and says "Somebody got awfully dressed up to quiz me on my first anatomy midterm". When Gwen advises Richard that she has an interview for the paper, and that it is with a man, Richard is clearly not best pleased.

Answer: American Hi-Fi

American rock band American Hi-Fi were formed in 1998 in Boston, Massachusetts. "I'm a Fool" is taken from their 2001 eponymous debut album which also contains the single for which the band are probably best known, "Flavor of the Weak".

"I'm a Fool" plays as we see a number of people, including Van, lining up to take part in the Coolidge College Naked Mile Run. Gwen arrives and, clearly a little embarrassed, says "This was a really bad idea, I'm leaving" before dashing off.

Answer: Atomic Kitten

Founded by Andy McCluskey and Stuart Kershaw of Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD), the British girl group Atomic Kitten originally consisted of Liz McClarnon, Kerry Katona and Heidi Range. "Turn Me On" is taken from their debut studio album "Right Now" which was released in 2000.

"Turn Me On" plays at the start of the roller skating party that Van has organised for Panos Patakos and the Lambda Omega Omega fraternity. Van sees that the Lambda Omega Omega guys are playing video games rather than roller skating and interacting with the other party-goers, launching him into one of his legendary motivational speeches and introducing them to Sherri and Terri, who apparently like the more intellectual gentleman.
