Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: Blue

Vienna Teng recorded "Waking Hour" in 2001, making a thousand cds of it, which were pretty much all sold by the end of the year. So she recorded it again: same songs, same tracklist, different cover.

2. What musical instrument does Vienna Teng play?

Answer: Piano

Vienna Teng had been playing classical piano since the tender age of five and had private piano lessons until she graduated from high school.

3. There are an unlucky thirteen tracks on the cd "Waking Hour".

Answer: True

Evidently Vienna Teng is not superstitious. In between the first track, "The Tower" and the last, "Decade and One", there are eleven songs. (THINK: 2 + 11 =...)

4. Every song in "Waking Hour" is filled with Vienna Teng's luscious voice... except one. Which song is the only instrumental in this cd?

Answer: Waking Hour

Maybe this has something to do with the cd's title...?

5. What adjective fills the blank?: Lullaby for a ______ Night.

Answer: Stormy

"Lullaby for a Stormy Night" is the twelfth track on Waking Hour (besides also having the most letters in its title of all the tracks).

6. Which of these is the title to the song in which people are giggling and talking in the background?

Answer: Enough to Go By

I don't know why there are the giggling people. I personally don't really appreciate their noise. But variety's the spice of life, you know?

7. Which song features these lyrics: "...And of course I forgive/I've seen how you live/Like a phoenix you rise from the ashes" ?

Answer: Eric's Song

Please, please, please get this one right! (For those of you who are doing this quiz before you listened to "Waking Hour", I'll have you know that this cd is completely Ernie, Erica and Emmy-free.)

Answer: Alanis Morisette

I got this fascinating info from Vienna's web site, http://www.viennateng.com. In fact, the first time I heard Vienna's stuff (a friend was playing it), I thought it was Tori Amos.

9. Vienna Teng writes her own songs.

Answer: True

It makes an artist so much more awe-striking when they write their own songs, don't you think?

10. Okay, one more question... let me think.... Which best describes Vienna Teng's hair?

Answer: Short, strait and black

This was a stupid question. Ah, well. All you other fellow Vienna Teng fans know that Vienna (currently) keeps her black Asian hair very short. If I had hair like hers, I probably would too. Thanks for coping with and completing my first Music quiz!
