Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. The first song performed in "Hell-O" was Finn's rendition of a song by which band?

Answer: The Doors

Performing James Morrison's vocals on "Hello, I Love You", Finn kicks off the songs of the back nine episodes of "Glee's" first season. Reaching #66 on the Billboard charts in the US, the song was not included on "Glee: The Music - Vol. 3 (Showstoppers)".

The original version by The Doors hit #1 on the Billboard 'Hot 100' in 1968 and appeared on their "Waiting for the Sun" album. In the episode, Will instructs the kids to find a new way to say 'hello' through song and with some convincing he persuades Finn to sing this hit through the halls of the school.

At the time, Finn is dealing with his love issues. While he's dating Rachel, he wants to tell the truth to Quinn.
2. To express her anger, Rachel sings what All-American Rejects song in "Hell-O"?

Answer: Gives You Hell

Finn is unable to deal with being in a relationship with Rachel and decides to break it off. Rachel is surprised and (clearly) disappointed and she decides to make use of her weekly assignment by performing "Gives You Hell" (with the rest of New Directions backing her up). Mr. Schuester is clearly displeased with this obvious display towards Finn and Rachel simply replies she focused on the first syllable of the week's assignment. "Gives You Hell" was originally released on the All-American Rejects' third album, "When the World Comes Down", as its first single (hitting #1 on two US Billboard charts).

The "Glee" version, released as a single from "Glee: The Music - Vol. 3 (Showstoppers)", hit #1 in Ireland and #32 on the Billboard charts, the highest-ranking song in the "Glee" setlist since "Defying Gravity" in the show's ninth episode ("Wheels").
3. In "Hell-O", Jesse and Rachel sing a Lionel Richie duet on a piano. What is the apt name for this song?

Answer: Hello

Rachel, needing to revise her 'hello-themed' project heads to the library to pick out her new song. Here, she runs into rival showman Jesse St. James, the lead singer for Vocal Adrenaline, their competition for Regionals. He already knows who she is and decides to sit her down at the piano to extend his greeting to her.

The two sing Lionel Richie's "Hello" which hit #1 in the US and UK (via Billboard and the UK Singles Chart) in 1984 and she falls for him. "Hello" was, in fact, released as a single from "Glee: The Music - Vol. 3 (Showstoppers)" where it reached a peak of #35 on the Billbaort charts.
4. The entire Glee Club sings the closing song for "Hell-O", "Hello Goodbye".

Answer: True

Finn is unable to get Rachel back, Rachel is holding in a secret from the rest of the club, and Will is forced to put his relationship with Emma on hold as the episode ends and the kids finally find the right way for them all to to say 'hello'. The selection: a routine choreographed on stage to The Beatles' "Hello, Goodbye".

As the song comes to a close, Rachel is unable to look at Finn on stage knowing her emotions and his plans to win her heart over. The original version of the song appeared on the "Magical Mystery Tour" album and hit # in in the US and UK, even becoming the Christmas #1 single in Britain.

The "Glee" rendition broke #49 on the Billboard charts and appeared on "Glee: The Music - Vol. 3 (Showstoppers)".
5. On which of these is the song "Ray of Light" performed by students in "The Power of Madonna"?

Answer: Stilts

The first number of the episode, Will comes across the Cheerios practicing their routine in the school gym to the tune of "Ray of Light". While this intricate number is pulled off by the kids, Sue comments that their work has Madonna weeping in a stately manor home somewhere in Britain and that they should be disappointed with their sloppy work. "Ray of Light" does not, inevitably, become the number performed by her squad during competition later in the season.

The routine does, however, inspire Will's assignment for New Directions for the week. "Ray of Light" was released as the second single from Madonna's album of the same name in 1998 and the song itself won two Grammy Awards. "Glee" used the Madonna version of the song and as such it was the only one from the episode not included on the "Glee: The Power of Madonna" album.
6. Kurt and which other New Directions member perform in Sue's "Vogue" video in "The Power of Madonna"?

Answer: Mercedes

After Will makes fun of Sue's hair, she bares all to Kurt and Mercedes in her office and they all decide to collaborate for a Madonna multimedia presentation. Their idea, give Sue a makeover, use the Cheerios, and produce a remake of Madonna's "Vogue" music video.

The song is the first in the series in which Sue Sylvester performs, and it is the first in which a music video is completely reenacted. Unfortunately, the makeover doesn't stick. "Vogue" did not chart after its release on "Glee: The Power of Madonna", but Madonna's rendition was fairly important in her career- especially its music video.

It won (and was nominated for) several MVAs and reached #1 on four separate 'Billboard' charts.
7. Santana performs in the "Like a Virgin" performance in "The Power of Madonna".

Answer: True

In her first major singing performance, Santana performs with Finn in a hotel room while Rachel and Jesse sing from Rachel's bedroom and Will and Emma sing from his apartment. All three (Rachel, Emma, and Finn) prepare to face issues regarding their virginity on the same night and sing the song as they begin to settle in with their respective partners.

It turns out, at the end of the song, they had daydreamed the entire thing and still needed to face their problems in reality. "Like a Virgin" appeared as a track on the "Glee: The Power of Madonna" EP and it reached a peak of #87 on the 'Billboard' charts. Madonna's version of the song appeared on her second album (of the same name) and it reached #1 on the 'Billboard Hot 100' in 1984.
8. Which is the only song from "The Power of Madonna" to be performed by the entire Glee Club?

Answer: Like a Prayer

Hands-down the top-selling single released from "Glee: The Power of Madonna", "Like a Prayer" hit #27 on the Billboard charts and became the highest-charting "Glee" song since "Don't Stop Believin'" hit #4 in the Pilot episode (though "Somebody to Love" reached #28). "Like a Prayer" originally appeared on Madonna's album of the same name where it hit #1 in the States and went Platinum. The song closes the episode and it is performed on the auditorium stage by the entire Glee Club.

It is the first song in which Jesse St. James (originally of Vocal Adrenaline) is a member of New Directions. All three of the other choices were also performed in this episode.
9. In the episode "Home", April Rhodes performs Barbra Streisand's medley of "One Less Bell to Answer" and "A House Is Not a Home". Who sings "A House is Not a Home" earlier in the episode?

Answer: Kurt

In this episode, Kurt and Finn both share differing emotions regarding their parents who found each other through Kurt's insistence. In an attempt to get Finn to move in with him, Kurt sings the song in Glee Club. Finn is moved enough by the piece to sing it to his father's ashes at home and Will feels its resonance because of his pending divorce from Terri. April Rhodes, who reappears in this episode (having last been seen in "The Rhodes Not Taken") spends the night at Will's and sings a duet of Barbra Streisand's version (along with "One Less Bell to Answer"). "A House is Not a Home" was originally released by Dionne Warwick in 1964 while the Streisand version released in 1971. Kurt's version of the song reached #70 on the Billboard chart while April's medley hit #53. Both appeared on "Glee: The Music - Vol. 3 (Showstoppers)" as singles.
10. Where does Mercedes sing "Beautiful" in "Home"?

Answer: The school gym

During this episode, Mercedes deals with problems fitting into the Cheerios squad headed by Sue Sylvester. Forced to lose weight, she finds herself getting sick because of her extreme diet and she finds a helpful friend in Quinn who was once in the same position as she was.

She rediscovers her self-esteem and performs Christina Aguilera's "Beautiful" with New Directions and the Cheerios backing her up during a school pep rally organized by Sue. Although Sue never planned for this to occur, it worked out in the end for her as an investigative reporter had arrived to write an article about her and had been impressed with the show. This song was originally released by Aguilera on her second album, "Stripped", in 2002 where it reached several #1 positions worldwide.

The "Glee" version of the song, appearing on "Glee: The Music - Vol. 3 (Showstoppers)", hit #61 on Billboard.
