Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. "Are you wanting inspiration. You spill your secrets on me. Then you tell me with a whisper, of things that will never be..." In which Black Crowes song can these lyrics be found?

Answer: Thorn In My Pride

"Thorn in My Pride" is one of the bands most popular hits. This powerful ballad can be found on the band's 1992 album "Southern Harmony and Musical Companion". The song may start out slow but it builds to a strong and emotional crescendo.

2. In which song is the following lyric found: "On a good day, it's not every day, we can part the sea. And on a bad day, it's not every day, glory beyond our reach."?

Answer: Wiser Time

This is the chorus to the song "Wiser Time" which closes out the band's brilliant 1994 album "Amorica". It is an emotional song highlighted by a haunting piano melody and rich lyrics.

3. "If I come on like a dream...Would you let me show you what I mean?" In which song is this question asked?

Answer: Remedy

"Remedy" is one of the band's more popular songs and is definitely a fan favorite in concert. It is song that can be interpreted in many ways, most having to do with the life of a rock star while on the road.

4. "He had twenty-nine blackbirds, but only one flew. Spent most of his time making holes, and licking his wounds" On which song is this lyric found?

Answer: Nebakanezer

"Nebakanezer" is a song that is hard to definitively say what it about. It could be about a lot of things, including the ancient King of the same name. The song is featured on their 1996 album "Three Snakes and One Charm".

5. "Tried to stay away from this year's big thing. Ain't as easy as it seems, to find a mutual dream..." This lyric can be found in which song?

Answer: A Conspiracy

"A Conspiracy" was the biggest hit on the band's "Amorica" album. It is a favorite among casual fans of the band when at their shows. There is a reason for that...it's a good song!

6. "Sometimes a memory only sees what it wants to believe, And what's filled in between are days and nights that don't mean a thing..." In which song can this lyric be found?

Answer: Bad Luck Blue Eyes Goodbye

"Bad Luck Blue Eyes Goodbye" is a meaningful song that can be found on the band's 1992 album "Southern Harmony and Musical Companion". The song paints a picture of the feelings related to breaking off a relationship that seemingly never truly existed in the first place.

7. "When you're lost, I am found. When you slip, I hold my ground. When I fall, Please take a bow. And when you're up, Just remember I am down..." What song is this lyric from?

Answer: By Your Side

The song "By Your Side" can conveniently be found on the band's 1999 album "By Your Side". It is the lone radio hit found on the album, which is a shame, cause it is an all around good album.

8. "Action speaks louder than words, And I'm a man of great experience. I know you've got another man, But I can love you better than him..." In which song can this lyric be found?

Answer: Hard to Handle

The Black Crowes did not originally write the song, but they are certainly the band that made it popular. It was actually written by Otis Redding. The Crowes version of the song can be found on their 1990 debut album "Shake Your Money Maker".

9. "I don't know my telephone number, but you kiss good and I'd like to see you tomorrow..." In which song is this lyric heard?

Answer: Nonfiction

"Nonfiction" is my favorite song off the 1994 "Amorica" album. It tells the story of relationships the lead singer Chris Robinson had during his more "boisterous" days on the road with the band. He has since "settled down" and has started a family with actress Kate Hudson.

Answer: She Talks to Angels

This by far is the band's most popular song. You pretty much couldn't go anywhere in the early 1990's without hearing it! Thanks for playing my quiz. I hope you enjoyed it! Check out some of my other quizzes while you're down here.
