Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: Eagles

"Heartache Tonight," a huge hit from "The Long Run."
2. Which artist sang these lyrics: "I've been drawn into your magnet tar pit trap. I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn black. Hey, wait, I got a new complaint, forever in debt to your priceless advice."?

Answer: Guns 'n' Roses

"November Rain," from "Use Your Illusion I." The video was inspired by Del James' short story "Without You."

The video doesn't make clear how the young bride dies. The story explains that she killed herself, because she couldn't stand her selfish husband's cheating ways any longer.

5. In 1979, which act recorded a song that included the following lyrics: "Do you love me? Will you love me forever? Do you need me? Will you never leave me? Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life? Will you take me away and will you make me your wife?"?

"Paradise by the Dashboard Light," from the "Bat Out of Hell Album." Former Yankees shortstop Phil Rizzuto provided some memorable guest "vocals."

"Ghost of a Chance," from "Roll the Bones." Like his hero, Ayn Rand, Rush lyricist Neil Peart has always been skeptical about the supernatural.
9. What Sixties bubblegum band sang "Baby, I was feeling the way I want to feel. You had me believing the love we had was real. Things we did together, you said they'd never end. Now and till forever, oh yeah, that's what you said."?

Forever is a long time, as a wise man once said!
