Find The Rod Stewart Songs Trivia Quiz

Answer:

In 2016, Roderick David Stewart was knighted by Prince William at Buckingham Palace and named Sir Rod Stewart at the Queen's Birthday Honours. In 1994 he was inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame as a solo artist, then again inducted in 2012 for his role in the Faces. Prior to his illustrious solo career, Rod was a member of the Jeff Beck Group and the Faces.

The earliest song on the quiz, "Maggie May", was released in 1971 on Rod's classic album, "Every Picture Tells A Story". One of "Rolling Stone Magazine's" top 500 songs of all-time, "Maggie May" was originally released as the B-side for "Reason To Believe"! Both songs became famous again in 1993 when Rod released the album "Unplugged...and Seated". The songs were part of an MTV concert series that featured Stewart's biggest hits performed acoustically. "What Made Milwaukee Famous (Has Made A Loser Out of Me)" was first a single for Jerry Lee Lewis in 1968, but Rod Stewart covered it in 1972 where it was a double sided single with "Angel".

In the mid-1970s, Rod Stewart's popularity peaked with "Tonight's the Night (Gonna Be Alright)", a sexy pop smash that appears on his "A Night On The Town" album. The song stays at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 for eight consecutive weeks. "Tonight's The Night" included a section with his girlfriend at the time, Britt Ekland, speaking sexy in French as the song concluded. "First Cut Is The Deepest" was written by Cat Stevens. It was covered by Rod Stewart in 1977 at the legendary Muscle Shoals Studio in Alabama. "First Cut" went to number one on the UK Singles chart.

Rod Stewart dipped his toes into the late 1970s disco scene with two unforgettable singles, "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy" and "Passion". Both songs combined rock guitars with a pulsating drum track. The first song was released in 1978 on "Blondes Have More Fun". "Passion" came out in 1980 on "Foolish Behaviour". Each track was a worldwide smash. In 1988, Stewart released the album "Out Of Order", one of the most underrated albums of his discography. The title track and the ballad, "My Heart Can't Tell You No" were standouts. Country singer Barbara Mandrell was originally going to record "My Heart Can't Tell You No", but Stewart kept it for himself. Critics didn't love the commercial appeal of the song, but Stewart fans loved the song and it became a concert staple.

In 1991, Rod released the album "Vagabond Heart". The album's two biggest singles were a cover of Van Morrison's "Have I Told You Lately" and "Rhythm Of My Heart". The latter song went top five on the Billboard Hot 100 and paid homage to Rod's Scottish roots with including bagpipes in the arrangement. Also included on "Vagabond Heart" was a cover of Robbie Robertson's "Broken Arrow". The song was the fourth single and went top 20 on the Billboard Hot 100. The soaring ballad was enhanced by a memorable music video that received heavy airplay on VH1.

The wrong answers were by Bob Seger, "Mainstreet" and "Hollywood Nights". The Rolling Stones recorded "Fool To Cry" and "Tumbling Dice". Eric Clapton released "Change The World" and "Wonderful Tonight".
