Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. In what year did "Elvis: Aloha from Hawaii via Satellite" take place?

Answer: 1973

The concert took place on January 14, 1973, in Honolulu, Hawaii, at the Honolulu International Convention Center. Proceeds from the show went to the Kui Lee Cancer Fund.

2. What was the first tune played at the Aloha concert?

Answer: Also Sprach Zarathustra

"Also Sprach Zarathustra" was played at most of Elvis's concerts in the 1970s. It is the theme of the movie "2001: A Space Odyssey". "See See Rider" was the first song he performed, but that's not what the question said, now was it?

3. In "Suspicious Minds", he says a phrase that is not originally in the song. What does he not want to tear up? ("I hope this _______ don't tear up, baby")

Answer: suit

I guess his suit was a little too tight, because this is when he began gaining weight.

4. What does he accept from a member of the audience right after he finishes "Burning Love"?

Answer: a lei

He accepted a single, red lei from a girl in the audience right after he sang his second song, "Burning Love", a hit from 1972.

5. Who had previously performed the song "Something" before Elvis did at this concert?

He sang a great version of George Harrison's "Something", right after "Burning Love".

The songs that he recorded after the concert were: "Blue Hawaii", "Ku-U-I-Po", "No More", "Hawaiian Wedding Song", and "Early Morning Rain". He finished recording them at about 3:30AM.

9. The concert wasn't shown in North America until April.
