Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Jive Alive

Answer: Stayin' Talkin'

"Jive Talkin'" and "Stayin' Alive" by the Bee Gees.

The Bee Gees consisted of the Gibb brothers, Barry, Robin, and Maurice, who were born on the Isle of Man, but emigrated to Australia with their parents and other siblings in 1958.

Originally called "Drive Talking", "Jive Talkin'" was released in May 1975 as the lead single from the Bee Gees' "Main Course" album. It reached number one on the US Billboard Hot 100.

One of the Bee Gees' signature songs, "Stayin' Alive" was the second single released from the soundtrack to the 1977 movie "Saturday Night Fever", which starred John Travolta as white suit-wearing disco dancing Tony Manero.
2. Just Like a DJ

Answer: God Is a Pill

"Just Like a Pill" and "God Is a DJ" by Pink.

Alecia Beth Moore was born in Pennsylvania on 8th September 1979. She took on the stage name Pink (often stylised as P!nk) as, when she was a teenager, her friends all agreed she resembled the character Mr. Pink from the 1992 Quentin Tarantino movie "Reservoir Dogs".

Taken from her second studio album "Missundaztood", the 2002 single "Just Like a Pill" became Pink's first solo UK number one hit, her collaboration with Christina Aguilera, Lil' Kim, and Mya on the smash hit "Lady Marmalade" giving Pink her first UK number one the previous year.

Featuring on the soundtrack to the 2004 movie "Mean Girls" starring Lindsay Lohan, "God Is a DJ" was taken from Pink's third studio album "Try This".
3. Manic Flame

Answer: Eternal Monday

"Manic Monday" and "Eternal Flame" by The Bangles.

Formed in late 1980 in Los Angeles by Susanna Hoffs, and sisters Vicki and Debbi Peterson, the band was originally called The Bangs, but as a band called The Bangs already existed in New York, the girls renamed themselves The Bangles in 1982 and the rest, as they say, is history!

Written by Prince, the 1986 single "Manic Monday" became the band's first commercial hit, reaching number two in the USA, the UK, Austria, Canada, Germany, and Ireland.

Three years later, the band released "Eternal Flame" as the second single from their third studio album "Everything", and it achieved huge success, reaching number one in nine countries.
4. Hound Rock

Answer: Jailhouse Dog

"Hound Dog" and "Jailhouse Rock" by Elvis Presley.

The "King of Rock and Roll" Elvis Aaron Presley was born in Tupelo, Mississippi on 8th January 1935, and is probably the most well-known recording artist of all-time.

Written by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, "Hound Dog" was originally released by Willie Mae Thornton in 1953, however it is Elvis Presley's 1956 recording that is by far the best-known version of the song.

Elvis released "Jailhouse Rock", also written by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, in September 1957 to coincide with the release of the movie of the same name, which starred Elvis in the role of singing prisoner Vince Everett.
5. Chasing the Rain

Answer: Set Fire to Pavements

"Chasing Pavements" and "Set Fire to the Rain" by Adele.

Adele Adkins was born on 5th May 1988 in London. Her debut album "19", which has gone multi-platinum in both the UK and USA, was released when she was just nineteen years of age.

"Chasing Pavements" was the second single released from Adele's "19" album. It was nominated for three awards at the 2009 Grammys, and took home the award for Best Female Vocal Performance.

Adele's 2011 single "Set Fire to the Rain" only reached number eleven in the UK Singles Chart, but fared much better in the USA, becoming Adele's third consecutive single from her second studio album "21" to reach number one in the Billboard Hot 100.
6. Everybody Get Movin'

Answer: Keep On Up

"Everybody Get Up" and "Keep On Movin'" by Five.

Released in 1998 as the fourth single from the band's debut self-titled album, "Everybody Get Up" contains samples from the 1982 song "I Love Rock 'n Roll' by Joan Jett & the Blackhearts.

"Keep On Movin'" was released the following year, the second single from Five's second studio album "Invincible", and became the band's first UK number one single.
7. I Wanna Dance with You

Answer: I Will Always Love Somebody (Who Loves Me)

"I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me)" and "I Will Always Love You" by Whitney Houston.

One of the best selling popular music artists of all-time, Whitney Elizabeth Houston was born on 9th August 1963, and died on 11th February 2012, the cause of death being accidental drowning following a massive heart attack that was in part due to years of drug abuse.

Released in 1987 as the first single from Whitney Houston's second studio album "Whitney", "I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me)" was a massive commercial success, reaching number one in thirteen countries.

"I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me)" remained Whitney's biggest hit for five years, and then she unleashed her version of Dolly Parton's "I Will Always Love You" on the world. Recorded for the 1992 movie "The Bodyguard", in which Whitney starred alongside Kevin Costner, "I Will Always Love You" was number one on the UK singles chart for eight weeks, and number one on the US Billboard Hot 100 for fourteen weeks.
8. Wait and Forget

Answer: Before I Bleed

"Wait and Bleed" and "Before I Forget" by Slipknot.

Founded in Des Moines, Iowa in 1995, Slipknot are a heavy metal band that are famous for wearing (generally somewhat creepy or grotesque) masks during their performances.

"Wait and Bleed" was the first single released from Slipknot's self-titled debut album in 1999. The song won "Best Single" at the Kerrang! Awards in 2000.

Released in 2005 as the third single from their third studio album "Vol. 3: (The Subliminal Verses)", "Before I Forget" finally gained Slipknot a "Best Metal Performance" Grammy at their sixth time of asking.
9. Tiny Man

Answer: Rocket Dancer

"Tiny Dancer" and "Rocket Man" by Elton John.

Born Reginald Dwight on 25th March 1947, the flamboyant and easily recognisable Elton John began his music career in 1963 and is one of the most successful singers and composers of all time. He was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II on 24th February 1998.

Released as a single from his "Madman Across the Water" album, "Tiny Dancer" is one of the many singles Elton produced with his long-time collaborator, lyricist Bernie Taupin. Ed Sheeran gives a nod to the song in his 2017 single "Castle on the Hill", with the lyrics "I'm on my way, driving at 90 down those country lanes, singing to "Tiny Dancer"".

Elton and Bernie collaborated again on the single "Rocket Man", which has the official title "Rocket Man (I Think It's Going to Be a Long, Long Time)". It reached number two in the UK Singles Chart, being held off the top spot by T. Rex's "Metal Guru".
10. Right into You

Answer: I'm So Here

"Right Here" and "I'm So into You" by SWV.

Originally formed as a gospel group in 1986, SWV (which stands for 'Sisters With Voices') had a string of hit singles in the 1990s, which saw them become one of the most one of the most successful R&B bands of that era.

"Right Here" was originally released in 1992 as SWV's debut single off of their debut album "It's About Time", but it wasn't until the following year when it was remixed by Teddy Riley and re-released under the title "Right Here (Human Nature Remix)" that it became a smash hit, spending over a year on the Billboard R&B singles chart.

Also released in 1992, and the second single from the band's debut album, "I'm So into You" reached number six on the Billboard Hot 100, and number two on the Billboard R&B singles chart.
