Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. "Did you think I would stand here and lie while our moment was passing us by?"

Answer: Cyndi Lauper

 From "Change of Heart," the opening track of Lauper's 1986 album "True Colors." As a side note, The Bangles sang back-up on this track.
2. "Why do we never get an answer when we're knocking at the door?"

Answer: The Moody Blues

 The opening line of "Question," from the 1970 release "A Question of Balance."
3. "Who's gonna pay attention to your dreams? And who's gonna plug their ears when you scream?"

Answer: The Cars

 From the uncharacteristically slow and haunting "Drive," from the 1984 album "Heartbeat City." Another unusual thing about this track is that Benjamin Orr, as opposed to usual front man Ric Ocasek, sings lead vocals. Orr only did this once in a while.

Answer: The Beach Boys

 A line from the hit "Wouldn't It Be Nice," off of the seminal 1966 LP "Pet Sounds."

Answer: Rick Springfield

 This one's from "Don't Talk To Strangers," a chart-topper from the 1982 album "Success Hasn't Spoiled Me Yet."
6. "Did you think I could hate you, or raise my hand to you?"

Answer: Billy Vera and the Beaters

 From Vera's "At This Moment," which became an enormous hit after it was featured on an episode of the highly popular NBC sitcom "Family Ties" in 1987.
7. "What's the matter with your life? Is the poverty bringin' you down? Is the mailman jerkin' you 'round? Did he put your million-dollar check in someone else's box?"

Answer: Prince and the Revolution

 The opening lines of "Pop Life," a release from the 1985 album "Around the World in a Day."
8. "And did you exchange a walk-on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?"

Answer: Pink Floyd

 A clever metaphorical line from the title track of the 1975 album "Wish You Were Here."
9. "When you make love, do you look in the mirror? Who do you think of? Does he look like me?"

Answer: Def Leppard

 The opening lines of "Love Bites," a ballad of sorts from the 1987 album "Hysteria."
10. "Tell us, General -- is it party time? If it is, can we all come?"

Answer: Men At Work

 From the anti-war anthem "It's a Mistake," off of the 1983 album "Cargo." Let me know if you enjoyed this quiz -- there could easily be more to come, if you guys ask for it!
