Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. In the song 'Kiss Off', what does Gordon say 8 was for?

Answer: 'I forget what 8 was for'

 '1,1,1 cause you left me and 2,2,2 for my family and 3,3,3 for my heartache and 4,4,4 for my headache and 6,6,6 for my sorrow and 7 no tomorrow and 8,8, I forget what 8 was for but 9,9,9 for my lost god and 10 for EVERYTHING!'
2. In what are 'the mother and the kid, the guy and his date' waiting?

Answer: a bus

 Easy one that, it's in the title.
3. What line immediately precedes 'I want lots of pretty chicks'?

Answer: 36-24-36

 An allusion to the so-called 'perfect' female measurements.
4. In the song 'I Held Her in My Arms', finish the line: 'I was with a girl, but I felt like I was with a ____'

Answer: boy

 A little odd that one.
5. Which country did 'She' go to, leaving him in misery, in the song from the album 'Rock'?

Answer: Germany

 'She went to Germany, went there without me, she went to Germany, left me in misery.' Great song.
6. From the same album ('Rock'), what is life according to the song title?

Answer: An adventure

 'Life is an adventure, made for an adventurer, made just for the boy who can grow up strong and become a man'.
7. In 'Gimme the Car', what reason is given for the guy wanting to borrow it from his dad?

Answer: all of these

 A very morbid song.
8. In the 'Country Death Song', who does the man kill?

Answer: His youngest daughter

 He pushes her down a well, and at the end of the song he's on his way to the barn to hang himself. Horrible words but a strangely addictive tune!
9. Finish the line: 'Cause it's gone daddy gone, your love is gone ____'?

Answer: away

 Pretty easy, you could have guessed that even without hearing the song!
10. Finally a question on my personal favourite. The song 'Good Feeling' has a solo from what instrument (in the album version)?

Answer: violin

 Yep, beautiful. There is a xylophone solo in 'Gone Daddy Gone'. Hope you liked it. If I get a good response I will do more quizzes on the Femmes.
