Music Trivia Derby

John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 31 2016 09:32 AM

Here's the rules -- Answer a question, then ask one. Q: This band had three, and only three, top-10 Billboard hits: One each in the 60s, 70s and 80s. Name that band! Name those hits!

TransMonk Aug 31 2016 02:17 PM Re: Music Trivia Derby

Top 10 Billboard hits on the US chart?

John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 31 2016 02:23 PM Re: Music Trivia Derby

Yes, as far as I can tell. Hint? Songs were 1965, 1972 and 1986!

G-Fafif Aug 31 2016 02:34 PM Re: Music Trivia Derby

The Moody Blues: the Mike Jorgensen of the Top 10. What sweet, sweet song held the No. 1 slot on Billboard as the Mets went to their first World Series?

TransMonk Aug 31 2016 02:47 PM Re: Music Trivia Derby

The Moody Blues: the Mike Jorgensen of the Top 10. What sweet, sweet song held the No. 1 slot on Billboard as the Mets went to their first World Series? I got Moody Blues, too, but "Your Wildest Dreams" from '86 is the only song I got...what are the other two songs from JCL's question? I want to think "Nights In White Satin" hit between '65 and '72, no?

John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 31 2016 02:55 PM Re: Music Trivia Derby

Nights in White Satin: No. 2, 1972 Your Wildest Dreams: No. 9, 1986 Go Now: No. 10, 1965 http://www.billboard.com/artist/300750/ ... lues/chart

I figured it was the Moody Blues, though. One of those prog-rock bands with staying power through the decades but not a lot of bonafide hits.

Okay, question from me, then. What band has the most Billboard Hot 100 #2 singles without a single #1 hit? (Hint: they call came in 1969 and 1970.)

The "Your Love" twins: For Your Love Sunshine of Your Love

Edgy MD Sep 01 2016 09:19 AM Re: Music Trivia Derby

Yeah, that sounds about right. "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" would only count if you considered playing on the B-side to "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da" as contributing to a hit, but even then, it only cracked, like, the top 60. They should have given George's song the A-side. Funny how everybody is asking Billboard-related questions.

Edgy MD Sep 01 2016 02:19 PM Re: Music Trivia Derby

I'll go with "Squeezebox."

Is it something lame like "Athena"?

sharpie Sep 01 2016 03:31 PM Re: Music Trivia Derby

She's a bomb. No to Athena. For the record, Squeeze Box topped out at #14 and Athena at #28. The song I'm looking for was their only Top 10 hit and topped out at #9.

I forgot to ask another question so here goes ... The category is -- the USA Billboard Hot 100.

*pause* I was cool with Athena, and generally liked the whole It's Hard album and that Who era. I know some Who-heads don't feel the same so much. I just looked at the It's Hard wiki- page and it says... "Athena" was played sporadically on the 1982 tour, sometimes as an encore and other times in the regular set. The band hated playing the song and thought that their performance on it was not up to their standards, so they dropped it in the middle of the tour. ... I did not know that until just NOW!! */pause*

Wicked Lester are my boys in Kiss. Gene and Paul reworked some of the songs for the first two Kiss albums. And I believe the Farriss Brothers became INXS. Saw them on the X tour, and it was a great show.

I'll go with Iggy Pop because I like the idea of him submitting a Christmas song to Celine Dion and him being afraid she wouldn't like him. Also, because he's from Michigan.

Mets Guy in Michigan Sep 06 2016 01:44 PM Re: Music Trivia Derby

Also a good guess, but not a correct one. Remember, I'm an adopted Michigander but a Massapequa Park native. A hint: The rocker's band does have a Christmas album, but it does not include this song. The song did, however, appear on another Christmas album with Celine singing it as a duet with someone you usually don't associate with singing.

Brian Setzer.

The Giant Sax Player from The E Street Band? Clarence?

Mets Guy in Michigan Sep 06 2016 02:33 PM Re: Music Trivia Derby

Brian Setzer is a cool fellow Massapequan and has some nice Christmas tunes, but he wouldn't scare Celine. Clarence's sax on "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" -- recorded at CW Post University! -- steals the song, but he didn't write for Celine.

Side note on Dee Snider, I once saw him coming out of a jewelry store in on Main St in Huntington. Kind of a tough guy to miss: tall, gawky looking dude with that rock-star haircut and a hot babe on his arm. Don't see a lot of that in the middle of the 'burbs.

This thread died.

Edgy MD Sep 11 2016 11:06 PM Re: Music Trivia Derby

I was about to go with Sade and Seal, but then I thought the artist for (d) is already on the board, and stupid me, I'm the one who put him there. Is it Adam and the Ants doing "Dog Eat Dog"? And then I realized, there's another band with a song of that name.

Sweet! OK, this is probably closer to one of our Klassic Rawk things than trivia, but I thought it was fun. I stumbled on a website that ranked every Bruce Springsteen song, from 1 to 314. That's way too many for us to guess, but let's see if you can fill out the top 10 (one at a time, of course) 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) 7) 8) 9) 10) Now, I like Springsteen, but I'm by no means a big fan, at least until he starts wearing face paint because we know my lowbrow -- don't say deplorable -- taste in music. I recognized everything in the top 10, so I don't think this is some fanboy plopping deep, deep tracks in there. But I was surprised by some of these, and there were some others I'd put there. (Then again, consider my tastes.) I'm sure he played about 295 of these at that recent concert you guys went to. Here are the BOTTOM five, so don't pick these. 310) Bishop Danced 311) This is Your Sword 312) The Angel 313) Mary, Queen of Arkansas 314) The Outside

As much as that song reeks of Bruce, it was in fact written and first recorded by California native Tom Waits (his wife is from Jersey) Bruce recorded it later on and occasionally uses it in shows, particularly in Jersey ones. TW's whiskey and cigarettes voice is a acquired taste, but there's very few like it. [youtube]TYGqnsIFhFQ[/youtube]

I doubt it's top-10 material, but there are only two songs off BtR that haven't been guessed already* so I'll take a shot on MEETING ACROSS THE RIVER btw, I was once given a book where a bunch of writers took the rather crime noir-ish concept and lyrics to MAtR as the basis for a short story.

Atlantic City And Sharpie nails the last one! HahnSolo snagged four, everyone else got one. Great job! I was glad to see my fave Bruce song, "Tunnel of Love" get some respect at No. 20.

The list seems uninspired — fine songs, to be sure, but packed with FM classick rock staples and singles from Born to Run to Born in the USA. It's like a big Born sandwich. At least surprise me with some "Human Touch" or "Murder Incorporated" or something.

HahnSolo Sep 14 2016 07:44 AM Re: Music Trivia Derby

OK, back to Billboard questions. Bob Seger has only hit #1 on the Hot 100 once, in 1987 with Shakedown. He wasn’t a total stranger to the top (or near top) of the charts though. Can you name: 1. The 1979 #1 hit (by another act) for which Seger shared a co-writing credit. 2. His second-highest charting single (either with or without the Silver Bullet Band). It peaked at #2. Oh, and what the heck, here’s a third: 3. The same week his song hit #2, a remake of another Seger song was in the top ten. Name the song and who recorded it.

Mets Guy in Michigan Sep 14 2016 07:49 AM Re: Music Trivia Derby

Good ones! 2. His second-highest charting single (either with or without the Silver Bullet Band). It peaked at #2. I'm gonna guess something king of cheesy, like "Old Time Rock and Roll."

Blue Oyster Cult, Butch Walker, Green Jelly, Husker Du, Motorhead, Motley Crue, Moxy Furious, Queensryche, and Spınal Tap all rock, to one degree or another, but indeed share another more important common thread. What is it?

HahnSolo Sep 14 2016 08:46 AM Re: Music Trivia Derby

umlauts?

Edgy MD Sep 14 2016 08:59 AM Re: Music Trivia Derby

Yes, they're correctly rendered as: Blue Oyster Cult, Bütch Walker, Green Jellÿ, Husker Dü, Mötley Crüe, Motörhead, Moxy Früvous, Queensrÿche, and Spın̈al Tap. First use of umlauts in a name was German band Amon Düül II in 1969. In 1971, But Blue Öyster Cult in 1970 pioneered the first use by a non-German band (who generally use the punctuation less for pronunciation an more for Gothic/Teutonic branding). Good on BÖC.

Live albums were popular in the 1970s. I'm guessing Before the Flood.

sharpie Sep 14 2016 03:05 PM Re: Music Trivia Derby

While live albums were popular, Before the Flood wasn't popular enough to get to #1. Close, though.

A hint. The remaining two albums were his first #1 and his, so far, last #1.

Love + Theft?

sharpie Sep 15 2016 07:15 AM Re: Music Trivia Derby

MGIM knows his late Dylan chartbusters. Together Through Life was #1 although "Love + Theft" (a far better album) wasn't. One album left, his first #1 from the '70's.

I just peeked. Curses to me. I'd not have guessed that one.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Sep 15 2016 08:27 AM Re: Music Trivia Derby

What I remember most about Love & Theft was walking around Soho on the day after 9/11, or maybe 2 or 3 days after, and seeing a poster for it on a construction fence surrounded by a million of those missing person fliers. It was released on 9/11. I'm just throwing out albums now so I'll guess the missing one is Street Legal

sharpie Sep 15 2016 10:05 AM Re: Music Trivia Derby

Not Street Legal. Street Legal came out after Blood On the Tracks and Desire. We are looking for his first #1 album.

The album I thought was referring to as Saved-- Slow Train Coming...

According to wikipedia, these 13 Klassik Rawkers range in age from 64 to 76, one of each that age as of today. Starting with the 64-year-old, rank these old bastards in order to 76: Pete Townshend Mick Jagger Bruce Springsteen Bob Dylan Sting Ian Anderson Steve Perry Ringo Starr Robert Plant Jimmy Page Phil Collins Barry Gibb Paul McCartney

I'll take Bruce for 65.

Frayed Knot Sep 15 2016 12:30 PM Re: Music Trivia Derby

The Sting part was a guess. But since that turned out to be right and I KNOW the ages two more, I'll add those in and then leave the rest for others. 64 - Sting 65 - 66 - 67 - 68 - 69 - 70 - 71 - 72 - 73 - 74 - Paul McCartney 75 - 76 - Ringo Starr
