Day 5 – Quizzes, please!
Send us some quizzes!
A few of you suggested that we do quizzes during one of our Livestreams. Great idea!
So, for today, please send us some good online quizzes we could have a look at tomorrow! Maybe something music related but we’re open for anything, just leave a link in the comments below.
If they are on the shorter side, we might be able to attempt a few of them 🙂
Stay groovy,
Mona & Lisa
This is not a quiz but more of a ” Did You Know ” ….thing….
For example :
Did U Know that Ja’net Dubois who sang ” The Jeffersons ” tv show Theme song played ” Willona ” on ” Good Times”and a very young Hanet Jackson played Penny on ” Good Times ….
Laurie Metcalfe and her real life daughter Zoe Perry both portrayed Sheldon Cooper’s Mom
Both Goldie Hawn and her daughter Kate Hudson played roles in movies of a groupie/fan of bands , Goldie in ” Banger Sisters” while Jate Hudson was in ” Almost Famous ”
John Sebastian sang the ” Welcome Back Kotter “tv show theme song
Dusty Springfield for one/two seasons along with BJ Thomas sang the theme song fir ” Growing Pains ” tv show while Jennifer Warnes/BJ Thomas did originally
Lol….that ‘s about all my tired mind can come up with … I’m soon off to bed…. see yas on Livestream Wednesday at 4 pm my time
Good night Jacki, looking forward to the Livestream.
The only quizzes I regularly see are the ones on Youtube asking about whether I’ve seen some company’s advertisements lately.
This sounds like a fun idea. I had a couple of ideas, but I think the ones posted below are better.
Um…. nit quite sure but how do you take part in these YouTube Quizzes.. do you answer in the comments section for the particular quiz on YouTube that you’re viewing or just read and guess and not post comments on that particular Quiz YouTube thingy…. lol…. I’m good with TV/Music Trivia stuff somewhat…. I know whenever having played Trivial Pursuit game… I scored highest in the TV/Song categories ….lol
Yikes! I am so embarrassed everyone, no idea what this is but I will be interested to see how this works tomorrow. Sorry old school boy here…LOL…
Getting ready to turn 30 next year?

That’s hilarious. Reminds me of when I turned 30 and watched my brother in law tell his son that he can’t trust me any more.
Here’s a short one you might enjoy.

Or in a different direction, one hit wonders of the ’60s.

I don’t know what the plan is but I hope Mona and Lisa play along. I think it’s kind of funny that we are all answering them now.
I don’t know how to leave links?
Maybe I’ll ask someone to teach me someday.
Bobby S.
Bobby, just copy and paste the URL of a website into the text box of your message. It should link automatically.
Thanks David. It’s been many years since I did a copy and paste. I’ll give a try one day. Thanks for replying. Take Care,
Bobby S.
I hope the fact that there is a delay in streaming for some of us doesn’ t disturb a quiz
Maybe songtrivia 2 , its playable with multiplay?
This looks to be a blast. I’m a bit like Daryl so unless the tiny bit of creativity I have comes to the surface I will be watching as well. Great idea!!
Hi Mona and Lisa
Here are a few suggestions, that look like fun quizzes, in the 60s music theme.
Quiz Battle | Paul McCartney vs John Lennon
https://youtu.be/r4Pip-E_u2Y?si=BrjKZ5nucDkPzzwi
Voices of the 60s Music Quizzes
https://youtu.be/sjbZO1L81us?si=CcOJkOCgKIzmbgdm
Quiz | Can You Remember the 60s – Music, Movies & TV edition
https://youtu.be/XTDNrOxhYtI?si=hzRd0yK_0s_JbwQs
That looks like a nice quiz Jung
I think it’s a fun idea, butI thought these were tough. I did get a few.
Really nice !
I got 4 right, Dylan, Johnny Cash, Tom Jones and Jim Reeves (my country roots). A few I never heard of.
Two of the ones I got were also Cash and Reeves, but I used to listen to a lot of country music when I was young, and both have very distint voices.
1960s Music Quiz – Guess the song & artist from the first 10 seconds of the song.
https://youtu.be/_Y_RcfAyhvI?si=f9WBL_STaqC0YJad
Wow, ten whole seconds?
I can guess most songs from the 60’s in five seconds, haha. Just saying…
Bobby S.
Or if that’s too easy (for Bobby anyway lol) here’s a twist…guess the original songwriter.
I liked this format, but the ones with only the intros without the main artist voice were perhaps a bit too tough.
Pretty tough for me, I got none of these
Jung,
I’m surprised I got 3 wrong on the Paul vs. John Quiz. But the rest were easy, because I’ve read so many Beatle books! That was fun!
I’m reading this as I’m eating dinner at 11:30 pm. I worked all day teaching, then went home, & got ready to go play in our Band concert in Seattle. Gotta get some sleep for work tomorrow! Enjoy the Livestream tomorrow everyone!

Bud, I always thought it was George and Pete Best that were burning condoms but I’m probably wrong.
Here’s a “Would you rather” Christmas quiz. I would love to hear Mona and Lisa’s answers.https://youtu.be/o-WRONsAkRc?feature=shared
Name 10 groups that had brothers or sisters in them.
Let’s see – Chambers Brothers, Bee Gees, Jackson Five, Osnonds, Taveras, Pointer Sisters, Carpenters, McGuire Sisters, the Soul Survivors, Beach Boys, etc.
Sorry I’m not trying to show off. lol.
Bobby S.
Sorry I misspelled Osmonds
1.AC/DC 2.BTO 3.CCR, could be answers for the alphabet game too.
4.Heart 5.Gladys Knight and the Pips 6.The Black Crows 7.MonaLisa Twins 8.Lilliac 9. The Marshall Tucker Band 10. Allman Brothers.
A fun one! I chose to interpret the question as “had or have” brothers and sisters in them: MonaLisa Twins, Everly Brothers, Carpenters, Beach Boys, The Carter Sisters and Mother Maybelle, Andrews Sisters, McGuire Sisters, The Cranberries, The Osmonds, The Jackson 5
Carter family is a great one. I think Sara Carter was a sister in law to Mother Maybelle and you could also include Johnny Cash, his brother Tommy, Johnny’s daughter Roseanne, and Deanna and Carlene Carter who were grand daughters I think. What a clan, I bet the family reunions were fun, Lol
Luv the Carter family… June and her sisters , Mother Maybelle, Sara was sister in law to Maybelle, Carlene Carter ….John Carter, Rosanne Cash, etc…. love old school country music ….
Loretta Lynn and her sister Crystal Gayle, Loretta ‘s Twin Girls, and another of Loretta’s daughters and a sister of Loretta’s are singers, Hank William/Hank Jr/Hank all…. Reba McEntire/Susie McEntire/Pake McEntire …. Mandrell Sisters….Dottie/Shelley West.. David/Lefty Frizzell … and a whole bunch of others I know of just can’t recall all of them at once.. .lol
Yeah, I love a lot of the old country. Dolly had some brothers and sisters that sang too. I’ve seen clips of Jerry Lee Lewis singing with his wife who was also his 1st cousin and only 13 when they married.
Yeppers…lol….we share a knowhow and common regard for old school country music
Yep, I grew up with some older brothers and sisters that loved country music, all good music really. Everything from Hank Williams to the Beatles. Didn’t matter if it was country or rock as long as it was good.
And Jerry Lee was already married when he married his cousin. Don’t forget that part. lol.
Must have been love.
Lol, you’re right. Something tells me a lot of the country artists were actually related. Jerry Lee was related to Mickey Gilley and the TV evangelist Jimmy Swaggart.
Bellamy Brothers had a lot of great country-pop songs, I seen them live once and had forgot how many great songs they had.
Osmonds, Jackson 5, Partridge Family ( only fir TV show for Partridge Family ) , Von Trapps, The Brady Bunch kids ( again a TV show family ), Carpenters, Renee Simard and his sister, The Rankins, Irish Rovers, Family Brown…. that’s all who are coming into my mid off hand fir my answers….lol
I thought of the Partridge Family too, but I think they were only family in character though, Carpenters is a good one, not too many brother sister acts, Donny and Marie I guess.
The Partridge family was based on the Cowsills, who were an actual family group.
That’s right, I forgot about the Cowsills, I had a major crush on Suzi Cowsill, Lol.
No Doubt was brother/sister too.
And so was Sly and the Family Stone.
Bonus question: name a group that consisted of two pairs of sisters, one pair of which were twins.
That’s a tough one David. Another one I just thought of with sisters is Fanny, June and Jean Millington. I didn’t know who they were before that post in the Club a while back. I’ve listened to them quite a bit since. They were really good.
I’ll narrow it down a little: their peak years were 1964 – 1966.
I keep thinking of the Pointer sisters and the Supremes but they only had 3 members I think, I’m still thinking. I’m not going to use google.
You might remember them as a trio because one of them was absent from the group for several months while she was pregnant.
Haha, I can think of the names of a lot of girl groups like the Crystals and Shirelles, but I don’t know much about them.
Creedence Clearwater Revival, The Holmes Brothers, The Brothers Johnson, Delfeayo Marsalis Band, The Dorsey Brothers, the Andrews Sisters, the Statler Brothers, the Kinks, Dire Straits, AC/DC, Radiohead, No Doubt.
I guess that’s 12.
Yeah, 10-12 it doesn’t matter. I think we are just trying to get them all, Lol. I completely missed the Kinks. Eddie and Alex Van Halen put together a decent rock band for a while.
The Isley Brothers, Iggy and the Stooges. I keep thinking of more.
Yeah Chris me too. If you’ve never heard of the Collins kids, look them up on YouTube. Larry and Laurie Collins. They started out on Tex Ritter’s show. I believe Laurie was 16 and Larry was 14. They covered a lot of 50’s Rock n Roll hits. Larry played a twin neck guitar and he could really move. Amazing player.
Never heard of the Collins kids, but I just watched them, lol.
By my math, Lorrie’s actually 15 here, though she looks a lot older than Larry.

I didn’t grow up with country music. The name Tex Ritter sounds familiar, but I’ve never seen him. I’ll have to check him out too.
Chris, I don’t know much about Tex Ritter, only that he was a singing cowboy and John Ritter’s Dad. I remember a big hit he had called Hillbilly Heaven.
A to Z quiz. Name a band or artist that starts with each letter of the alphabet. You can also do it with cities, countries, automobiles, etc.
Here is a comprehensive (I think) list of one-word Beatles song titles, with the letters scrambled. Unscramble them! Everyone feel free to post your solutions AFTER the livestream!
1) osby
2) glir
3) pleh
4) inar
5) tawi
6) lauji
7) glifny
8) siryem
9) maxant
10) caseebu
11) gisgipe
12) dibhytar
13) caxthbom
14) cleehilm
15) drabblick
16) tonghisem
17) reyetysad
6,7,15&16 take some thought, David!
Didn’t get 6 second time thru, either, but I will….
🤔 Hmmm…Gee, David, is #6 incredibly obscure or am I gonna kick myself when I hear the correct unscramble? Maybe I’m suffering from a brain bubble…
It’s pretty obscure, Jeffery, but it’s real!
Thanks, Dave! I never doubted your rep for keepin’ it real! Thanks for a real head-scratcher!
Ooh! Got it! I kept getting hung up on a phonetic spelling for eulogy(ulaji) for some reason, even though I couldn’t place it as a Beatles song! Sometimes the obvious ones escape me!
Hmm. Those came to me right away but 16 took a moment. Having been a cryptographer in the Army, simple scrambled words are usually pretty easy.
Betcha never thought your training would ever pay off in everyday life, huh? 😉
Yeah, not so much that bit. But there was one time in an Escape Room where I had a playfair cipher solved before they found the key… 😀
I’m terrible about unscrambling words haha.
Bobby S.
No worries, Bobby, it’s a pretty useless talent in the grand scheme of life! For whatever reason I’ve always had a kinda savant-like ability for unscrambling words even though #6 kicked my butt for a while. I don’t consider that statement boastful because I’ve never studied or otherwise tried to cultivate that ability. It’s just there for whatever reason.
Oooohhhh.. Word Scrambles, Luv Wheel Of Fortune, Jeopardy….in the 1970s on Canadian TV there were some decent trivia type shows : Headline Hunters, Definition, Reach For The Top, Front Page Challenge and some others I know of just can’t recall names of shows but the ones I gave mentioned here, I enjoyed watching back in the day …..
You are not alone Robert. I like to do word scrambles, but I’m not very good at it. I enjoy watching Jeopardy on TV, but I almost never get the unscrambling done quickly enough. Since every possible imperfection must have a syndrome associated with it, I’ll call this SBS (Slow Brain Syndrome).
It took a while but I figured them out. I have a number 18.OLEIUVORNT
Surprised Dave missed that one. Didn’t come to mind for me, either.
It was the first one I thought of, I kept looking for it in David’s list.
Oops, you’re right; I overlooked that one!
Cancelled, and reposted.
Hello Ladies,
This should be fun. Looking forward to it. Perhaps not as much as you both are anticipating a visit from Krampus 👹👺
That should be entertaining.
🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 jk 😜 Have a great day Ladies
This will be very interesting and fun to see what people come up with! I have all the imagination of a shoe lace when it comes to things like that so I’ll just sit in the weeds and absorb. See yis tomorrow.
Sounds like fun! I’m sure you’ll get plenty of links sent in, so I think I’ll just sit back and reap the rewards of some other clubbers’ toils this time. I promise I won’t look at Dan’s ahead of time in case you use it! If you don’t, I can always click on it later! See you tomorrow!🙂🤔
I made a Beatles song quiz that is specifically MLT-themed.
Great work Dan
You really went through a lot of work to do this Dan – I flunked!
Good morning girls, have you thought about making the summer rain video?
Would love to see that, summer rain is one of my favourites
Ok ! Here´s the easy one for Beatles fans. who was the first outside musician to play on Beatles song (George Martin not counts), what was his instrument and on what song he played ?
Does Tony Sheridan count?
How about Billy Preston playing keyboard on Get Back?
Bobby S.
Maybe Eric Clapton playing guitar on While My Guitar Gently Weeps.
Perhaps not as easy for some of us (me). I looked it up so I won’t post answer, but it was a surprise to me.
The right answer is Johnnie Scott who plays flutes on “You´ve Got Hide Your Love Away” on “Help!” album.
What about Andy White playing drums on “Love Me Do”?
