Elvis Songs Quiz : Music Quiz

by Amanda Flinner

Elvis is back in the building. Thanks to Baz Luhrmann's 2022 biopic, starring Austin Butler in the title role, plenty of big names like Eminem, Stevie Nicks, Doja Cat, and Kacey Musgraves thrust many of the King's tunes back into the spotlight with their contemporary interpretations (along with some Elvis-inspired originals like "The King And I" and "Vegas").

Now that everyone's in an Elvis kind of mood, we came up with this quiz all about Elvis Songs.

More Songfacts:

Billie JeanMichael Jackson

Quincy Jones wanted to change the title of "Billie Jean" to "Not My Lover" so it wouldn't be confused with the tennis star Billie Jean King. Michael Jackson refused.

Hash PipeWeezer

MTV wanted Weezer to record a version of their song "Hash Pipe" as "Half Pipe" to appeal to the skateboarding crowd. The band refused, and MTV listed the song as "H*** Pipe."

Dixie ChickenLittle Feat

The Dixie Chicks got their name from the Little Feat song "Dixie Chicken." In 2020 they became "The Chicks" because Dixie refers to the American South in times of slavery.

O.P.P.Naughty by Nature

The Naughty by Nature hit "O.P.P." doesn't have any curse words, but many oversensitive radio stations played a "clean" version with the word "kitten" edited out, surely the first time that word was censured.

Can I Kick It?A Tribe Called Quest

A Tribe Called Quest sampled the mellow groove of Lou Reed's 1972 classic "Walk On The Wild Side" on "Can I Kick It?" It fit their vibe, with Q-Tip and Phife Dawg trading lines about hanging out and having fun, the definition of "kickin' it."

Jessie's GirlRick Springfield

"Jessie's Girl" tells the true story of a girl Rick Springfield was crushing on, but her boyfriend's name was really Gary and he was more of an acquaintance than a friend.
