The Shins - Which Shins song was used in a McDonalds commercial?
 New Slang
 Turn a Square
 Girl Inform Me
 Young Pilgrims
The correct answer is 'New Slang'
"New Slang" is a quite impressive song, even by The Shins standards. The first lines, "Gold teeth and a curse for this town were all in my mouth/ Only, I don't know how they got out dear/ Turn me back to when I was the pet when me wet/I was happier then with no mind-set" showcase the Shins incredible and creative lyrics. "New Slang" is included on such popular TV shows as "The Sopranos" and "Buffy the Vampire Slayer."

Music Question 4
The Birth of the Blues - "Piedmont", "Chicago", "Delta" and "Texas" styles of the blues are among the most widely known. There are several other styles. Of the four options given, which is not deemed to be a blues style?
 West Coast
 Louisiana
 Memphis
 Minneapolis
The correct answer is 'Minneapolis'
Memphis, beyond being mentioned in the first written blues song, was, with Chicago, the place where blues men congregated in the early years to play the clubs and record in studios. B.B.King, Howlin' Wolf and Little Milton were among the famous artists who are identified with the Memphis sound. The West Coast stream primarily consisted of Texas blues artists who found their way west, stayed and created a slightly more mellow blues sound than found in Texas. T. Bone Walker is deemed to be the "father" of the West Coast style. Louisiana Blues is something of a mish mash of piano music(a la Professor Longhair), guitar, and traditional zydeco and cajun music... a very distinct blues style indeed. Minneapolis? There doubtlessly is a "blues" scene there but I think "the blues" would be more associated with the color of the resident's faces during -40 degree winter days!
