Test your knowledge of Avicii's biggest hits, deep cuts and iconic moments.
'Wake Me Up', 'Levels' and 'Hey Brother' are the ones that give themselves away on the first drop.
The Etta James sample under 'Levels', the bluegrass voice on 'Hey Brother', and the acoustic guitar that divided festivals.
The anthems are easy points; the guest vocalists and deep cuts are where the lead tightens.
'Wake Me Up', 'Levels', 'Hey Brother' and 'The Nights' are the tracks even casual listeners can name from the first bar. Anything that plays like a stadium singalong is almost certainly one of these, and they hand out the quickest points.
This is the sound that made him. 'Wake Me Up' set Mike Einziger's acoustic guitar and Aloe Blacc's soul vocal over a house beat, and 'Hey Brother' leaned on bluegrass. Purists booed at first, then the whole festival circuit followed.
His hits hand the hook to guest singers, so the guess often comes down to the voice. Aloe Blacc fronts 'Wake Me Up', Dan Tyminski sings 'Hey Brother', and Audra Mae carries 'Addicted to You'. Recognise who is singing and the title usually falls into place.
His 2013 debut 'True' turned the euphoric build into a formula, from 'Wake Me Up' to 'You Make Me'. Later singles like 'Waiting for Love', co-produced with Martin Garrix, kept it going before his death in 2018.
Songtrivia plays you part of an Avicii track to name, then asks trivia about the festival anthems, the folk-house fusion, and the voices on the hooks.
Anthems like 'Wake Me Up', 'Levels', 'Hey Brother' and 'The Nights', together with quieter picks such as 'Addicted to You', 'You Make Me' and 'Fade Into Darkness'.
His biggest tracks hand the hook to a guest singer, so telling 'Wake Me Up' from 'Hey Brother' can come down to whether you know the voice, not the drop.
'Levels' (2011) is built on Etta James's 'Something's Got a Hold on Me', one of the most recognisable samples in an Avicii quiz.
Tim Bergling, a Swedish DJ and producer from Stockholm who broke through with 'Levels' in 2011 and died in 2018 at the age of 28.
