Reba McEntire Quiz: Guess the Song & Test Your Trivia

A Reba McEntire quiz rewards knowing the plots as much as the hooks, because her catalog runs on story-songs. Guess the Reba McEntire song from 'Fancy', 'Whoever's in New England' and 'Is There Life Out There' to the courtroom twist of 'The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia', then test your trivia on the remakes she made her own, like Bobbie Gentry's 'Fancy', and the Grammy-winning wife-and-mistress duet 'Does He Love You'. The twist endings are what separate superfans from the rest here.

'The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia' is a murder ballad with a twist ending, and Reba's 1991 version was originally a 1972 hit for Vicki Lawrence.
'Does He Love You', her 1993 duet with Linda Davis, plays out as a conversation between a wife and the other woman and won a Grammy.

The story everyone knows

Start here for the easy points. 'Whoever's in New England' (her 1986 breakthrough and first Grammy), 'Is There Life Out There' and 'Fancy' are the story-songs even casual listeners can place from the plot alone: a straying husband, a young mother going back to school, a girl sent out to escape poverty. If you grew up on country radio, this tier is where you rack up your score.

The twist endings that trip players up

Reba loves a sting in the tale, and that is where the quiz gets interesting. 'The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia' hides a courtroom reveal most first-time listeners miss, 'Does He Love You' plays out as a wife and the other woman trading verses, and 'Somebody Should Leave' lands on a marriage nobody will walk away from. Know the ending and the title comes fast.

The songs she borrowed and made her own

Here is the trap that catches confident players: several Reba classics started as someone else's hit. 'Fancy' was Bobbie Gentry's in 1969, 'The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia' was Vicki Lawrence's 1972 chart-topper, and 'Cathy's Clown' was an Everly Brothers original before Reba took it to number one in 1989. Assuming she wrote them is the easiest way to miss a question.

The duets and late hits where superfans pull ahead

The top tier lives past the radio staples. Superfans place the 1991 album 'For My Broken Heart', the Vince Gill duet 'The Heart Won't Lie', her Kelly Clarkson remake of 'Because of You' (2007), and the long-running number one 'Consider Me Gone' (2009). These are the deep cuts that separate a good Reba score from a perfect one.

Why is the Reba McEntire quiz tricky?
