Usher Quiz: Guess the Song & Test Your Trivia

An Usher quiz has one center of gravity: Confessions, the 2004 album that spun four number ones and outsold everything else he made. Guess the Usher song from 'Yeah!' and 'Burn' to 'My Boo' with Alicia Keys, then test your trivia on everything that album isn't: the ballads 'Nice & Slow', 'U Remind Me' and 'U Got It Bad' that came first, the club reinventions 'Love in This Club' and 'OMG' that came later, and the falsetto comeback 'Climax'. See how well you really know Usher past one 2004 record.

The Confessions four (where casual fans score)

The album everyone owned in 2004 hands out the easy points: 'Yeah!' with Lil Jon and Ludacris, 'Burn', 'Confessions Part II' and 'My Boo' with Alicia Keys. Four number ones from one record, and most players name them on the first note, so they open any Usher quiz.

The bedroom slow jams (still easy points)

Before the club hits, Usher was a balladeer. The spoken-intro 'Nice & Slow' and the number-one ballads 'U Remind Me' and 'U Got It Bad' all trade on the same low, unhurried delivery. Casual fans still catch these, most of them recorded before Confessions.

The club reinventions (where it gets tricky)

This is where the quiz opens up. 'Love in This Club' with Young Jeezy, the will.i.am-produced 'OMG' and the Pitbull team-up 'DJ Got Us Fallin' in Love' show Usher chasing each new dance sound, and they land far from the Confessions ballads that made him famous.

Beyond Confessions (where superfans pull ahead)

What sorts the diehards sits outside the juggernaut: the falsetto Grammy-winner 'Climax', the slow-build 'Good Kisser', the Confessions-era cut 'Caught Up' and the early 'You Make Me Wanna...'. Land these from a short clip and you have gone well past the one album most players stop at.

Perguntas frequentes

Which Usher songs are in the quiz?

The Confessions singles come up first, 'Yeah!', 'Burn', 'Confessions Part II' and 'My Boo', plus the slow jams 'U Got It Bad' and 'Nice & Slow' and later club hits 'Love in This Club' and 'OMG'.

How hard is the Usher quiz?

Confessions makes the start easy, since so many of his best-known songs come from that one 2004 album. It gets tricky once the quiz moves to his pre-Confessions ballads and his later club reinventions.

Is the Usher quiz just Confessions songs?

No. Confessions is the core, but the quiz reaches back to 'Nice & Slow' and 'U Remind Me' and forward to 'OMG', 'Climax' and 'Good Kisser', so knowing one album only gets you halfway.

What is Usher's real name and where is he from?

His full name is Usher Raymond IV. He was born on October 14, 1978, in Dallas, Texas, grew up in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and came up as an artist in Atlanta, Georgia.

Is the Usher quiz free?
