The quizzes are in ENGLISH, but let’s not forget that the language was changed quite a lot from the Norman conquest of the Anglo-Saxons; half of English’s vocabulary is French, the grammatical structure is mostly Germanic, and the spelling was made up by drunk monks.

Rhinestones are associated with country music not rock and roll ! Wikipedia backs me up, but maybe you'll do best going with the Glen Campbell song Rhinestone Cowboy instead.

Gorillaz and MF DOOM both have super songs about them too.
