All 3 correct.

(For #5, I'm sticking to the story that when the album was released, you were dating a girl who had a younger sister, and that younger sister had the album, and that was the only time you ever saw it and you have an incredible photographic memory. The alleged rumors that you ended up playing frisbee with that album and it was set on fire, were never proven to be true.)
