PART 3

NAME THAT TUNE…

You’ll hear the opening 5 seconds of 20 different tracks, back to back. You need to identify as many as you can. You’ll receive ½ point for correctly naming each song title PLUS another ½ point if you can also correctly name the artist.

So that’s another 20 points up for grabs in this final round!

Once I press PLAY, the music mashup will begin, with a quick sound check at the beginning to make sure you can hear the music okay. You’ll then see a countdown to begin the tracks. After each 5 second clip there will be a 10 second gap, during which time you can discuss your answer. So, you’ll have to listen carefully and write down your answers quickly!

I’ll take all your answers at the end of the round, after the last intro clip has played.

Good luck and here we go…!
