Think you know music? Not just the charts you grew up with, but the songs that filled dance floors in Rio, Seoul, Lisbon and Vienna? timeline.music is a free music quiz for people who take music seriously, built on seven decades of hits from more than 50 countries. Most quizzes stop at the Hot 100. This one goes everywhere: fado and funaná, ethio-jazz and K-pop, chanson, samba, schlager, merengue. Every question comes from a hand-curated timeline of a real country's music, so there is always something you know cold and something you have never heard. TWO WAYS TO PLAY Classic: ten questions. Hear a 30-second clip and name the artist before the clock runs out, match artists to the country and scene they came from, place genres in their peak decade, spot the one who does not belong. Timeline: hear a clip, put it in the right spot on your timeline. Ten songs, years hidden until you commit. PLAY TO WIN • Speed points: the faster you answer, the more you score • Combos: get 3, 5 or 8 in a row to multiply your points, up to 2x • Daily Challenge: the same 10 questions for everyone, once a day, with 1.5x XP • Day streaks: every 7 days in a row earns a streak freeze that covers one missed day • Climb 10 ranks, from Bedroom Demos and Busker to Headliner and Hall of Fame • Unlock 22 badges, like Golden Ear, Name That Tune and Comeback Kid • Collect a passport stamp for every country you have played • Share your score, or send a friend a link to beat it on the exact same questions Pick Easy, Medium or Hard and a decade from the 1960s to the 2020s, or take on all eras and all countries at once. No account, no sign-up, no ads. Your scores, ranks and badges stay on your device, and a cached question bank keeps the quiz playable when you lose signal. THE MUSIC BEHIND THE QUESTIONS Lost a point to a song you did not know? Go find out. Every question links back to a curated timeline: explore a country's music decade by decade, follow a genre from its first recordings to its peak, and see how scenes overlap and influence each other. • Country timelines with genre lanes and landmark artists • Artist profiles with active eras, genres and defining tracks • Genre pages tracing origins, peak decades and descendants • An interactive world map: tap a country, hear its story • This Week in Music History, Journeys and Stories • Save songs to your collection, listen in full, and export a list as a private YouTube playlist BUILT FOR LISTENING Audio previews are 30-second clips provided by Apple. timeline.music does not host, store or distribute music; clips stream directly from Apple and serve only to identify a track. FREE AND PREMIUM The quiz, the map, stories, moments and journeys are free, and every country opens with a free hitlist preview and a few free deep-dives a month. Premium removes the monthly limit on country deep-dives and artist profiles. Available in English and German.
