How fast can you name that song? One Second Song plays you a short clip from a real song. If you know it, type a few letters and tap the match. If you need more, tap Hear More and the clip gets longer. Wrong guesses are free, so guess as often as you want! The less of the song you hear, the better your score. Each song also has three hints. They give real trivia about the song without naming the title or the artist. PLAY ALONE OR PASS THE PHONE Practice on your own, or take turns with friends. The scorecard at the end shows how much of each song each player needed. FRESH PACKS EVERY WEEK Choose today's hits, decades from the 60s to the 2020s, rock, hip-hop, and more!
