    Thank you for playing Name That Tune 1958 to 2018. For everyone watching, here are the clips our contestants listened to. You can join along if you want but won’t be part of the official scores.




    Will you be crowned the winner with knowledge of songs from all the decades or will we get an idea of your age from the era you knew best?

    How I Scored
    5 points for song title
    5 points for artist
    2 bonus points for knowing both
    1-4 points for having a nearly there answer (I will post answer given)
    1 sympathy vote for knowing a lyric or something identifying the song/artist (I will post answer given)

    Feel free to chat in thread as I post results. You may want to keep track of your score too just incase I made a mistake.

    I’ll be back in a bit.
