Gameplay
Two celebrity/contestant teams competed. Each team had 60 seconds to guess as many songs as they could, with an attempt to sing the first lines of those songs after each guess. Guessing the song title earned five points, with another point awarded per correct word in the first lines; if an incorrect word was sung, a horn (later used on The Hollywood Squares) was played and the team immediately stopped.
Three games were played in each episode in a tournament format, and the winner of the third game had his/her winnings doubled.
