Just a suggestion - when you name the band and song - play the chorus of the song

[@TheQuizChannel]

Thanks Caidan, very good idea 👍🏻 !!

[@maoribrotha53]

Basically just be more like the Leroys library videos.

[@BringTheKain]

I think it takes more skill to recognize a separate section of tie song. Seems fine as is

[@maoribrotha53]

you seem to be guessing, but then this timer melody plays, and everything goes astray in my head, better let the timer go along with the music that needs to be guessed

[@maurmi]

Yes that timer melody really interferes with your head when you're half way into guessing the song
