SongPop
SongPop is a fast-paced music trivia game where you compete against friends to name songs from short clips. Features millions of songs across every genre.
About This Game
SongPop is one of the longest-running and most popular music trivia games, with over 100 million players since its launch. The game plays short clips of songs and gives you multiple choice options to identify the title or artist. Speed matters — faster correct answers earn more points, creating a frantic race to recognize each track before your opponent.
The game's massive licensed music library is its strongest asset. With millions of songs spanning virtually every genre, decade, and language, SongPop can generate quizzes on incredibly specific themes. "80s Hair Metal," "K-Pop Girl Groups," "Italian Opera," "2000s One-Hit Wonders" — if it's a genre with a following, SongPop probably has a playlist for it.
SongPop supports both asynchronous and real-time multiplayer. Challenge a friend to a match that you can play at your own pace over hours or days, or hop into a live lobby for instant head-to-head competition. The game also features party modes designed for groups, where everyone in a room answers the same questions simultaneously. This versatility has made it a staple at trivia nights, parties, and casual hangouts for over a decade.

Tips & Strategy
- Play playlists you're passionate about to build confidence, then branch out to challenge yourself.
- Speed is crucial — even if you're unsure, a quick educated guess beats a slow correct one in point value.
- Use the practice mode to familiarize yourself with songs from genres outside your comfort zone.
- The first few notes are usually enough — train yourself to recognize song intros rather than waiting for lyrics.
