Love the concept! Would love it even more if you could opt out of seeing the album art which can give huge hints.


Yeah, one opening screen included "#tamilsoundservice". :) (Tamil is one of the languages) I suppose I could try to ignore the video, but it was fun trying to use it for clues. "Oh they look like Bollywood dancers so I'll guess Hindi." This backfired on me when I tried guessing one based on the subtitles I saw, which I assumed were for karaoke, but the answer was completely wrong. I guess they were for translation, not karaoke.


Yeah, I think to do this right you need to block all visuals. I was able to guess nearly all of mine correctly just from visual clues.

Part of the reason I did so, however, was because the lyrics were often drowned out by the music. Hard to guess when you can barely hear what’s being sung.


Yup, I didn't even have listen to most of them, just looked at the text available.
