What is Listen Game?

Listen Game is a game that lets you tell others what you think about music. It also lets you hear what other people think about music.  Music is a subjective form of art. We all have our own unique experience when listening to a song. Even though you might think that “Hangin’ Tough” by New Kids on the Block is “explosive and revolutionary,” your friend may think it’s “cheesy and annoying.”  
Play Listen Game and see if the world agrees with you!

Why should you play Listen Game?

It’s fun!  Also, while you play Listen Game, they listen to what you say about music. They use your opinions to build a musical search engine. Just a like an Internet search engine that finds web pages, their search engine uses your musical taste to help you find music that you want to listen to.

How do you play Listen Game?

1) You and players from around the world simultaneously listen to short music clips.
Each Listen Game consists of seven clips.

2) While you listen, they list 6 relevant words.
 
3) Pick one word that best describes the music and another word that also describes the music.

4) Score points by choosing words that other Listeners agree upon. It’s your opinion - there are no right or wrong answers.  The site also records players with the highest scores. Shenry is killing them!
