Who Changed The Song

Description

Use a song already familiar to both of you. One singer changes a single word to something obviously wrong, and the other catches it.

Cost: FreeBest time: Anytime

Play guide

  1. 1Choose a familiar short song and sing its first line together.
  2. 2One person sings it again with one silly substitution, such as "Twinkle, twinkle, little sock." The listener calls out the changed word.
  3. 3Swap the singer. Keep a point for each caught change and try a less obvious substitution when the game becomes easy.

Success signals

The listener detects a changed word in a known phrase.

If it's tricky

The original song is not shared: use the supplied phrase "The wheels on the bus go round and round" and change bus to bed.
