Name That Tune - Definition and Overview

Name That Tune was a game show that put two contestants against each other to test their knowledge of songs. It had several versions in the United States, with the longest running version airing in syndication from 1974 to 1981 with host Tom Kennedy.

A British version of the show started on ITV in 1983 with Tom O'Connor as the host. Lionel Blair took over O'Connor later on until the series was dropped from the ITV schedules. Maggie Moon sang the songs that contestants had to guess. In 1998 the series was revived on Five with Jools Holland as the host.

There were even versions in Australia, Canada, Italy and Russia.
