What is Radical Radio Recall?

Radical Radio Recall is a free song-guessing game built on the shortest clip imaginable: one second of a classic '80s or '90s hit. Name the song in five guesses. After every miss you get another clue — the year, then the genre, then the artist's initials, and finally a squint-mode look at the album cover — until it clicks or you're out.

It's Heardle at radio-scan speed: the way you could name a song from the half-second between stations on the car dial.

How to play

1Tap play. You'll hear one second of the song — that's all you get for the first guess.
2Type the song title (autocomplete helps). Wrong? A new clue drops: year, genre, artist initials, then a very blurry cover.
3Five guesses total. Nail it early for the bragging rights.
4Share your score, then hear the whole song and see what people remember about it.
