Music quiz online: guess the song with your friends

Looking for a music quiz where you have to guess the song as fast as you can, online and with nothing to install? Good news: playing a multiplayer music quiz with your friends has never been easier.

In this guide, we’ll show you how to start a game in just a few clicks on Blindtest.gg, whether you’re all in the same room or each at home, and how to play straight from your own Spotify or Deezer playlists.

What is an online music quiz?

A music quiz (also called a blind test) is a game where you listen to song snippets and have to guess the song — the title and/or the artist — as quickly as possible. The online version works exactly the same way, but right from your browser: everyone joins the game from their phone or computer, and you all play in real time.

No board game to buy, no playlist to set up on a speaker, no quizmaster to appoint: everything is automated. New to it? Check out our article What is a blind test? for the basics.

A free music quiz, no install required

On Blindtest.gg, you can play for free with nothing to download:

  • No app to install: everything runs in the browser, on mobile and desktop alike.
  • You can start a quick game without even creating an account.
  • Ready-made categories (Pop, Rap & RnB, Rock and more) are available instantly.
  • And if you want to save your scores and climb the leaderboard, just create a free account.

Play a multiplayer “guess the song” game

The real fun of a music quiz is the competition between friends. The multiplayer mode on Blindtest.gg lets several players buzz in at the same time, watch the score update live, and tease each other in the built-in chat.

  1. Head over to Blindtest.gg and click “Create a custom game”.
  2. Pick the playlist or category you want to play on.

  4. Start the game, and may the best one win 🎶

Play on your own Spotify and Deezer playlists

What makes an online music quiz truly unique is being able to play on your own songs. On Blindtest.gg, you can import any public Spotify or Deezer playlist by simply pasting its link. If you have a Deezer account, you can even connect to access all your playlists, your Flow and your favourite tracks.
