@PREGO1966 Another possible reason is that perhaps they weren't too concerned about the word switch in this part of the game, as long as they got the important part of the title correct. If he flubbed the "Teach the World To Sing" part, then he would've probably been DQed (which I'm guessing the producers only needed that part, though they displayed that whole thing on the screen). Unlike the 100k tune, the other parts were a bit more lenient in that sense.
He should have been penalized on "I'd Like To Teach The World To Sing". Someone once got penalized for naming "It's A Grand Night For Singing" as "It's A Grand TIME For Singing". My guess is Tom didn't catch it, nor did the videotape operator.
@kenman923 - Would've been good, except the then-standard process of "bicycling" syndicated shows might confuse some viewers in markets where such an ep wasn't aired until a month or 2soner/later.
He actually misnamed one of them. The tune is "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing," but he said "I'd Love...." In Jeopardy!, they would have penalized him for that.
We had a British version of Name That Tune in the UK as well. It was first hosted by Tom O Connor then Lionel Blair but your format seems the same as the UK one. This brings back memories of it.
