Can you identify songs by the first 5 seconds?

The list of songs is now included in the description! So comment me with how many you got, then look at the answers and see if you were right.

I've always been able to tell what song was playing within the first few seconds. So, I decided to take a few of the songs that I had on my computer, and shorten them down to the first 5 seconds of each to see who would be able to identify them. I put in random music related pictures; each song clip has a different picture. No song is used more than once. There are different genres and different time frames, for example one of the songs is from the 1950s while others are from the 80's, 90's, and 2000 or later. The ONLY thing these songs have in common is that I love them.

It's kind of like those games you play at parties where they bring a mixed cd of clips of different tv show theme songs and you have to guess them all. Just have fun with it and see how many you can guess. :P

NOTE: I recently did count the songs, and including the intro song and the song at the end for the credits, there are 57 songs in the video. It didnt take me long to make though, so I really didnt even think there were that many, haha wow. So yeah, I don't want any comments saying 'Who has time for this??' or etc. The thing that took me the longest was actually choosing which songs to put in the video.

You can feel free to message me for any of the songs, I'll send you the complete list if you'd like.

Send it to your friends, see how many they can get. There have to be other people out there who have a very...broad taste in music..come on it can't just be me. :P


I've been working on a second video for awhile, but my computer crashed and now it won't let me add any of my music back on to it. I'm not sure why. :'( So for now just have fun with this one!

Loved this video; it made my mind think, and realize, "Gawd, I listen to too much music!!" I knew the title of 19 of these, but probably recognized 22 of them. not bad for a 33yr old.

[AshleyLynn724]

@MeLikemKava I'm glad you liked it! Yeah definitely, not bad at all especially since it's only about five seconds per song.
