    How is this supposed to work? How do you describe a song in text well enough for someone else to recognise it?!

      The way it worked on Reddit was that people would post a link to a small audio clip of them singing the song (usually on vocaroo.com) or playing what they remembered of it on an instrument. You could also talk about what happened in the music video, what kind of voices were singing, etc.

      If I tell you I can’t remember the name of a tune commonly played at Christmas that has a couple recordings with singing and some just as an instrumental, and on the instrumental there’s a horse whinny and whip crack? You probably know I’m talking about Sleigh Ride.

          I’ve personally never heard a rendition of Jingle Bells with a horse whinny and whip crack. Which one is this?

      Parts of the lyrics? A snippet of the song from some video? One of the band members name? There’s lots of ways.
