  • It’s doesn’t have to be a 2021 music quiz! – A bit of music trivia for new year’s doesn’t have to be about the year just passed. You can have general music questions from different decades, but if you do, remember to…
  • Pick a theme – A theme gives a sense of identity to a new year song quiz. Rather than sporadic questions on a wild range of topics, a theme like ’90s music’, ‘music from the movies’ or ‘the music of Elton John’ makes a quiz more memorable and more appealing to fans of that particular genre or artist.
