rdf:langString Words and Music is a 1970-1971 American television game show. It was one of only two game shows to debut during 1970 (the other show was Can You Top This. The show was hosted by Wink Martindale, who also hosted the aforementioned Can You Top This. The game was played in four rounds. At the start of the show, three contestants faced a game board consisting of 16 squares. Behind each square was a clue associated with a word to be sung in a song by the show's four regular singers: Peggy Connelly, Katie Gran, Bob Mario, and Don Minter. For example, the clue is "right between the eyes" and the word in the song the players are listening for is "nose". The first player to buzz in with the correct word after it was sung won cash and the opportunity to select the next clue. Four songs were played in each round. The player with the highest cash score at the end of the day won the game and the right to compete on the next show. There was no bonus game. Contestants who won three days in a row received a brand new car.
