The game's question
Read the story aloud, one clue at a time, and stop as soon as the name comes back to you.
Early in 1964, one song seemed to play on every radio—in the kitchen, in the car, on the transistor under the pillow. On February 1, “I Want to Hold Your Hand” reached No. 1 in the country, the group’s first in America. A band from across the ocean had arrived, and by year’s end they had six No. 1 hits. Circle their name together.
- The Beach Boys
- The Beatles
- The Four Seasons
Need a hint?
Hum the tune of “I Want to Hold Your Hand” together—the name often comes back with the melody. A small nudge: the group’s name sounds just like a little insect with a hard shell.
See the answer
Answer: The Beatles—their first No. 1 in America, on February 1, 1964.
Why this game : A song that played everywhere opens up a whole year—the radio, the first records, who danced to what. The stories follow on their own.
