Four to 40 players shout out answers and "Whisper Rounds," encouraging teams to huddle secretly to discuss strategies before giving a combined answer relating to music or television. The gam is played by inserting a Game Video Disc (GVD) into a DVD player, hitting play on the remote following the direction of an on-screen host. Shout About Music prompts players to identify music titles from portions of songs, fill in missing lyrics as well as arrange music-related events and topics in specific order.
