Premise[]
Lewis sang the the clues to song titles sent in by listeners. The titles could tell a story or ask a question. Gentry helped with the duets. Contestants split a tiny jackpot of $4 with a serviceman. Once per broadcast was the "Daily Double Duet" where a correct answer paid double the prize ($8).
Trivia[]
Lewis and Gentry previously hosted a similar show called The Singing Bee (no relation to the Joey Fatone-hosted game show of the same name), which aired on CBS from July 5, 1940 to April 5, 1941 on Saturday mornings, and on the Blue Network from November 5, 1942 to November 19, 1943 at various times.
