| Can you now do a song that you can figure out if you aren't an American? |

| I'm pretty sure this song is as close as it gets to being universally familiar. |

| If you don't like it make your own quiz. |

| Are there too many songs that are universally familiar? |

| Ok, if anyone finds a song that the majority of all Chinese and Americans know that wasn't created by a 21st-Century pop icon, feel free to mention it. I'd sure love to hear it! |

| I tried to enter "Batman smells" and "Joker got away". It wouldn't accept them. |

| Good stuff. I like these.
And lol @ DJameson. Good catch, those should definitely be accepted. |

| This song is a christmas song.. so it's pretty much only common during christmas. And what if you're not christian, and never grew up learning these songs? |
 | hiflew: | Aug 19th, 2010 at 00:24 GMT | | 9 points |
| @azziebon Then you will not do well on this quiz and you will make yourself happy because it gives you something to complain about. I am not a Christian and yet I know this song very well. |

| The most famous song universally known to the Chinese and Americans alike is "Kung Fu Fighting". |

| I like that you don't pick obscure songs that no one's ever heard of. Great quiz! |
 | moviegoer74: | Nov 9th, 2010 at 21:14 GMT | | 4 points |
| I'd suggest putting this in "Holiday" rather than "Music." And there are other verses to this song. |

| fun quiz! I would have like the title to say "can you name the lyrics to this common carol" or something to point me in the right direction, but otherwise I liked the quiz a lot. |

| The length of this song gave me a pretty good idea of which one it was, so I immediately but in "bells." Now I'm going to have some eggnog. |

| First guess was jingle. Bingo. |

| When your first guess is "dashing," this quiz becomes much easier. |

| After trying "Jingle" and "Bells," I thought I had this thing in the bag. But then I tried "Batman" and "Smells" and nothing happened. This must be a regional version I am unfamiliar with. |

| Can we try the one with the real (i.e. - Batman) lyrics, please? :) |
 | Tony_A: | Dec 4th, 2012 at 16:04 GMT | | 9 points |
| Way too much time. Maybe you should have included the 2nd verse as well. |

| LostInOz: But then we'll just get into a big argument concerning the final fate of the Joker, particularly whether he escaped or took up ballet classes. |

| Shoot, I didn't figure it out nearly as quickly as the rest of you. I don't know what finally clued me in but I didn't have either of the title words at that point. |

| I always thought it was "O'er the hills" rather than fields. |
 | nyiballs: | Dec 4th, 2012 at 17:25 GMT | | 3 points |
| Ditto above... I always knew it as "o'er the hills" Maybe let it accept hills as an alternative. |
