How the Grammy Record of the Year timeline game works

The cards are Grammy Record of the Year winners, song title on top and the artist underneath, and you sort them by the year of the ceremony where each won. You begin with one record on the timeline, its year showing. Read each new card and pick a gap among the winners already down. A good pick shows the year; a bad one still drops the record into its real place and costs a life, with three to lose in all. Get ten right in a row and one lost life is returned, never past three.

The award spans easy-listening standards, singer-songwriter hits, soft rock, stadium pop, R&B and the streaming age's chart toppers. The ceremony comes after a record's moment, so its award year often runs later than your memory of the hit. Several artists won more than once, so knowing their run of singles pays off. Records that sound timeless, especially the big ballads, are the easiest to drop into the wrong era.
