Plot Synopsis

Hosted by Niecy Nash, this revival of DON'T FORGET THE LYRICS! challenges contestants' musical memory, as they get one song closer to winning $1 million -- if they don't forget the lyrics. Contestants choose songs from different genres, decades and musical artists. Then they take center stage to sing alongside the studio band as the lyrics are projected on screen -- but when the music stops and the words disappear, will the contestants belt out the correct missing lyrics, or freeze under pressure? If they sing nine songs correctly, they are presented with a No. 1 hit and sing the final missing lyrics for the top prize of $1 million. It's that simple: 10 songs, some missing lyrics, $1 million.
