Song previews

Hear It Before You Request It

Your guests tap any song and hear an official 30-second clip on their own phone, then request it in the same tap. Nobody has to request a song and hope it is the right one.

  • Thirty seconds, usually the chorus
  • Plays on their phone, never over your speakers
  • Included in Core and Complete

Try before you queue

A minute on how previews work, and why they turn browsing into something people enjoy.

How it works

From curious to queued in three taps

It works from your venue's QR code in any phone's browser, or the free eJukebox Request app. Nothing to download.

1

Find a song

Scan the venue's QR code, then search by artist or title, browse what is trending across the country, or tap Help me pick and describe what you are after.

2

Tap to preview

Tap any track for an official 30-second clip, usually the chorus. It plays on the guest's own phone, so the room never hears it.

3

Request it

Like what you hear? Request it in the same tap. The venue's rules decide what can be requested and how often.

The hard part of requesting a song was never the requesting. It was knowing what to ask for. AI Song Search takes that away: a guest types what they actually mean, in plain English, and a list of real tracks from your library comes straight back, each one ready to preview and request.

It shines at birthdays and functions where someone wants something for Mum, at theme nights and trivia, and at any table arguing about a song none of them can name. It means the people who would never normally request a song finally do. On the request page, it is the Help me pick button.

Why venues like it

Better requests, and more of them

No duds

The right song, first time

No guessing from a title, and no requesting the wrong version. Fewer regrets in the queue means a better run of music for the whole room.

More requests

Sampling turns into requesting

Previews turn browsing into a game people enjoy playing, and the more they sample, the more they request.

Still your room

Your rules still apply

Previews change nothing about what can be requested. You choose the library, set the limits per person, and hold or remove anything from the Admin app.

Part of song requests, at no extra cost. Previews, AI Song Search and Playing Across the Country all come with Core and Complete. Add voice dedications, Spotify playlists or a request touchscreen when you want more.

Questions

What venues ask about song previews

Does the preview play over the venue's speakers?

No. The preview plays on the guest's own phone, so they can sample as many songs as they like without the room hearing a thing. Only the song they request goes into the queue.

How long is a song preview?

Thirty seconds, and usually the chorus - the part of the song people actually recognise.

Do guests need to download an app?

No. Previews work on your venue's request page in any phone's browser, opened from the QR code. Guests who prefer an app can use the free eJukebox Request app.

Which songs can be previewed?

Every song in the search results, in Help me pick suggestions and in the Playing Across the Country trending grid has a preview.

What is AI Song Search?

A search that understands plain English. Guests type a mood, an era, a film or an occasion - "80s Australian pub rock", "something for a 50th", "songs from that Robin Williams movie" - and get real tracks from your library to preview and request. On the request page it is the Help me pick button.

Do previews change what can be requested?

No. You still choose whether requests come from the whole library or only the current channel, and how many songs each person can request every hour, and you can hold or remove any request from the eJukebox Admin app.

Does it cost extra?

No. Song previews come with Core and Complete, along with song requests, AI Song Search and Playing Across the Country. Solo is background music only, with no requests. See plans & pricing.

Why would a venue care about previews?

Fewer wrong songs in the queue, and more requests. Nobody has to request a song and hope it is the right one, and the more people sample, the more they request.
