Contestants will sing their way to the top prize of S$500,000. Similar to the American version, three backups were available during the game; each backup can only be used once throughout the game on any level but the final song. They were Backup Singer (二人帮), Two Words (一送一) and Three Lines (三提示). Unlike the American version, contestants/teams who chose to attempt the final song (dubbed "Half-a-Million Song", or "$500,000 song" for the Chinese version) does not immediate raise the guaranteed cash value of $10,000 (in the American version, contestants/teams attempting the final song did raised the guaranteed cash from $25,000 to $100,000, which was the value for the sixth level), meaning the contestant would drop down to the $10,000 mark with an incorrect answer to the final song. This was first seen on the Chinese Version (see below).
