campfire song
Fireside group melody
A campfire song is a song suited to group singing around a fire, typically simple enough for everyone to join in.
Campfire songs often feature repetitive choruses, call-and-response patterns, or cumulative verses: We sang campfire songs until midnight.
The term evokes summer camps, scouting, and outdoor gatherings where musical skill matters less than participation.
