singles

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'game' is the definition.
(singles is a kind of game)

'vocal music for the french' is the wordplay.
'vocal music' becomes 'sing' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'for' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'the french' becomes 'les' (plural form of 'the' in French).
'sing'+'les'='SINGLES'

'to provide' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
