    @hiblueeily @txtstreambase Idk, it still doesn't work for me too. Maybe shazam is doing something fishy for txt or else having some technical problems

  • BroadcastJesse Jesse D. Thomas (@BroadcastJesse) reported

    Was thinking about something tonight, if you're going to get behind a team other than the Nuggets, who you can't watch and will let you down 100% of the time, root for the suns. Simply because of Al McCoy. And if you don't know who he is, do some research. #shazam

  • TinTinOfLagos_ Duchess👸🏾🍑 of Lagos ⚔️⚔️ (@TinTinOfLagos_) reported

    @Tegadeyforyou @mister_ade5 We know what shazam is and how it works... you ddnt have to break it down...

  • BlackOrkyd Orkyd Black (@BlackOrkyd) reported

    @DCComics in which titles/issues did #Shazam appear as #LordMarvel? I can find images but no info in order to find the stories. Please help! Thank you!

  • RadioBTOB BTOB Radio 📻 | 🌙💙 (@RadioBTOB) reported

    Some Melos are having troubles with Shazam not recognizing "Show and Prove", that’s why we wanted to know if it’s not working for everyone or just some people~

  • ElDiabloSays Luis Montero (@ElDiabloSays) reported

    @Vaughanilla_Ice My biggest issue is the clearly oversized muscle suit; when you have him in form fitting civilian clothes and he looks very (or at least comparatively) thin, and then in the suit he looks like the Shazam kids... Love his performance tho.

  • SarahZarrow Sarah Zarrow (@SarahZarrow) reported

    I would like Shazam but for the children’s book titles I can’t remember. Something where I could say “the one with the round house that burns down and maybe woodland creatures build a new one” and it would spit back the title.

  • reeja95 ree :): GAMBLER 🎲🃏 (@reeja95) reported

    Why is Shazam not working??

  • 131bestie L🆔 B.I WATERFALL (@131bestie) reported

    @Shazam is still not working for all waterfall album tracks except Re-Birth 😩

  • _0MNiGIRL_SARAH i, Omni Sarah ☕🔋💡 (@_0MNiGIRL_SARAH) reported

    Anyone else having a Problem with Shazam? Whenever I try to go to Apple music from my Shazam it just redirects me to the Chrome Browser. It's been going on for months now.

  • bluehourmoa_ot5 (@bluehourmoa_ot5) reported

    @5galaxiestxt 🤔🤔why is it not working!!? Just try again after clearing your Shazam data. Maybe network problem. Or is it any problem with speaker? Just check by recording your voice.. or it would be network problem😶

  • hiblueeily blue 🧊❄| 0°C (@hiblueeily) reported

  • watsongisthis What song is that? (@watsongisthis) reported

    @qojte I couldn't find anything, sorry :( Shazam servers may be down right now

  • GhostDo67322858 GhostDog (@GhostDo67322858) reported

    @FilmPalace @Itssan17 Shazam is a DC movie desperately trying to be marvel and does a terrible job at that. It's a bad marvel movie and even worse DC movie.

  • yeonjunootnoot maggie ❆ 0°C | looking for moa moots (@yeonjunootnoot) reported

    is anyone else's shazam not working?? i have 3 diff devices to shazam from (2 iphones 1 android) and none of them pick up on the songs i'm trying to shazam...they just say "we didn't catch that, try again" :(

  • 131strength immy 🆔️ illa illa DDAY (@131strength) reported

    IS SHAZAM BROKEN TODAY OR WHAT

  • Mobius_Drip Gayragorn King of the Bears (@Mobius_Drip) reported

    @saywhatagain Can I engage you to ask what the chill piano track is playing in the back of the Felix monologues in the Time For My Stories episodes? Like when he's giving his opening run-down of the show? I tried shazam and it failed me.

  • RodgersSpencer Spencer Rodgers (@RodgersSpencer) reported

    @mister_ade5 I don’t know if you wanna go down this road- someone once asked me why dnd board game conventions are held in the Midwest instead of the tropical regions. I told them it was because hundreds of big sweaty dudes who sleep in a van for 3 days attend. Shazam that. #shazamthatvan

  • SKComics2 S.K. (@SKComics2) reported

    @Da1qu1r1 Yeah. Both are bad. I don’t remember Shazam well to find more issues nor am I invested in doing so.

  • Sandile_K14 Mntungwa (@Sandile_K14) reported

    @Eagle_powerF35 @LindoGrace1 think outside the box and work it out, after spending billions, I promise you only a handful of people in society have a problem of trying to figure out what smell is associated with which perfume. Shazam uses maths (Fourier series) to work, much more simpler and is more useful

  • hkrubs samri is lovesick (@hkrubs) reported

    I want to cry, my Shazam is not working 😭

  • outofthezoo ali ⁵ | ⁰ˣ¹⁼ ❆ (@outofthezoo) reported

    shazam is not working for me grrr

  • AngelCaban19 Vash0125 (@AngelCaban19) reported

    @CaptMarvelology Well i kinda meant in recent times. The latest Shazam series lasted only 14 issues.

  • Fabio_JRogue ⚡️I don’t know still but i’m Shazam!⚡️ (@Fabio_JRogue) reported

    If you think BP is terrible just for it’s CGI, if you think Ragnarok is bad because it includes comedy compared to the previous Thor films, if you say Shazam is more of a Marvel movie than a DC movie because of the way the movie is compared to Zack Snyder’s movies...
