    @PlayBkPlay @nikomoon I had the terrible misfortune of hearing Beach Cowboy in a Target the other day. I couldn’t believe how awful it was, and I had to Shazam it to hear who was responsible for such a musical travesty. Seriously, this is why country music gets a bad rap. Complete garbage.

    Your other location 25 mins away? All the same figures except Shazam were also sitting on the shelf because it was already bought. I don't understand why you guys can't fix your inventory issues!!!

    @magmortality @MyNameIsWepeeI I have a really bad auditory processing problem and unironically just figured out today that a song I’ve been enjoying when I hear it come on is not, in fact, in English. I only figured it out because I finally thought to Shazam the song because I couldn’t remember enough words to Google it myself. I was like “wait what there’s zero English” So basically I do this to the highest degree with any song in any language :)

    Last week Idaho Governor Brad Little signed HB 542, Stop Harms from Addictive Social Media Act (SHASM - ADF calls is “Shazam!! 💥”) While the bill seems to have good intentions, it’s impossible to implement without universal age verification - handing MORE data of children to Big Tech - and constant behavioral monitoring of children online. This “solution” will undoubtedly make the problem worse. Additionally, it is the opposite of “parental empowerment”, forcing a government mandate on every family.

    @Billy_batshed Otherwise idk how high id rate it for Freddy, i think it was very fun to have kon interact with someone his age and theyre very fun together i wish i got to see them more often... but im very interested in what your reaction to the issue would be as a shazam fan

    @RaminNasibov @TheBookofG1nk0 I downloaded Merlin but it will absolutely not work unless you give location permissions which is not cool. I mean it listens through mic AND tracks location. Privacy issue. Someone needs to invent a competitor that makes it optional! Bird Shazam on demand w/ manual loc data

    @tiktok_us how about you make it so we can hold down somewhere on the video to find what song is playing. Use @Shazam. All I ask is one payment of 100k

  • NeilAumazter

    @roger_stev82377 I'm not the biggest comic reader, but one thing I've grown to learn is that if you're semi popular enough, you're bound to get a stupid broken feat. So I feel safe in assuming that Shazam has, during his run, done some bullshit for him to beat Thragg

  • MansplainStuff
    Optimal Popsicle (@MansplainStuff) reported

    @ihatemeen_ Not like this, no. He takes out Batman first, cuz that ****** has the green rock. Then Flash, cuz he can fetch more green rocks, but wont think about it til Bruce is down. His biggest problems then are Shazam and WW cuz they are magic based.

    I've spent about 2 hours trying to figure out this one song I heard in a McDonald's as children screamed. I had no service, couldn't Shazam. Little Bird by Annie Lennox. I genuinely cheered.

    I haven’t been to the theater in years now not since they stuck in that stupid useless scene in the second Shazam that didn’t fit about some kids saying oh yeah by the way, I’m gay that was it. I’m tired of people, shoving their **** down my face.

    I thought SBP was niched but then why ******** when I asked for some random comics (DNDM, Shazam, the SPECIFIC issue where Prime appeared) to the comic store guy he IMMEDIATELY clocked my *** that I wanted comics where Prime appeared and found the InfiniteCrisis hard cover for me

    📣 | UPDATE: After numerous templates and emails since 2025, it seems as though Bang Chan’s Spotify profile has now been fixed, with the fake songs removed. HOWEVER! Issues still persist across YouTube/YouTube Music, Apple Music, Shazam, Amazon Music, Tidal and Deezer. We will provide an updated template once we have finished reviewing each platform in depth.

    @juicyrosie23 Hulk and Thor have a chance. Thor has canonically beaten Shazam, and Hulk has canonically fought Superman while NOT angry, and Supes admitted it took everything he had to take Hulk down. Stark… a scant possibility if he figures out kryptonite. Cap? Sorry, NO.

    @ri_neb LandR is pretty decent in my opinion here is pros and cons: pro: They give you shazam, contentID for free Cover licenses are a one time payout If you stop paying your subscription they won't take down your songs, but take a 15% cur from your revenue Support team are humans only and no useless chat bot cons: Because they dont use AI in their systems they have a manual QC team that needs to look through your release and manually approve which takes some business days If you're making a remix they need documentation for rights of sample usage which takes even more days to process They dont support label plans and is generally for solo artists so if you were planning a "Various Artist" release it is usually meant for 1-3 artists per release Hope this helps

    @jay_therealdeal So? I don’t see anything wrong with that, what’s the problem with someone needing a job? Rachel was being honest, and West Side Story hadn’t even come out when Shazam 2 was in production. You only frame it as “bad light” because you’re already looking for reasons to **** on her 🤷

    @CambsCops Why hasn't Shazam Choudhary been arrested for this Anti-Semitic advert? Why aren't the Police nationwide investigating @TheGreenParty for Anti-Semitism? It's time this party was SHUT DOWN!😡

    @LucindaAntwix @rikcatberryy Shazam was terrible , Snow White was terrible, y2k was one of the worst ranking a24 films, she was in the worst rated hunger games film EVEN her animated film did badly and she didn’t get completely positive reviews for R+J Kit was the one getting the critic awards

  • GlamRockMarc
    Born To Boogie - Marc Bolan Archive (@GlamRockMarc) reported

    📆 April 19, 2002, “Jeepster” by T. Rex became the first song successfully identified by Shazam. This happened during a pre-launch test of the service, which at the time required users to call a phone number and receive the song title via text message. The company, now owned by Apple, has since developed technology capable of identifying billions of songs.

    @VesselorConnor @empatheticcain Cancelled after 15 issues. The book was a direct continuation of the curse of Shazam, which Johns just finishing being an executive producer for the movie. So it really seems like Johns was fully onboard with that version of the character to me.

    @dailystarzam Retire Billy, have the Shazam mantel be passed down every couple years, because Billy staying a child ruins any semblance of a timeline. Also Shazam is a cool name

    @Abimbola_Fenwa Let Down is very sad, lol. I like Creep, No Surprises and Plastic trees and maybe Karma police. You dig Foxy Shazam too?

  • CkarasuStream
    CkarasuStreams (@CkarasuStream) reported

    @Jaereku My issue isn't the dialogue or characters, but what is actually happening in the comic can cross the line into the absurd. And not the funny or good kind. Having a Shazam expy that just rapes people is so goofy it takes me out. That's just one example.

  • Lucid_BirdApp
    Lucid (@Lucid_BirdApp) reported

    @Exalted_Speed This is like how Shazam had a sequel 5 years after the original. Billy always had a ticking clock, especially when going with a teenage take. And the ages for all the YA actors were a little all over the place, which is a more of problem there than for the Avenegers
