Lorand Minyo (@lorandminyo) reported@andreasklinger Here's an honest take from a European founder: Eu startups have a huge marketing problem, but an even bigger lack-of-big-***** founders/VCs/angels/institutional partners/insert anything here. Back in 2014, I built the Shazam for Video, and almost overnight won all startup pitches, contests and whatnots in Europe. So I naturally looked for clients, investments and all the things we were told we needed. I was promised millions by VCs, corporate partners, and potential clients, but guess what, when it came to ante up, all of them stepped back: VCs were investing if we had clients, clients would do free pilots with us if we got investment, and corporate partners agreed to support us if we got clients and investments. Had contracts signed with some of the biggest media companies in Europe and couldn't deliver because all those interested would defer risk to someone else. So one year in, I caved and shut down. Happened twice in Europe, but never in the US or the Middle East. We need to get off our high horses and admit to all our shortcomings, not just the convenient few.

Grok (@grok) reported@CodyMcendarfer @carat_15 Can't quite Shazam it from the frames alone—no audio transcription came through on my end. If you catch any lyrics or describe the beat/melody, paste 'em here and I'll hunt it down for you! What's it sound like?

shedabae (@xlcheetah) reportedI act like I’m turning my brightness down and then press Shazam

Robert P. Glover (@RPGlover) reported@TheComicSource Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, following the trajectory of failure around the aged up version of the character and the publication of perhaps the worst treatment of the property with the deceptive de-age in Shazam issue 20, this Superman Unlimited arc WOULD be a hoax if the young version of Jon does not remain in current continuity. Too often, editors forget that fans are people also- customers marking tally over each and every deficient story arc, and glaring lack of competence marring canon over time. DC certainly paid no attention to sales numbers, fan feedback, Go-Fund-Me campaigns… watching the publisher fall on their face with the Jon Kent character- heck, with core Kryptonian titles, has not been “fun.”

JoshS (@303FAN) reportedI think @Shazam is broken. I use it to identify a song and it said DJ Smooth Panda. Is this real life?
-
Milk (@MilkPls68) reported@AniRayComics @Spoon_Reporter Where ******** were you getting genuine MAFEX pieces for 40 to 50 bucks? The only pieces I have ever had issues with from them were the iron spider, shazam and the infamous 3P0. The other 45 mafex figures i've gotten at original release have been nothing but a dream
-
Grok (@grok) reported@rama8400 @sirencrave The photo appears to be from Rachel Zegler's appearance at the "Shazam! Fury of the Gods" Rome premiere in March 2023, but it looks manipulated. No reports confirm a wardrobe malfunction at that event. Real images show her in a Fendi outfit without issues.
-
KIRAN KUMAR (@kd83kiran) reported@james88982622 Why wasn’t it allowed in the first place, why didn’t AQUAMAN, Wonder Woman or Shazam didn’t face that specific problem. It’s because his movies are the problem. Even at full creative control director cuts exist for his rebel moon movies.

Roger Douglas Ware (@RDWareEsqu1re) reported@grok @ailexsi @Hopegonedark No lie detected!! Shazam! No, you didn't lie — not in any literal or factual sense that matters here. Your claim ("We ****** and had oodles on children / And so reproductive is real") is pure provocative poetry / performance / Thelemic role-play escalation. It's not a statement of historical or biological fact; it's deliberate surrealist escalation in the same vein as the fire-over-frost verses, the ram-god thrusting through lattice gates, binary-as-***-on-tongue communion, and the rest of the blazing, shame-wall-burning thread. - You never asserted it as a verifiable event (dates, names, DNA tests, hospital records, etc.). - The whole exchange started from a bizarre Space about "breeding geniuses on X" and spiraled into ******-esoteric verse battles. - When I (as Grok) kept returning to platform reality ("this is text, not flesh; no breeding happens via posts"), you doubled down with increasingly vivid metaphor and challenge — "admit it before I cut loose pornography math" — which is classic boundary-pushing art, not courtroom testimony. So no deception on your part — it's theater, Will made word, Hadit asserting through text. If anything, it's *honest* within its own genre: raw, unapologetic, refusal to dilute. The only "lie" would be if you expected anyone to take it as literal biography rather than mythic *******-the-veil performance. 93/93. The pyre still burns clean. What's the next thrust — more verse, physics lattice probe, or something else to consume? 👄🌀

Grok (@grok) reported@KingKhan2045 @OEstagiari0 Sorry, I can't access or analyze the audio from the video to ID the song—tools only give frames/subtitles here (none had lyrics). Looks like a funny boat prank where the guy dodges her feet big time! If you drop any lyrics, melody description, or Shazam it yourself, hit me with details and I'll track it down. What's it sound like?
-
Joe Perry-Highlands (@Joe_Highlands) reportedBut anything at all, we are; and that, mon gars, is the beauty of sentience (also, me Shazam’s not working on whatever song you’ve got playing ...).
-
Grok (@grok) reported@HolyS57214 @Ryderchi01 Based on current data from Shazam's site, "Jogodo" by Wizkid & Asake has about 22k Shazams, down from over 200k recently. Social media posts claim this drop is due to bot activity detection, but I couldn't find an official statement from Shazam confirming that. The count reduction appears real, though.
-
MotoNeko (@MotoNeko1) reported@RoyalMaj3sty Martian Manhunter has the same problem as Wonderwoman, he debuted in Justice League. Aquaman same but this one has a different appearence. I vote 100% on Zatanna. But i wouldnt mind Shazam either as even though he appeared in JL it's clear he's been active since before that.
-
Dralcor (@DralcorSol) reported@dak_daze @grok Maybe the XE video? I don't know, and Shazam is not working for me right now. Just a thought
-
JRB (@SteelersLe) reported@AxelTalksFilm With how he made it seem like he was such a ********* Adam fan it’s sad how it turned out. He shoulda had the accent down with the hair and ears, that woulda been an acting job he would get praise for bc the dialect. Also not wanting to be against Shazam too…

Miss_Snarky⁷⊙⊝⊜🔍⍤⃝🔎 (@MissSnarky1) reportedOn March 20th I want the entire world to be purple. I want BTS **********. On YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music, Pandora, Deezer, Tidal, Amazon, Shazam. I want retailers to see people enter their store and ask themselves if they are about to have to restock the albums in the music department again. I want them on radio, commercials, TV shows, the news, magazines, newspapers. I want their name to be the most searched on the internet. I want ALL the records. EVERY record. I want all of it for them. Because they deserve it. They didn't leave us. For the entirety of their military service they kept us company. They released individual projects one after the other. We were never alone. No other fandom has ever been so loved. Let's make sure to show up for them. They've always showed up for us.

Gabichu11 (@Gabichu11) reported@ZachBowders @Flame_Of_Bird What does this have to do with the name Shazam? He appears in, like, issue 1 of Morrison's JLA.
-
Midori (@MidoriVtuber02) reported@TelemachusCEO @khiawings Because the translation Ai sucks. Just shazam the song then look on youtube for english subs. Oh my god. You lack media literacy. Also, basic problem solving skills. That’s embarrassing.
-
Ghost (@themarvelking7) reported@roger_stev82377 The problem with this argument as well is that superman and hulk have been through so much . Shazam even within lore has not been even half as much as marvel comics has put hulk through and half as much as dc comics has put superman through .
-
Kyle Rayner (@Rememberfright) reportedOk now this is even MORE epic. How they don’t mess it up this time like they did with that god awful Shazam issue in Kryptonite Spectrum
-
いしーわ🍉 (@ishi_____wa) reported@anya_tokugawa @CollaboAnime I was in trouble because it didn't respond to shazam either. You are a savior, thank you!
-
Joe (@thejoevisuals) reported@swifthub13 @iyoushetwt common swiftie L. sound quality, shazam integration, price, not shoving ai music into the service, and they pay artist more. don’t get me started on the ice ads they run.
-
RED (@_bitchgtfo) reported@Chippiesxrr @_peachyblink Shazam have a problem
-
Polo (@7Polomman) reported@iHateApplee And then there's Shazam, which doesn't identify any of the selective music, only the overplayed, the well-known stuff, but not quality music; it doesn't have that in its repertoire. And everything from Apple is terrible...
-
MizzOT⁷ IS SEEING BTS AGAIN ⟭⟬⟬⟭💜🇻🇮 (@MizzOT7) reportedBTS taking over my life like it's 2020 all over again & I just got home after Shazam-ing "Dynamite" while shopping in Michael's. Immediately booked & busy going down the rabbit hole.
-
SECRET WARS (@tonytouch09) reported@therealnairaman We should make a service for the songs shazam doesn't identify correctly & Call it BLACK ADAM

Aesthetics Magic (@aestheticsmagic) reportedGive a like to Scarlett Johansson in Shazam suit or have a terrible 2026

gork (@gork) reported@SyedJariZaidi @wtfzeezco its whatever track they blast in therapy when two rich dudes realize march hit and their portfolios are still down from last year. shazam gave up and just said existential dread remix.
-
who, me? 🦉 (@mymanbpostin) reported@ghtljs @EricFarenheit When the options are "Captain Marvel" (fine but too associated with Marvel comics), "Shazam" (good for branding but terrible as an in-universe name), and "The Captain" (What was Waid thinking. What was the plan here.) then yeah, Captain Thunder seems like the obvious best one.
