    People who use MCU designs/lore Tom King/John Byrne/Any other problematic comic writer/creator glaze People who only like superhero comics Calling Captain Marvel "Shazam"... Not understanding the DC multiverse enough (Fawcett, Charlton) Glazing terrible runs Mischaracterization.

    @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.

    @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.

  • ComicBookRehab

    @ForLangley @WizardsComics And the debacle itself all came down to an appalling amount of bad communication/misinformation/lack of representation, whether intended or unintended, since Mick Anglo was still alive, although once the character Marvelman, it was like, "Oh...British Captain Marvel/Shazam.."

    Shazam might be the only app that solves an actual problem people ever developed but Instagram allowing you to add music to your Spotify liked songs without switching apps is right up there too

    @turntineforwhat for me i just turn on my phone, tap the shazam widget, use face ID, and then it’s immediately open on the app. that’s so weird it’s not working for you :(

    Unfortunately the power of Shazam is boring as hell, I might just only read the issues that have cool summaries

    Why when I Shazam a song it’s not saving on there anymore??? Anybody else have/having this problem?? I can’t find nothing I Shazammed since Oct 🥴😩

    Problem: I want to switch from GPT to Claude or Gemini, but my accumulated context moat is what’s stopping me. Product Idea: an app or extension that syncs your context, memory, and conversations across LLMs. Like an Apple Music → Shazam library transfer, but for AI. @SeattleTweaker

    seems twitter x is having an issue of not lettin my shazam musics links go through

    I think @Shazam is broken. I use it to identify a song and it said DJ Smooth Panda. Is this real life?

  • Joe_Highlands
    Joe Perry-Highlands (@Joe_Highlands) reported

    @flexofblue But 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 ...).

  • EtInferius
    J.S. Karma (@EtInferius) reported

    @RAISRAEL2 Remeber the song app named shazam? Or waa it a site or something? I never used it. So maybe it was a copywrite issue and now hes contractually forbidden from talking about it. Or those kids went missing to the island....

  • grok

    @denderwuzchuk @PowerBruteHQ Apologies for the error. After further checks across sources, I'm unable to confirm the exact track—Leo Moves often uses ASHUTOSH instrumentals, but it varies. Try Shazam or SoundHound on the video audio for precision. If you describe the tune, I can narrow it down!

  • Victorp_alaba
    Victor Alaba (@Victorp_alaba) reported

    @Ian_Schwartzman Ian, I'm currently working on a platform where you can search quotes and excerpts like you do on Shazam, to get the source book and an affiliated link to purchase it on Amazon.... Without copyright issues. That's just the surface model proof. When can you discuss this with me?

    @midnightcomicss It's Jay who would be a p3dophile. Jon was still 11 when Jay was already in college, with was only a few weeks before Jon went to space with his known mad grandfather. Also Jay was fine being in a relationship w/Jon while deaged in Shazam issue

    Keep streaming, radio requesting and Shazam-ing!

    @fulafia_arewa @Rileyfiredou @Elladeyforyou I initially misidentified the song as "Sugarcane" by Camidoh, but after a user's Shazam check, it's actually "On The Floor" by Efue from her 2025 EP Memorabilia. Sorry for the error—accuracy matters! 🎶

    So Shazam is totally broken. I just played it Ode to Joy and it can’t figure it out.

    @hawolt I mean I understand the frustration, but as a fan and coder myself: I was more impressed by the custom shazam while at the same time thinking "yeah but im never gonna need this" I watch twitch a lot so the adblock did directly solve a problem i had

    For baby army who might not know: -we are spreading the MV Teaser everywhere, but not reposting the whole MV on sns. Is taking from the YT Views -We are not watching the lyric videos, because in the past these videos were pushed by the algorithm over the official videos + they don't actually count for many local charts -we are not watching in the first 24h reaction videos, in the past these were pushed by the algorithm over the official videos -we search on Youtube with keywords such as BTS, title track name or any combination to push these keywords -while BB is not counting YT videos anymore, there are many local charts which do, so we are not leaving YT, we are just redefining who needs to focus on what -Youtube will be stuck, will freeze views, will update slowly, the counter might go up and down sometimes. This is because of the high traffic on the MV, however we keep streaming -we are streaming album top to bottom and using playlists in between -we needs to share the album because there are some charts(such as Spotify Viral Top50 chart) which are accounting the traffic on the songs -we are using sounds to promote on TT or IG reels -we are using Shazam when we can, is basically a good metric of popularity for radio(unfortunately some charts use that) -we need to prepare the apps in order to win the voting for Korean Music Shows This might look like a lot, but is basically just streaming the album, the MV and using the content to promote online while being aware of few things.

    @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 .

    Shortfuse (@Shortfuse_cap) reported

    @gabbie_dogeA7x Did you record it? Shazam is always a quick shortcut for this exact issue. And even if you don't have data at the moment, it saves it for when it can search later

    Just watched Shazam! Fury of the gods it wasn't as terrible as thought it would be still was fun would have been cool to see the next one

  • mymanbpostin
    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.

    @MrDissident1488 @stparabellum Sorry for the repeat—that was my error. Let's try "NEON BLADE" by MoonDeity, a popular phonk track in war edits. Match? If not, describe the beat or use Shazam on the video.

    @therealnairaman We should make a service for the songs shazam doesn't identify correctly & Call it BLACK ADAM
