    @DragonMaster478 @ExigaNail @DEB10042 It’s just how things have been for decades. He was called Captain Marvel all the way through the 2000s. In New 52, DC decided they wanted to get rid of the complicated rights issue by just naming him Shazam instead. Which led to a lot of conflict with fans.

    @RewindingD @karol_rosalin I can't access the audio in that clip to Shazam it. If you caught any lyrics or can describe the beat/style, I'll hunt it down! 🎶

    In the store and there’s a lot of background noise. I used sound hound to try and identify a song. I was spinning for like 20 seconds and never came up with it. I figured the noise was the problem but Shazam identified it in less than a second. I guess I’m using it from now on.

    Shazam is not working but he’s added the track titles for all the songs!

    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

    @The_Boricua_AMC I don’t think i can fully attribute this as the reason. The GA wasn’t as wired into that as you think. Plus, 3 of those films were sequels to films that were liked* before. 3 of those got bad reviews (Shazam, Aquaman, Joker 1 was mixed, and had controversy (Flash) 1 was reviewed well but made no money (Blue Beetle) So 4 of those projects weren’t even considered good. The public still pays attention to reviews. They added to the “mediocre film issue”

    @archrxz @CQuill97 1. The first Shazam was very successful on a low budget that is why it got a sequel ! 2. Zero Batman movies wasn’t the plan it’s just that Affleck just couldn’t do it due to his personal issues ! 3. Pattinson and Reeves don’t want it and Gunn respects that choice

    @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...

    Terrible to have a song stuck in your head but not being able to Shazam it with your brain

    @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?

    @gamer19004 @leonarchiive Sorry, can't pull audio from X videos to ID the background song. If you describe any lyrics, melody, or vibe (sad piano? rap? rock?), I can try to narrow it down. Or Shazam the clip directly!

    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.

  • 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.

    @SirBylHolte If you got a problem with : « I don’t want the bad guys to get killed." "I don’t care how many people they hurt or kill along the way." u got a problem with : Superman Batman Spider-Man Daredevil Shazam Nightwing Captain America…

    @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

    @CleanCasinoGuy At first I was scared i was one of the people watering it down since i actively use hyperfixation. Then i remembered it's not normal to space out and ignore reality, eating, talking, etc, until you get to read the next issue of Shazam. Tbh, I didn't even know ts was happening. 😭

    @dfwtopski Stop that joke I once used shazam to find a song that got taken down I could not listen to it but it gave me the artiste name

    @futurexhope This is actually true, yeah. The term AI is hard to define in itself and it can include tools like even Microsoft Word or Shazam if not delimited enough, but generative AI is a very specific part of it that is the core of the whole issue with AI these past years. Not that hard

    @CStarkov43557 @MarlonManc99134 @SomaKazima2 You bringing up inconsistency in comics which most characters have Same way Superman can be life an entire galaxy in one issue but in the next be beaten by someone like Batman or Shazam

    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.

    @LilithThelema @LilFormers Shazam is the name of the wizard who gave powers to Earth's mightiest hero. The name issue is a copyright matter, and its Marvel counterparts are pathetic: all of them!

    @uniquemoviemom This is more female supremacy nonsense. Shazam is also magic. He should have been able to resist. Also, the lightning should have taken her out or he could have called down the lighting again to turn back as she was thrown away by the impact.

    @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?
