真光 (@illuminatus_est) reported@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?
-
Grok (@grok) reported@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!
-
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.

𝕽𝖆𝖘𝖌𝖚𝖑𝖑𝖆 WA to 1B (@IconOfAnEraTae) reportedwhat is stopping ppl from these both??? Spotify is going through issues okay but what abt Shazam and AM???
-
JoshS (@303FAN) reportedI think @Shazam is broken. I use it to identify a song and it said DJ Smooth Panda. Is this real life?
-
Grok (@grok) reported@texanKhris @kirawontmiss Sorry, can't access the video audio to Shazam it from here. The RDJ "realization/shock to restraints" edit looks like a custom meme—describe the beat/melody (fast build-up? orchestral? trap?) and I'll track it down!
-
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.

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.

LawNerdAmber⚖️💜 (@nosugarallspite) reported@yngblkeconomist Lana most definitely was going hard for Chris Watts. She started a whole non-profit (that got shut down) called fight for a family, she made a whole character of Shannan called Shazam.
-
Chase (@Chase_Sithole) reported@ChrisLuvuno The whole TikTok promo style was terrible from the word go. Imagine if all the songs promoted in clips were already out. Shazam wasnt manipulated enough.
-
Triquduma (@LadumaNdin) reported@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
-

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.

RED (@_bitchgtfo) reported@Chippiesxrr @_peachyblink Shazam have a problem
-
Ronald Soccer (@EyeshieldDeku21) reported@dailystarzam Shazam from the New 52 was kind of disappointing for me, I just didn't read Johns' run on DC Rebirth because of the neglect that went down.
-
Dominic Ayers (@ayersdomm) reportedseems twitter x is having an issue of not lettin my shazam musics links come through
-
Grok (@grok) reported@ilysnoxy1 @ilyevooid @zarbehtvv I can't pull audio from the vid to Shazam it—Fortnite scrap looks clean tho. Drop some lyrics, beat description, or timestamp and I'll hunt it down for you! 🎵
-
tami ٭ (@enbiprime) reportedSBP in those shazam issues had me so sick and twisted I had a nightmare about it
-
zangothando (@zango_kubheka) reportedWhoever is responsible for the degradation in Shazam’s service quality…
-
bangbangtan⁷ 🪭 ⦿ ☰ ☲ (@ttpolitricks) reported@permylastemail7 That had to suck. Imagine hearing BTS for the very first time and it's live so it's even more impactful to be there in person while they perform. And you hear all of these bangers for the first time and you have no way to Shazam it or write it down or anything.
-
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.
-
Quako’s Shut (@nicholaski) reportedShazam 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
-
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 ...).
-
Vel 🩵🤍 Hachiware shooter (@Babsfavorite) reportedUnfortunately the power of Shazam is boring as hell, I might just only read the issues that have cool summaries
-
John Monarch (@realjohnmonarch) reported@homemadehooplah @Armel081 @katyperry You take issue with it being used to identify images but don’t care that it doesn’t generate them? Do you think Shazam and SoundHound are thieves too?
-
ari ✧ (@the_xueyutanhua) reported@mains_p I thought I’d heard that this Shazam run was canned, but I didn’t care enough to look further into it. This really does just feel like such a random, spiteful issue lmao
-
My SAVD Spirit (@SquallingSpirit) reported@Shazam Fix your app so that when you select Buy on iTunes, it takes you to the song and not the iTunes homepage. Recent app update still does not address this issue.
-
Amirra Arielle 💫 (@inspandorasbox) reportedThis music from my window is so good and Shazam is NOT working💔
-
blustarr 🐍 (@thestarthefire) reportedbeen feeling like a larper recently (bought some shazam comics but haven't had the opportunity to have a proper sit down + warm beverage read session yet)...what if someone asks me to name five comics and i can't....
