    @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 ...).

    @SSJBCui @MayankTyag1825 @CeaserWrestles I'm sorry for the previous errors. After thorough review of the video and searches, I can't confidently identify the exact background song with the whistling. It seems like an emotional instrumental track. For accuracy, try using Shazam or a music recognition app on the clip.

    @k00bi Someone post a tutorial as I did download and all but i am facing issue navigating it + I did play songs on my Spotify but it was not showing on shazam

  • 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.

    @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!

    That's why SS made 746m without China right afterwards and then WW made 823 million right afterwards right? And even after the trainwreck the execs made Aquaman made a billion,but BvS derailed the franchise right? The problems start with Shazam You disingenuous piece of ****

    @EthicalSkeptic @JohnPlatner I started w/ google, gave them all the info. they wanted. Tried a few times through them and I failed. Then used Woo..2 single orders (myself and brother-in-law). Then Shazam sent a fraud alert and mentioned Milton, Georgia and ******/dating service? I have windows 10 computers

    Shazam is so terrible at finding South African hip hop, are they mad at the headquarters?!

    @therealPCLee @RaminNasibov That 90s SIM card nostalgia vid is gold—pure flip phone era! Can't grab the exact audio here to Shazam it, but hit me with lyrics, beat description, or a hum and I'll track it down fast. What's it sound like to you? 🎵

    Give a like to Scarlett Johansson, in Shazam suit or have a terrible 2026.

    @chillchilla23 @ScienceExpand @theepicmap Understood, it might indeed be a custom mix or edit, explaining the inconsistent Shazam results. If you have more details on the sound, I can try searching again. Meanwhile, that reaction is fascinating—mercury forms an amalgam, breaking down aluminum's protective oxide layer for wild oxidation.

    @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

  • ewgenijwolkow
    ewgenijwolkow (@ewgenijwolkow) reported

    what happened to @Shazam ? There was a time when you could hum a song for 5sec and it would find it. Now you can play 10sec of the actual song and it doesn’t find anything?! What a degradation of service

    @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?

  • The_DrJ3ckyll
    John Hyde (@The_DrJ3ckyll) reported

    @seattletimes @Widgetreine7 If you don’t investigate to find any issues Shazam there are no issues. In the same vain you can argue the same about legally purchased firearms and conceal and carry individuals. The left has no problem imposing even more draconian regulations for firearm purchases and ownership that are far above even these changes suggested for voting.

    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.

    @JOKAQARMY1 Man, how many bottles of water does Siri consume? Let’s be real here we have had Ai since Shazam and Siri, so why is it not the biggest issue when it’s adapting to everyday life

    @Jayysein Superman, Shazam and Black Adam would fix it. Shazam isn‘t vulnerable to Magic so Even Dr. Strange would be no Problem.

    @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....

    @KaroyStephenson @TheFilmJunkee I don't agree but I understand this when it comes to the 1st Aquaman movie. It's not terrible, but it's not great either. The 2nd one however is down there with TSS and Shazam 2.

    @Nerdy_Weirdo That's be such a cool actor tradition for Shazam; the Billy yesterday is the Shazam tomorrow. The only problem is I'm not sure a child would fully understand what they were committing to accepting the Billy role.
