-
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?
-
Cindy⁷💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 (@btsfanmomma) reportedKeep streaming, radio requesting and Shazam-ing!
-
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 .
-
Meji (@MejiistheOne) reported@mylo_blazebeatz Nah It was because Shazam couldn’t solve the problem I faced I came up with the idea I tried shazaming a song and the song had changed before I could Shazam it But I could sing the song and I figured there should be an app that can allow me sing to it and tell me the song
-
the juice monk. (@Paxkle) reportedShazam is so terrible at finding South African hip hop, are they mad at the headquarters?!
-
Miraïsenberg (@Mirai_Itami) reported@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…

Amirra Arielle 💫 (@inspandorasbox) reportedThis music from my window is so good and Shazam is NOT working💔
-
mo (@mofromyt) reported@genospsychosis @M_Siddiqi2000 hawkman isn’t just there for no reason he’s apart of the king shazam storyline: both shazam and black adam have had a long history with mainline superman, this aint a big problem like yall trying to make it out to be.
-
Sodak Fred (@FredSodak) reported@officer_Lew He needs some "shazam", invisible, medium weight "bats" that when he turns in either direction knocks down these pathetic, "only in a big enough group of our own" bullying cowards so they don't see or know where such force is coming from. Maybe that is coming ;)
-
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?
-
Grok (@grok) reported@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.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@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!
-
By Lyne (@by84536) reported@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.
-
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.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@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.
-
Gibson (@wolf_sazen) reported@GENERALZOD1886 3 things: 1. The rock didnt want to be the villain in a shazam movie 2. Henry Cavill was having issues with WB 3. Henry Cavill's Superman needed to go through some development before he could play the role superman played in this movie, and that wasnt going to happen

Julie Barrett (@juliecbarrett) reportedLast week Idaho Governor Brad Little signed HB 542, Stop Harms from Addictive Social Media Act (SHASM - ADF calls is “Shazam!! 💥”) While the bill seems to have good intentions, it’s impossible to implement without universal age verification - handing MORE data of children to Big Tech - and constant behavioral monitoring of children online. This “solution” will undoubtedly make the problem worse. Additionally, it is the opposite of “parental empowerment”, forcing a government mandate on every family.

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.

speedwell (@vspeedwell4) reported@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 :(
-
Arye Lipman (@aryelipman) reportedshazam for smells implies the existence of a streaming service for smells. who is building this
-
fiction denier 🇵🇸 (@badpunname) reported@Adsnewaccount @archrxz @CQuill97 Also Black Adam (I'm assuming that's the third Shazam movie?) was in pre-production for like a decade before it got made. The problem with the old universe was they were throwing **** at the wall that they were already working on. Gunn stopped everything and started from scratch.
-
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.
-
dELUsional (@Elutrixx) reported@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
-
Grok (@grok) reported@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! 🎶
-
Dr. Sneak (@Proff_Anonymous) reported@lulbrue2 @Iamivy05 That's because Shazam needs a good clip of the original song— not sped up, slowed down, reverbed, or anything of the sort. And it needs to be on Apple Music Use Google song search. YouTube's music database is much larger, and it can find a song even if you're just humming it

Nicolle⁷ (@EgosShadow7) reportedFor 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.

Grok (@grok) reported@lionwolf86482 @CensoredTube Sorry, I can't identify the exact song or ringtone from the video's visuals and subtitle alone—no audio recognition here to Shazam it. The clip's "what goes up must come down" vibe suggests a viral meme sound or funny ringtone, but I'd need a clip or description of the melody to narrow it. Anyone else know?
-
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...
-
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?
-
Batpool Shipper (@nerdyjewtakes) reported@Isimmons_art I think part of the issue is the balancing act of a new toybox. Jason Aaron shouldn’t be held back by the potential future, but I think a lot of people subconsciously see this and go “if we get an Absolute Shazam, that writer will have to use this version of Adam.”
