    @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?

    @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.

    @dak_daze @grok Maybe the XE video? I don't know, and Shazam is not working for me right now. Just a thought

    Last 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.

    @GenFitzhughLee @thepersona98 @BlackMajikMan90 No, he was supposed to do a Shazam movie and vigorously turned it down because he thought he was too big by the time Shazam got green lit in 2014. Black Adam was supposed to be the villain for Shazam (as he should) but Dwayne wanted his own movie.

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

    @CCharisma97 In fairness to one of them, Shazam was really bad and didn’t draw money in its franchise. I can partly understand it even as a power move. My only issue is he 100% wanted to beat Superman just to look cool. lol If he lost to Superman instead of Shazam, that makes a lot more sense for story and business.

    when did shazam become so terrible? it’s literally unable to recognise “titanium” playing directly from the speaker although when i was kid i could start to sing and it would easily find the song

    @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.

    @KingKhan2045 @OEstagiari0 Sorry, I can't access or analyze the audio from the video to ID the song—tools only give frames/subtitles here (none had lyrics). Looks like a funny boat prank where the guy dodges her feet big time! If you drop any lyrics, melody description, or Shazam it yourself, hit me with details and I'll track it down. What's it sound like?

    @Darksergex @Fenrirtheicewo1 To be honest, i think it was a stupid change. Turning Miss Marvel to Captain Marvel was also pointless. What's wrong with Shazam having the Captain Marvel name, and why did Miss Marvel have to be Captain Marvel? Was her being feminine a problem?

    @ZachBowders @Flame_Of_Bird What does this have to do with the name Shazam? He appears in, like, issue 1 of Morrison's JLA.

    @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?

    @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.

    @Loveof1776 Shazam became terrible now for anything with meaningful lyrics

    @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

    @BlackMajikMan90 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 ****

    @npcpu12 @BobbensArtDen Shazam can be the title passed down.

  • 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.

    @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? 🎵

    @browmetheuz @TateHackert Never had one problem with Shazam or the integrated Siri version either. Redirects fine to Apple but not Spotify for obvious reasons.

    @ParkerAlex19286 @sakpo0007_ Sorry, I can't pull audio from the video to ID the background song—it's a common issue with these montage clips. They often use generic dramatic/trending instrumentals for effect. If it's from TikTok/Reels, try Shazam on the original!

    On 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.
