Shazam...android music determining app...your thoughts?
I just found this android app today and am testing it out with my radio...it has a 100% success rate so far!!
AAmazing piece of coding, really....to be able to determine what song is playing amidst all sorts of background noise and talking, etc.
I don't know HOW many times I've listened to some song playing at some resturaunt or shop and wanted to know what the hell it was!!"The reason death sticks so closely to life isn't biological necessity - it's envy.

I believe I asked people's thoughts about the PRODUCT itself, whether they use it and enjoy it, etc...NOT whether it came out a few years ago. Are you thick or just a twit?
Whether it came out in 2008 or whenever doesn't abrogate the fact that it is STILL a pretty cool bit of software."The reason death sticks so closely to life isn't biological necessity - it's envy.

If you have an android powered device, it's built in (not sure how recent your version needs to be). Just do a voice command of "what song is this?" and it will tell you.

^^Yeah, I think Google started doing it. Shazam works quite well, congrats on finding it....finally.
I like that it was a widget you can tap so it's basically a 1 touch identify. It's fast and it's pretty amazingly accurate. Maybe it's just coincidence, but it seems to know that the song I'm hearing is on Sons of Anarchy, or whatever movie I'm watching. A little creepy. Not as creepy as Facebook face recognition, but weird in a cool way.No longer stuck.

Ask Siri. You'll get the song and links to video and iTunes Store.
