No, I didn’t believe in magic until I used Shazam. When I first used this application, I was amazed at the high accuracy with which it recognized the song. Now the creators of the app have taken it a step further and added music recognition history to Shazam’s arsenal.

I’m pretty sure you’ll also have your own Shazam stories where he helped you find an unfamiliar song in any situation. Mind you, I didn’t test this in a quiet place where anyone could even hear the voice of a heartbeat, but in a busy mall where the song was almost hard to distinguish from a loud crowd.
