I don’t think I will ever grow tired of the wonders that is Shazam. Want to know what song that is playing in a movie? How about in a bar? On your radio? Shazam! Press the listen button and the app will tell you the name of the song, artist and album. I have yet to figure out how it works but I continue to be impressed.

92 WICB (91.7 FM) – Ithaca College Radio – The Station For Innovation
I am thoroughly impressed that Colin lives in Texas and can listen to the radio station of his Alma-mater all the way in Ithaca, NY. And apparently this radio station won #1 in 2010 Princeton Review for Best College Radio Station.
SoundHound + hands-free with “OK Hound” | Search, Discover and Play Music
You can ID songs blazing fast, search by singing, see lyrics, and browse artists to your heart’s content. Best part is there is no limit to the number of song “tests” you want to run. I think I might have to try out the singing feature to see just how well that works. I didn’t know it could ID songs based on voice. I wonder how well if works if someone is a terrible singer!
