Recalling and finding a song if you don't know the name and artist can be quite difficult. Nevertheless, the modern possibilities of the Internet and some special services can greatly simplify the task.
Instructions
Step 1
If you don't know the name and artist, you can find a song using special applications installed on smartphones and tablets. One of the most famous and popular is Shazam, available as a free download on the App Store. The program works as follows: while playing a song, for example, on the radio, you need to launch Shazam and bring your phone to the sound source, and then press a special button in the application.
Step 2
Wait a few seconds for the program to check the piece of the melody against the library of songs in online stores. After that, you will see the name of the song and the artist on the screen. It is important that the sound source is of sufficient quality and does not mix with extraneous noise. In this case, the accuracy of the determination is significantly increased. There are similar programs on other mobile systems and devices, for example, TrackID on Sony phones.
Step 3
You can try to find a song if you do not know the name and artist, according to the words that sound in it. Try to remember at least one phrase from the chorus and enter it in one of the Internet search engines. Perhaps the results will lead you to one of the songwriting sites that you are looking for. Also try listening to radio stations and watching music channels more often so you can hear or see the song title and artist when it starts playing. In addition, the author of a song can sometimes be identified by the manner in which a particular composition is performed, its unique features characteristic of this singer.
Step 4
Take advantage of special music forums on the Internet or services for answering questions, where users help each other find out the name of the song and the artist. But for this, it is advisable to indicate as many details as possible that characterize the composition: where did you hear it, how the performer's voice sounded, what the words were, and what the melody looks like. You can try to ask a similar question to sellers in music stores.
Step 5
Explore the list of popular songs on social networks. For example, the VKontakte social network has a Music page with a Popular section. It is possible that this is where you will find the song that you have been looking for for a long time. Also take advantage of suitable groups and communities of interest.
