Cool concept. The site seems to be succumbing to the HN effect. There should be some kind of loading indicator on the first search, it didn't seem to be doing anything but when I went to close out the page there were results. I typed "One Beer" into search and a lot of duplicate entries came up.

Thanks for the feedback! The loading indicator is an overlook on my side and you are not the only one that noticed :D. I seem to have been very naive about how HN might affect the site.

Lol, the first song I searched for game 0 results. (Searched for "More With You").

Oh and a bug: If I first search for something and get a result, then enter a new search and scroll down before this new search has completed, it starts searching for page 2-7 of this new search term. Even better if you've already triggered the search for page 2-7 on that first term. If you then scroll down after updating the search, it is now searching for page 8-11 of that new search term :)

Amazing! Something I've been meaning to build myself and now I don't have to. I'd like to echo the need for multiple song search—my use case for this was good playlists in cafes where I want to identify the playlist based on 1-3 shazam'd songs.

Thanks and noted! :)

Thanks, I registered the issue on GitHub.

What do I have to do after entering a song? Pressing Enter does nothing (Firefox, Safari, MacOS).

As other people have noted, the site is missing a loading indicator and currently, very many people are trying to access it, so you are doing everything correctly, just currently requests take upwards of 30 seconds to process.
