Luttle luck with French songs, got weird matches that didn't sound at all like the original.
Zero luck with tunes from clqssical music, even with very well known arias.
May be an artifact of how this has been tested, and by whom...?
3/3 for pop, 0/3 for Bach, Sousa, Aaron Copeland.
I tried 3 songs: * Everybody Has a Dream by Billy Joel * Kids by MGMT * Good Day Sunshine by The Beatles 0 hits. I know I'm not the world's best singer, but I was humming the right notes.
It got MGMT's Kids no problem, and I know I sung out out of tune.
I'm very impressed.
I found out worked better if I use "doo dee doo dee doo" rather than humming.
As a child I remember hearing a beautiful song, sung in Japanese (so not searchable by anglo me), and today I finally found it [1]. Thanks Google! [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbTsG9jrJsU
I just tried this with a melody I've had stuck in my head for days - no results. Then I tried "Happy Birthday" and got three results: "Las Mananitas" by Canticos "Iyi Ki Dogdun Melissa", by Eser Ulun "Iyi Ki Dogdun Zarife", by Eser Ulun I'm no Pavarotti, but I can sing on pitch and have played the violin for 40 years. EDIT: Heh, "Iyi Ki Dogdun" is Turkish for Happy Birthday, and the links would have taken me to YouTu…
I wonder, does it know how to transpose? People may end up humming tunes in different keys that their voices can more easily reach. Also, why the hell do I need an app for this? Is it actually running a local model? Because my guess is that it's just hitting an API.
There's no way it would do much locally, but maybe they just wanted to make sure the audio passed to the API has a certain sample rate and encoding?

I've gotten about 10 hits of 12, with such diverse things as "Bella Ciao" (Italian song), "Space Oddity" (the first few bars are practically a monotone), the Pink Panther (no words) and Kalasnjikov by Bregovic (random Serbian (?) words that I don't know). It got MGMT's Kids no problem, and I know I sung out out of tune. I'm very impressed. I found out worked better if I use "doo dee doo dee doo" rather than humming.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Anecdotally, it's 3/3 for me, one of which was Kids by MGMT. I'm seeing some fairly divergent results here, I wonder if it's highly sensitive to the particular user's voice.
Did you hum or sing? I wonder if that makes a difference. I hummed.
