Search That Song is an AI-powered song finder. Record music playing nearby, sing or hum the melody, type a misheard lyric, or describe the feeling. We'll match your clue to a real track.
See how it worksEven one mangled line is enough. We search a vector index of millions of lyric chunks so paraphrases still match.
"90s song with whistling, sounds melancholy" is a valid query. Web reasoning plus LLM extraction handles it.
Use the microphone on mobile to identify a recorded song playing nearby, sing part of it, or hum the melody.
Once you've found it, we surface five embedding-nearest tracks (same era, same mood) for the rabbit hole.
Most search tools assume you know the title. Real life doesn't work that way. You remember a single line that won't leave your head, a beat from a friend's wedding, or a chorus you heard once in a coffee shop. Search That Song is built for those moments.
Use whatever clue you've got: a short microphone recording, a hummed or sung melody, a lyric fragment, a feeling, or a description of the music video. Audio clues are matched through music and humming recognition, while text clues run through embedding-based lyric search, real-time web reasoning, and a language model that ranks the candidates.
The complete pipeline combines ACRCloud audio and humming recognition, embedding matches against millions of indexed lyric chunks, web reasoning for descriptive queries, YouTube verification, and neighbour discovery after a confirmed match. The full breakdown lives on the How it works page.
The site is free, ad-supported, and built by an independent developer. Read more about why we built it, browse the top songs people are searching for this week, or just go ahead and try a query.
