The song can be identified by humming its tune using tools like Google's "Hum to Search" feature. This feature allows users to hum, whistle, or sing a melody into the Google app or Google Assistant, which then matches the melody using machine learning to find the song, even without lyrics or perfect pitch. Similar apps and services include Shazam, SoundHound, and YouTube Music's humming feature, which all help identify a song by a user’s humming or singing.
To use Google's hum-to-search:
- Open the Google app or Google Search widget on your device.
- Tap the microphone icon and say "What's this song?" or tap "Search a song."
- Hum the tune for about 10-15 seconds.
- Google will analyze the melody and provide the closest matches.
This is the easiest modern way to identify a song just by humming it.
