We can’t live without music. Sometimes it happens that you are watching a movie or a music video, or in a cafe or a restaurant, and there is a song you come across that you really can’t get enough of. However, you don’t know its name and how to identify a song playing on mac becomes a problem. Fortunately for Mac users, they can use Siri to recognize those songs which are playing around. Just follow the steps below and you can always identify the song impresses you so much.
Identify Any Song Playing on Mac with Siri
1. First, you need to play a song on Mac and keep it in high volume. Then press the button in the upper right corner of your Mac window for activation. Now ask Siri “what song is playing” or “tell me the song’s name”. Siri will take a short time in listing and will list the results.
I’ve tried a few songs and Siri worked very well that it can even recognize songs in different languages. Thus you can give it a try on your local language and it won’t let you down anyway.
2. After Siri identifies the song, iTunes will play it automatically. It feels great to identify music when you are watching a show on Netflix or a music video on YouTube, or even movies on Amazon Prime, elsewhere online. However, some people may find it annoying when iTunes automatically opens, but there isn’t a way to disable that so you either have to close iTunes or just ignore it.
Once you know the name of the song and if you would like to sing along, just ask and Siri also has the ability to dish the lyrics out.
