We recommend you choose communities that are active as it will help you get your desired results faster. Even if the members of the community cannot identify the songs, they may likely recommend some programs to assist you.

Still, you should be as detailed as possible. For example, you could describe the lyrics and the sequences. Also, you could explain the parts of the music video you remember.

If you can remember the characters in the music video and the release date, you should explain them in the description and provide all the necessary details that can help in getting results.

 

4. Use a Song Identifier App

Just as the name implies, song identifier apps are designed specifically to assist people in finding their favorite music videos and songs.

It is different from most search engines and apps as the song identifier app lets you find your desired song by providing a microphone in which you hum.

In most song identifier apps, what you just need to do is press the button — Search a Song. While in some apps, it may just require you to press the mic icon and say — what’s this song?

As soon as the mic is activated, you should hum the song for 10-15 secs and wait for the results to be processed and shown.

5. Search up the Artist’s Discography

Most times, we may not remember the song, but we remember the artist

If you are in this case, searching for the artist instead can help you locate the song faster. For this purpose, you can make use of search engines as the artist’s Wikipedia page may help you gather some information that may be necessary.

You could proceed to check their Spotify and Apple Music pages as there is a possibility that all their songs will be available there.

Furthermore, if you can remember the actors that performed in the music videos, you can search for them individually. When you search for the music videos they have performed before, it might help you find the required video.
