Tapping Out The Hits
The Song Tapper claims to be able to recognize a song that you tap into the computer using only your space bar. But I've tried "What A Fool Believes" twice now, and they're not recognizing it. Here's what I tapped, and here's what they suggested I was tapping:
Gimme Gimme Gimme (A Man After Midnight) Abba |
We've Had Enough Alkaline Trio |
Englishman In New York Sting |
Saturday Night Whigfield |
Run To The Hills Iron Maiden |
Turkish March Mozart |
My Favorite Things |
Oh, Dreidel, Dreidel, Dreidel |
Coin-Operated Boy Dresden Dolls |
Sweet Home Alabama King / Rossington |
I tried a second time, tapping out the entire verse and chorus of "Summer of '69" by Bryan Adams. (Why? I don't know.) Perfect match: it was the first song suggested. "Feel Like Makin' Love" by Bad Company didn't fare as well, but I'm not sure if that's because I counted the word "love" in the verses as multiple syllables. And no, I didn't play the guitar part of the chorus on the keyboard - but it sounds like the computer missed a few of the taps. I wonder if I'm typing out vocal dynamics using the space bar, and the light ones aren't registering.
Finally, I tried "Faith" by George Michael. No luck. And it suggested "Englishman In New York" by Sting and "No Matter What" by Boyzone for the second time.
Admittedly, my rhythm's not perfect, but I wonder how many people will find what they're looking for here.
