Paste the post link, or identify the song while the video plays.
How to identify a song on X (Twitter)
To find the song in a video on X (Twitter), copy the post's link, paste it into AHA Music's video URL identifier, and start the scan; it fetches the public post's video and lists the songs it contains with timestamps. Posts from protected accounts cannot be fetched; play those and use the Chrome extension instead.
- Copy the post link from X (Share, then Copy link).
- Paste it into the box above and start the scan.
- Read the songs found, with the time each one plays.
- For protected accounts or Spaces, play the audio and click the AHA Music extension icon.
Why X (Twitter) is different
Videos on X are usually short and loud: edits, clips and memes with a track mixed under speech or sound effects. The scan takes the whole clip and lists every match with its position, so the few seconds of music in an edit are enough.
Both x.com and twitter.com links work, including links from the share sheet with tracking parameters. Quote posts and reposts point at the original post, which is what gets scanned.
Protected accounts, deleted posts and Spaces replays are not reachable from a link. Anything you can play in the browser can still be identified with the extension.

When it fails, and what to do
- The account is protected or the post was deleted.
- Our server cannot fetch it; play it and use the extension.
- The post has an image or a GIF, not a video.
- Only video posts carry audio to identify.
- The clip is a sped-up or slowed edit.
- Heavy tempo changes can break the fingerprint; the result may show the original at a different speed or nothing.
Questions about X (Twitter)
Do x.com and twitter.com links both work?
Yes. Both point at the same post and are fetched the same way.
Can I find the song in a Space?
Spaces have no downloadable file. Play the Space and use the extension.
Why is there no match for a viral edit?
Edits are often sped up, pitched or layered with sound effects. Try a quieter part with the extension, or search the original sound named in the replies.
