identify music in a YouTube video
Sometimes you might want to find the name of the background music used on YouTube. Right? And you want to find the link to the video or music on the web. But how is it possible? I also sometimes have the same problem. When I listen to background music and I want to get the music only, I use the following ways. Hope you might find my idea helpful.
There are basically four methods I use. Sometimes any one of the methods works whereas sometimes I have to use all four methods.
Usually, YouTube content creators use the name or link of the music used in their video. You can find it in the description and search on the web. But it becomes difficult to identify music when it is not mentioned in the video description. Some creators might have stated the name of the music used in the intro or at the end of the video. You can use this method. This method sometimes works.
Some Background music used in a YouTube video might have lyrics. Try to listen to the lyrics carefully and type in the search engine. You might get the name of the music and links to the music. This is very helpful if the lyrics of the music are available. But what if the music doesn’t have lyrics. Then you have to try other methods.

Then you have to click on the extension and let the plugin listen for some time. After a few seconds, the plugin recognizes the music and gives you the link to background music.
