Shazam works perfectly on my phone. The only slight niggle is that the moment the app is opened it throws this error:

Google Play Services Error
Shazam is having trouble with Google Play services

This app won't work properly unless you allow Google Play services' request to access the following:

Calendar
Microphone
Telephone
Body sensors

To continue, open Settings, then Permissions, and allow all listed items

You. Have. To. Be Joking.

As mentioned, it does work properly.

What's this nonsense all about? Why is "Google Play services" involved? The Shazam app is the one that's listening and it has microphone permissions to do so. It most certainly doesn't need the things it mentions.

Doesn't stop me using the app, it's just annoying having to cancel that dialog.
