Lyrics
Stop muttering lyrics under your breath and start singing out
loud! SongGenie finds the lyrics you’ve always wanted, letting
you view them on the move with your iPhone or iPod.
Finding lyrics after identification
After identification, SongGenie will look up available song lyrics for your music
on the web. This is entirely automatic and results are shown on the song card
just like other song information.
Song lyrics will appear after song identification if available. You can review
lyrics before applying them to the song.

other song information.

Manually finding lyrics with Web Search
On the rare occasion that SongGenie’s automatic lyric search cannot find
words to your songs, you can use the built-in Lyrics Web Search. This tool al-
lows you to manually search the web just like you would in any normal web
browser. When you find the lyrics you want, you’re just one click away from
adding them to your music.

want to run your own custom search, simply use the search field in the top
right hand corner of this window. See the Chapter “Customizing SongGenie”
on how to customize the pages which are loaded by default.
