A music player that can download lyrics...?

Hey guys is their any software that can download the lyrics of the playing song..like ttpod or zimly music player in Android...?

Hello Vinny

Have a look at these links see if that's what you require - http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/178748-windows-media-player-enable-song-lyrics.html
OR MiniLyrics - Show lyrics in iTunes, Windows Media Player, Winamp, etc.

Wonderful...thank you...

Hi there
Incidentally as an extra to the post -- if you RIP a CD say to FLAC with WINAMP it will get the song titles etc from GRACENOTE and label all the tracks for you. The labelling is also customisable in Winamp.

I'm not sure if there's any software around that will automatically label a track that you've say recorded youself - even when you've used the optical output from the physical player (not the computer) into an optical input on the recording device.


If someone knows some software that performs this trick I'd be really pleased

not sure of any, but as you say winamp is good, i have found it to be 98% reliable for finding track lists. not so great at album art but thats easily solved with google images.

and as long as you play the album in winamp you can get it to search for the info, you dont have to have ripped it in winamp.

In winamp playlist highlighting all the tracks and right click /send to /autotag will generally sort it out, i then use wmp3tag and open the folder highlight the tracks and click tag to filename ,this changes the file names from track 1 track 2 etc to the tag you just created in winamp.
it sounds complicated but is really very simple once done a couple of times.
you can even set the parameters for the way it shows ie.
track number /artist/track title /cd number etc and you can rearrange the order these show in wmp3tag and in how it displays in the playlist in winamp.

the mini lyrics works but i don't like it...and the link for lyrics plugin is dead...downloaded from softonic but its not working..what may be the problem..

you could try tunewiki

TuneWiki for Windows user reviews and ratings - CNET Download.com

Try MusicBee, it'll do that, and more, right out the box.

lyrics plugin link is working today...music bee is also cool..but in both of them the lyrics stays stationary and doesn't flow with song...
so is it possible to make the lyric flow with the song...?

So what you're really looking for is some kind of karaoke software rather than a media player?

Yup...

Hi there
Music Wiki IMO is a total waste of time on W7 -- It works (allegedly) at comparing the Music lyrics with what's in its database. No good for things like Classical Music -- it's got no chance whatsoever of determining Artist(s), Orchestra, Conductor - especially as often with things like Opera many many different people can sing the same pieces.

It's incredibly basic -- highly NOT recommended.

I still use Winamp -- it will also as a previous poster stated display track info on albums without having to rip them first -- but I have now my entire CD collection (probably over 1000 over the years) ripped to HDD in FLAC so I was very happy Winamp labelled all the tracks etc. I almost NEVER play a "physical Album".
I've got all this musicl on a 500 GB HDD and backed up to another HDD. (I'm not going through the whole process again of ripping 1000 CD's !!).

FLAC is nice LOSSLESSLY compressed music so it plays at the original CD quality. Winamp plays FLAC (so does VLC by the way) and my portable music player |a SANSA ZIP device also plays FLAC.

For High quality listening at home as well I use the Squeezebox server system -- it tramsmits (Wirelessly) to an OPTICAL input on my High quality Amp and the device also lists details about the song being played and album art if it can find it.

Also when streaming Internet radio it also lists details of music being played. This might be what you are looking for.

Great system
