Today, I&#8217;m focusing on something that will also contribute to make your music collection a bit better: searching the Web for the lyrics to your favorite songs and importing them directly into the files&#8217; ID tags, all with a minimum of effort.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-images.sftcdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2009\/06\/lyricsfetcher-01.png\" alt=\"Find lyrics on the Web and import them to iTunes\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The trick is using LyricsFetcher,\u00a0 a handy free app that scans your iTunes or Windows Media Player library and searches the web for the lyrics of all the songs you have &#8211; or just the ones you select. The first time you launch it, LyricsFetcher may seem to be a bit slow but that&#8217;s just because it needs to load your whole music library before doing anything else. From that moment on, finding the lyrics to all your favorite songs will be a piece of cake.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>All you have to do is select the file or files you want to find the lyrics to and click &#8216;Fetch&#8217; . LyricsFetcher will search the Web, locate the lyrics, downlod them and save them to the file&#8217;s ID tags in the blink of an eye. The program is incredibly fast and accurate. I tried several music styles, different languages and not so popular bands, and LyricsFetcher always found the right lyrics, without missing a single song.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-images.sftcdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2009\/06\/lyricsfetcher-02.png\" alt=\"Find lyrics on the Web and import them to iTunes\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The best thing about this great app is that you don&#8217;t even need to copy and paste the lyrics into the file&#8217;s ID tags. When you edit them in iTunes or Windows Media Player, the lyrics will already be there, ready for you to sing along to your favorite band.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A while ago I wrote a post about how to find album covers on the Internet and import them to iTunes, so that when you browse your music library &#8211; either on the PC or on your iPod &#8211; you can enjoy colorful artwork instead of those boring gray music notes.
