Topic: Lyrics Database ? Posted: September 04 2004 at 17:27 |
Mission: Impossible
Seriously: I don't think it's worth the effort. You can find lyrics in your CD's booklet or elsewhere on the web.

That's exactly what I do when I search for lyrics...It works in 98% of all cases

Yassou, Aerandir. I have to agree with the others: it would be a huge undertaking for the Webmaster (I don't know how many people are involved with the upkeep of the site, but I get the impression it's only one or two). One can often read the lyrics for individual albums on a band's Web site. Furthermore, for the very many more-obscure bands/albums I think it would be a very difficult task for the Webmaster to obtain the lyrics.

Not for me.
I think the DVD suggestion should take priority.

So that'd be a "no lyric database" for me, thank you very much? haha
Yeah, I hear you Dan. It'll be a lot of work to do, isn't it? Maybe just some links to band's lyrics will do the trick...

Peace!
