Sound Upload’s Lyrics section allows you to search by the lyrics within a song too, so you can either search by Artist, Song Title or any lyrics you know within the song.

Sorry metrolyrics.com sucks. It’s never accurate and they won’t allow for copying and pasting for lyrics. If any site really wants to make the lyrics be accurate, they will stop allowing users to submit lyrics and they themselves will only submit official lyrics. And if they don’t have the official lyrics they need to state on the page the lyrics aren’t official.

http://www.sing365.com/ is the most accurate. Hell for Lady GaGa it’s the only one who has Starstruck song correct (It’s dre headphones not dirty headphones like most lyrics sites have it) and also says the correct lyrics to Just Dance (her official lyrics she says ok not okay). And has Shaggy’s Freaky Girl lyrics correct (Shaggy says alongside the Kraft not Christ)

The best way to do all this is NOT TO ALLOW USERS TO SUBMIT LYRICS. Because most go by either what they think the artist says, copy and paste lyrics from other sites or they try and make the lyrics grammatically correct instead of the way the artist wrote them.

If the lyrics aren’t “Official” they shouldn’t be posted. Official means the exact words, typed exactly like the artist typed them. And unfortunately no lyrics site only uses official lyrics thus none are all that accurate.

Some of these websites you have listed are not even allowed to display copyrighted material and essentially stealing from artists.

Only Lyrics.com, Lyricsmode.com and Metrolyrics.com are legal and actually compensate the artists.

You also need to factor in good search engine optimization. When you type the lyrics in google who comes up first? That is how most people search for lyrics as not all websites will have them.

I’m surprised you guys didn’t include Lyrics Fly (http://www.lyricsfly.com) –I discovered it from you! Besides lyrics –albeit not every single one I looked for– you have links to videos, album covers and even mp3 downloads.

LyricWiki.org – fail!
sorry, everything must be case sensitive, it just hands over to Google, ads where it promised not to, wrong results all over the manor

Thank you for posting this info! However, I think you missed perhaps the finest lyric repository of them all: LyricWiki.org. I’ve been using this site for a while and it seems to provide lyrics which other sites often miss, even Lyrics.com. Plus, it’s contains user-generated content and is routinely updated. Give it a try, and see what you think. Thanks again.
