Absolutely outstanding. Thanks so much for making this free, and making it work seamlessly. The option to automatically add lyrics to the file lyrics tag when the song plays is of particularly high value.

I've been waiting years for something like this.

WOW! Simply, wow. I've tried all sorts of solutions, even thought I'fd found one or two over the years that was, for a time, sure to be the solution for me. This little application fixes all the shortcomings of the others. It now has the ability to save the lyrics into iTunes. It has a plethora of lyrics sites (13 at this writing) available at the bottom of the window. User can control appearance in many ways.

One feature needed: the ability to have (via a preference tick) it start when iTunes does. Actually I'd prefer the reverse, to start iTunes if this app is started as there might be times when you just need to fire up iTunes for a quick thing. Meh, I have a script for such things when I want the full experience (iTunes, You Control, Sizzling Keys, and now this one).

Thank you so much for your comments. I'm really glad to hear that you like my application. Now that I feel it was worth to have some sleep deprivation to develop it :D

I'm going to consider enhancing iTunes control feature such as launch iTunes, play/pause track and so forth.

Thanks again, TIance.

Just downloaded it works and looks great. It would be wonderful to have an option to save the lyrics to the iTunes lyrics info.

Thanks a lot for your comments, Davyboy.
Your comments makes my day!

As for a saving option, I have been thinking a lot about it and have not decided yet. It is a copyrights concern.

Please feel free to write comments if you have more suggestions or questions.

Thanks again.

ooks like an amazing program and something I could really use, but although the requirements state Mac OS 10.5 or later, it is not compatible with my iMac running 10.6.8. Sad days.

I am really sorry that it didn't work. Could you tell me the problem details because I really want to support 10.6.8.

I like it. Quickly displays most lyrics clearly. There seems to sometimes be an issue when it comes across a song with no lyrics in that lyrics are presented that don't belong to the song but that could be on account of the websites it searches. I like that you can have iTunes running in the background and the lyrics automatically displaying as tracks change.

Thank you, Mikeaugustleo,

I am really glad to hear that you like it. I will try to find a way to improve chances of getting right lyrics, probably by adding more sites.

Thanks again!

Thanks for making Singer Song Reader available. However, the app crashes immediately on launch. (BTW, where in Japan?)

I am sorry for the late replay. I always have been checking Review tab but I didn't know about Troubleshooting tab until today. The latest version 2.1 is tested on OS X 10.9 and it works.
I currently live in Okinawa, the south most part of Japan.
Thanks a lot for your comments and I wish it works fine on your end this time.
