iPhone app Lyrics is great when you turn filter off
The Lyrics app draws on the excellent LyricWiki.org site, which contains crowd-sourced lyrics for more than 700,000 songs. I love the site: it uses an embedded domain-specific Google search bar, which delivers great results. And if you're pedantic about your favorite bands' lyrics like I am, you can easily change lyrics that you just know are wrong--for example, in "Chip Away," Perry Farrell is obviously saying that he and the angel "both wore dirty faces," not that they "both were dirty faces," so I changed it accordingly. (Some songs, like REM's "It's The End of the World As We Know It," have been locked because so many people have different interpretations. The version up there now checked out perfectly against the audio track in iTunes, so I can't quibble.)Unfortunately, while the Lyrics iPhone app draws on a great source, it's ruined by a persistent bug: it thinks perfectly innocuous songs like Led Zeppelin's "The Immigrant Song" and Pink Floyd's "Echoes" contain explicit lyrics. Maybe they're erring on the side of caution to avoid getting blacklisted like Trent Reznor recently did, but using it felt like listening to a crazy person muttering about how all the songs on the radio today are filth.Follow Matt on Twitter.
