Serching in lyrics.

Fri Feb 29, 2008 5:24 pm
Hello, I bring you an idea about a new searching feature :
It would be useful to search a song in the collection by its lyrics.
As an example : I have a lot of songs and I'd like to find the one whose singer says "make it a better place for you and for me" because I don't remember which one it is. Amarok would search in lyrics and show me "Michael Jackson - Heal the world".

I know I could use a web search engine and that's what I do for now but I thought it would be useful in Amarok too.

Have a nice day.

You can already do that. Type "lyrics: blah blah" in the collection search.

Hah, didn't know about this feature. Now I see the [...] button is in the Collection navigator too. Neat.
Just a question: can I search for all tracks without any lyrics? That's a feature I've wanted for years (currently I tag all files with lyrics in a special way. Not a very tidy solution).
