Songs are a wonderful thing. We have them for every mood. We have party songs, love songs, happy songs, and everyone’s favourite sad songs. But let me ask, did you ever had an earworm stuck in your brain? Well, who hasn’t? We all at many times are stuck with only a few lines from a song’s lyrics, and we just couldn’t put our finger on the song’s name.
It’s so frustrating not to be able to search the complete song that’s been eating your head for days. Well, Spotify is here with the solution to our earworm reverberation problem.
Users can now search for songs on Spotify by using just their lyrics, and this feature is available on both the iOS and Android. The feature appears to be pretty simple. Users have to type in the song lyrics which they remember.
Just enter them in Spotify’s search bar and the app automatically will display the songs that match the results.
Pretty straightforward.
To make identification simple, the Swedish music streaming firm has provided a “Lyrics match” tags with the songs that could be a potential match for the lyrics entered.
Lin Wang, a designer at Spotify, stated in his tweet, “I could see how searching by lyrics could be a convenient feature, especially for people like me. I’m quite bad at remembering song titles, but I can usually remember the key line of a chorus. It seems like that’s all I’d need to know to be able to find a song on Spotify that’s stuck in my head”.
However, Spotify isn’t the first company to offer search songs by lyrics feature. The Cupertino giant already has this feature for its Apple Music since 2018. But Spotify is sure one step closer to catching up with Apple music software.
Spotify also included a real-time lyrics feature which includes the lyrics provided by Musixmatch. With the inclusion of these two features, it is inching closers to Apple Music, whether the Swedish firm will be able to finally match the apple music platform the only time will tell.
