Hi there, all lyrics are added by another company called LyricFind. Basically you need the copyright holders to authorise the use of the lyrics and it's not possible to let users adding them.
An Idea would be allow the users to insert the lyrics (as draft version) and only visible to the user (like “personal notes/lyrics”.
And what Deezer could do with that, is receive the Lyrics, request authorization from the copyright holder that published, and if allowed, make it public and official to all Deezer users.
This way Deezer can make use of the collaborative to populate quicker more lyrics, and until it gets published, at least the user is happy he gets to see the lyrics to his favorite songs (even if it’s only accessible by him/her). :)
Hey, is there any update on this topic? Also is there a way to suggest improvements for already existed lyrics on a song? ( sometimes it's wrong) I can suggest to implement this feature as export/import lyrics files for local use on all platforms ( except web i guess ). If its possible i can implement this feature on android (working as android dev for over 6 years )
How many upvotes are needed to see this happen. Its a great idea to implement the editing/adding lyrics. There are so many lyrics either missing or completely wrong.
We need to make this an option on Deezer!!
Deezer is by far my favourite app for music, adding this feature would make it the perfect music app!!
Probably the reason for not offering lyrics editing is the provider LyricFind. Spotify uses Musixmatch again after several years which offers editing or adding lyrics on their own site and also in their downloadable app.
