Hi @Jumko, thanks a lot for your lovely feedback! 😍 Users can't add lyrics to tracks at the moment but you are more than welcome to vote for this topic in our ideas forum

https://en.deezercommunity.com/ideas/977

I will of course let you know if there are any changes to this in the future! :)

What are your favorite song lyrics?

Hello,
I always see songs’s lyrics, but sometimes a certain song does not have lyrics and I want to add these lyrics because I know and I want to help others who don’t know the lyrics of the song... is there any way to add lyrics?

@Duda Obladen I moved your topic to this existing one as it was already discussed here 🙂
Hi there,

I have my own songs on deezer. Is there a way to put lyrics just in that songs?

Unfortunately not. This is being handled through an external company, sorry about that.
Hey Deezer - a user for many years, are you still looking into user contribution into adding or amending incorrect lyrics. Was thinking something along the line if we send you the lyrics and you can check and upload them. So many areas where lyrics are lacking- Afro beats, rare music, I feel that the community would Love to help. Maybe 20 song lyrics gives you one months free subscription.

Hi there @Kelly The Musician

Thanks for your support. That's a nice idea - for suggestions, please visit our ideas forum.
In the meantime, because lyrics are managed by a third-party company, you can contact our support team and report to them directly. They'll have a log for your conversation with them and that way they can pass your lyrics' recommendations to our partner.

This is such a good idea. Did they ever respond?

Hi there @Skyeshard

Thank you for your interest. Feedback was passed to our product managers involved in this feature - but the Lyrics are provided by our partner, LyricFind.

If you want to you can add Your Own MP3-s to your deezer account using a Premium memberships but you can't add lyrics to your Own MP3-s unfortunently. 

@Rudi Thank you so much for providing the partner’s name. Are they still Deezer partner?

I see they take lyrics from contributors (https://www.lyricfind.com/fans) so maybe if we’d like to see missing lyrics on Deezer, it would make sense to send them to LyricFind, and after review there’s an actual chance they will be added to Deezer?

What about synchronizing lyrics with music? Not all the songs are synchronized. Is this also handled by LyricFind?

Hello @noelogic I have asked around the tema responsible for Lyrics came back to me and mentioned that Lyrics synchronisation is done on our end but thanks to information sent by LF: they send us timestamps and we interprete it. 
You can report a problem straight from your Deezer app now as you can see in the following article: 

Thanks and apologies for the delay
