Our Lyrics feature is one of our favorites, but we know we can make it better. We've had good suggestions in our ideas forum but we need more of your opinion to take another step in order to improve this so popular feature.
For this reason, we'd like to invite you to post your feedback here, in one place - so that our product managers and developers can see what we're missing out!
@djjestaa@Hoo Boo our product managers have been monitoring your suggestions too ;)

Our devs got back to us - this feature hasn't been developed yet @GSM Terra but they also recognise the importance of this through your comments - thank you for adding to the discussion

I notice that my “feature request” has been marked as solved, it’s not solved as I still can’t stop lyrics when casting!! Why this “feature “ was released without a way to turn it off is beyond me… I don’t think I’ll be a deezer subscriber again anytime soon… currently looking for a proper music service that actually lets me control what “features “ I want to use!! A simple switch to turn off lyrics in settings should have been implemented from the start.
Hi,
Some of the Live Lyrics aren’t synchronized properly with the song. please provide an option within the lyrics so we can report for those glitches.
Regards.
Hello, can you show me where your request was marked as solved?

Hey, this "solved" means that the support you received from our customer care team was solved. As Ronja said in her last email, "users are currently unable to hide the lyrics unless you're playing on the queue or not on the music cover." We have passed this feedback on to the right team and hopefully it can be improved soon!
I find it annoying to see the constant scrolling of lyrics when casting to my TV. I miss the option to disable this.
Hey @StanStan123
We're with you on this, thanks for the support. I've moved your comment here so that our devs can see your comments together with the previous ones about disabling lyrics - hopefully it can be developed in the near future
I would love to see synced lyrics like Amazon Music were instead of going to a separate screen, the synced lyrics pop up on the album cover so you'd be able to still see the track information with the album art being visible behind the lyrics.
Interesting one @MattNicholas that's more of a layout suggestion, in visuals. I like the idea, and our devs will be looking at this topic too
Hello - this is a fantastic feature, but I fear it might never actually fulfil its potential if you leave it to lyrics websites to get everything onto the site. I propose you open up lyric submission to fans (the ones who really love the music will be the most keen to put them up and also know the lyrics betters than most people). Obviously, this will require that the lyrics get reviewed to take care of the odd clown who puts something ridiculous or offensive up - but perhaps you could have lyric contributors verify their ID with you before being able to upload to nip this in the bud. I would also add functionality so that the contributor (or Deezer themselves) can simply send out messages to the official websites, or social media presences of the artists on the site, and give them the opportunity to get their lyrics up on the site and confirm that there are no errors o9n what has been uploaded by fans. I miss the days when you would get lyrics in the inserts in CDs (and yes, cassettes! lol). It is surprising to me that more artists don’t want the right lyrics out there, when there are so many mishears and mistakes on the lyrics websites. Anway, that’s what I think!
Oh, while I’m here, here are the lyrics for ‘How Will I Know?’ The Thrillseekers, NB. Some remixes might required different ordering for the verses and choruses, but this should be correct for the original and the most part. Usually this wouldn’t really be an issue, but if you’re going to have the lyric sync feature going, you need specific lyrics for every separate version and remix.
Watch the night fade away Still hurting from the words spoken Our paths let astray Life we shared left shattered and broken
How will I find my way out of the dark When will I let go How will I know
Feel the walls closing in My restless heart left torn and lonely I see dark skies within Wishing you were here to hold me
How will I know (when I've found my way out) My way out of the dark (and the lingering silence) When will I let go (of my shadows and doubts) How will I know
A future unknown What will become when you're not here Now stand here alone Trying to leave you behind Trying to let go
How will I know (when I've found my way out) My way out of the dark (and the lingering silence) When will I let go (of my shadows and doubts) How will I know (how will I know)
How will I know (when I've found my way out) My way out of the dark (and the lingering silence) When will I let go (of my shadows and doubts) How will I know
And to prove my points from my previous posts - just using the lyric feature on Satellite (Original Mix) Above and Beyond - and there is a whole verse missing at after the first verse. THis stuff is so annoying to fans, and is really shoddy and careless work if you are having an actual lyrics website supply them to you. I assume they’re being compensated? Well, they aren’t worth it. I would be happy to make you an offer with a contract stating a requirement for accuracy percentage (based on word count) for a fair flat fee per track (with discounted rate for reversioning songs for different arrangements or remixes). I have over a decade of experience providing captioning, subtitles, transcripts and karaoke lyrics to major clients in TV, film and broadcasting in general. Contact me on my email address if you’d like to know more. (I assume you can grab that from my membership...) Cheers, Matt W.
Thank you for your detailed feedback. At the moment, LyricFind is our lyrics partner. You may reach them about amendments directly: https://www.lyricfind.com/index.php?id=122
Hey @AlexWayfer same thing applies and it's quicker with them, rather through the community
I would love to be able to copy the lyrics to my clipboard so I can paste them into my Google translate. I listen to a lot of songs in different languages.
Lyrics font size are too small.. it would be better if they could be even bigger.
Also, an option to report wrong lyrics or reporting lyrics sync issues.
Cheers.
I don't like the lyrics feature. It's poorly implemented.
I rather use MusixMatch and I'm gladly paying for it's premium membership. Why? Because it's lyrics implementation still allows me to use the progressbar of a track, and still be able to tap and move to any part of the track. Even if MusixMatch is missing lots of lyrics, I prefer it over the integrated feature.
I wish deezer would remake the lyrics feature in the same way, that MusixMatch has done it.
I really find your feedback amazing, guys @Harmonie@Mr. Jahrami@Steve.DiGregorio
I agree with you all but I must confess I haven't tried MusixMatch yet!
Nevertheless, it's for our devs to decide on what to improve, that's why we created this thread. I'll be forwarding your suggestions right now. Hopefully improving performance and choosing the lyrics font size is something we can tackle as a quick win
@Rudi
This is how MusixMatch implementation of Lyrics look like: Imgur
This implementation of the lyrics feature allows me to still be able to use the player, and tap anywhere in the progressbar, etc. The lyrics don't show a second screen as Deezer does, instead it just covers the title cover with the lyrics, but leaves alone the player navigation.
By tapping the MM bubble or in the MM notification panel, the lyrics show up if they're available.
Unfortunately many lyrics are not available as they apparently need to be added & synchronized by the community (users)
There is also a translation feature, which doesn't work most of the time.
Following screenshot shows the german version of MM:
I think it's an interesting attempt to get these functions within the lyrics feature @Harmonie but as you can see, it needs quite a lot of development and maintenance - that's why we'll tackle, function per function, in order to improve the existing feature on Deezer. Luckily we have LyricFind as a partner in that sense, to be able to get us the lyrics themselves. Super feedback from you, excellent again! Thank you
Dear all! I want to hear the songs and see their lyrics floating over my notebook screen when I do my job. Just like on a mobile version. Is it possible? I would like to hear from you as soon as possible. Thank you! Premium user, Goran Marzic, removed to protect personal details
Hey, Goran @AdriaticSea
Thanks a lot for the suggestion, it’s a very interesting one. We need to improve a few important bits on our desktop app first before we can improve the lyrics feature. But it’s a very cool idea, a bit like a screensaver, right? I think this is something our teams will definitely look into when working on enhancements for the feature
@Rudi When you say Desktop app, you mean the Windows OS right?
Yes, our desktop app is made for Windows and Mac @Harmonie
