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!

@Rudi When you say Desktop app, you mean the Windows OS right?

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 :wink:

I like having a lyrics feature and am content with not every song having lyrics but have noticed that way too many lyrics are just wrong – not out of sync but just wrong as if misheard in some places – which can be quite frustrating and quite a let down for me. As a result I am not using the lyrics feature as often as I would like to.

In my experience Genius has the lyrics right more often that the LyricFind who are partnering with Deezer but just found out that Genius are a partner of Spotify so I guess I will have to hope LyricFind step up their game :-(

Hi @P.A. Ngoma due to technical reasons it is not possible to give users access to add lyrics because it is only an integrated feature. Feel free to contact our partner LyricFind :wink:

When making improvements to the lyrics, hope that you will also be able to compete against Apple Music with the number of songs that have synced lyrics. Love your service (and that there is competition) but they’re doing great job with the UX and assortment

Hi @mrks, thanks for sharing you insights with us.
You can transform your idea into a Community submission and see if it resonates with fellow members.
Who knows, your concept might gather support and become a reality through community votes. Your input is invaluable to us!

I don’t want lyrics, I especially don’t want lyrics while casting, why no option to disable when casting ? 10 years a customer but goodbye

Suggestion:

Make lyrics searchable and make lyrics filterable.

Example: If I cannot remember a song’s title but a verse, it would be helpful to be able to search for words I remember from the song. If that’s supposed to be working already, it doesn’t for me :-)

Example for “filtering”: The same idea applies (you’d get a search result for the words you typed in in “lyrics search”), but you’d be able to “filter music out”, e.g. for Flow. That way users could create filters of words they don’t want to hear in combination in a song in their flow (yes, this is playing on my “global filter for religious music” posted elsewhere, but it’s more general).

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 think there should be an option where you can set your preferred language for the partially available lyrics translations. I have my app and my phone in english, but my first language is german, so I would like to read some of the english lyrics in german for comprehension reasons. But I can't do that because deezer thinks I'm english. Maybe you can also couple that with the language of the country selector. The language of the UI should still depend on the system settingsThe english UI

Whenever a song has gaps (no one singing) it should show that “loading” animation, not just at the beginning of the song before the singer starts singing.

Still no reply here…

Deezer used to be the best, but now I cant disable lyrics when casting, I don’t want lyrics, i want a music streaming app, not a karaoke!!  If you had included a simple disable lyrics option for chromecast you would have kept me, but lyrics are being forced on me, you’ve lost a 10 year customer.

How do you turn off the lyrics when you’re listening to music on the TV using the Deezer TV app?

Because the lyrics keep the screen on and won’t let it go to screensaver it risks burning the screen on a new OLED TV.

Not only that they are also out of sync a lot and also it’s distracting a bit like having subtitles on a film which you don’t need.

Apple Music lets the TV go to screensaver therefore not ruining the television.

Hey @tarik_alp_onar 

Thanks a lot for your feedback. We'll pass it on to our teams dealing with this :thumbsup_tone2: they're actually looking into this possibility.

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!

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.


I have the same problem, for example with Cold by Maroon 5, actually a relatively well-known track.

Most tracks I listen don’t have any lyrics. Call it hard dance.

For example Refuzion - The Things You Hated, but you can find lyrics here:

http://www.lololyrics.com/lyrics/38241.html

By the way, these lyrics are just robust. 6/5 if not more.

Please remain seated while listening to this amazing track. Good vibe to dance.

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! :sunglasses:

I see a desync on this track: https://deezer.page.link/KumVJy2B9CrDjmKp9

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.

 

How Will I Know

The Thrillseekers

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
