Lyrics Plugin for Windows Media Player and Winamp
February 3rd, 2008
The Lyrics Plugin main page really says it all. It lets you see the lyrics for the music that is playing. I use it for Windows Media Player 11, and the install process is easy. Click download, run the installer, which will close Windows Media Player, and after the install Windows Media Player reopens with the plugin enabled. It takes the place of the visualizer, and it is simple enough to switch between the lyrics plugin and the visualizer.
It downloads the lyrics dynamically when each song is played, so if you’re offline you’re out of luck, but with an internet connection the lyrics load more or less instantly. Over all the actual lyrics seem to be pretty accurate as well.
Oh, and did I mention that it’s free?
