Lyrics                                   : Shadows were hiding what I couldn't see / Out in the dark - she was calling to me / Calling to me with a voice I'd never forget / She was a vision I couldn't believe / I held her close so that she wouldn't leave / Suddenly helpless - hopelessly falling in love /  / I remember the feeling / I remember the was / She came up and wrapped her arms around me / Told me that she cared / Said she'd always be there / Taking me places that I've never been / She had the beauty that comes from within / Was dreaming was it too good to be true /  / I was a man all alone in the night / She came along and she showed me the light / I was confused then she told me the way / I was alone and I begged her to stay / She was alive I was caught by the fire / She brought emotions that filled my desire / I should have noticed that something was wrong / When I was awoke she was gone /  / I remember the feeling / I remember the was / She came up and wrapped her arms around me / Told me that she cared / Said she'd always be there / Taking me places that I've never been / She had the beauty that comes from within / Was dreaming was it too good to be true /  / She was alive I was caught by the fire / She brought emotions that filled my desire / I should have noticed that something was wrong / When I awoke, I could see that she was gone

You or someone else would need to address the problem in open issue #350 in the MPD Git repo regarding the lyrics tag.

How would the lyrics be displayed in the UI?

hello Tim,
even if i WAS a programmer , iam completely out now and unfamiliar with these new languages.

I was impressed by Kodi when i used it, that is able to read and download in real time lyrics, or explore open artist databases and show results in gui. This is done by a lot of free addon freely downlodable.

I dont know NOTHING about the work it needs to do all this on Moode (that i actually use because i think it 'sounds' better than Kodi) , but i think it would be great if Moode could show some other data when listening music.

I dont know also, if this would be useful to all the other users, or if it could push Moode unstable or damage sound quality in anyway, so please, consider my opinion just as a wish from one that LOVE all the work behind Moode and the sound that cames from it, but ignore anything about how it works inside. thank you

Hi Tim, is there any chance that Moode 8.xx comes with a lyrics display? Embedding something like OSDlyrics would be a nice to have.

It's on the TODO list for moOde 8 series but the issue with song lyrics in general is that lyrics databases are typically not Open Source. I'll look the OSDlyrics repo.
