Hello people,
I am writing this after at least 2 weeks of fiddling with the idea of improving the lyrics retrieval system of music players. I always wanted to understand what the lyrics of the singers(mostly Michael Jackson, rap-music) because frankly i dont understand a word of it yet i love it and to know the lyrics I always have to use Google search engine to ensure that "I get the lyrics" even if it is proprietary(coz there are sites where users can submit their own understanding of the lyrics).In Amarok there is a feature for lyrics but I do not get the lyrics for every song I play (even if they have the correct metadata ie the album,title,artist and that stuff). Instead of diving in into Amarok Codebase, I rather chose to go for some lightweight small media player (as I am a novice to source-editing) .

I know that this does not directly concern KDE(but amarok lyrics is not superior), Can somebody tell me how to go about improving the lyrics retrieval system of any music player; as amarok too uses the same approach. Using the BeautifulSoup library I can retrieve the lyrics from the HTML source of the website; does anyone have some brighter Ideas?
