a lot of people like to read the lyrics while they listen to music. the problem however is that it's very hard to find the sites that have complete album lyrics on the same page and not a new page for every song. its a real pain in the ass having to open new tab for every song.
so my idea is this site already has a database with artists, albums etc so why not expand it with album lyrics?

The problem is "copyright"... Anyway on the artist page usually you can find the link with the official website and find there the complete lyrics

Indeed Andrea, and the music industry is turning its focus on the many lyric sites which exist on the web.

Yep, it's a hassle. For groups that don't print their lyrics in the CD insert, I usually copy and paste them from their website into Wordpad and print them off. That way I don't have to turn on the computer to read the lyrics.

May I refer you to my thread about the lyrics plug-in for Winamp in the Tech Talk forum?

Could we perhaps have a forum where we discuss the meanings of songs (different from the non-music prog lounge - a special place), which would include both lyrics and music and how they relate to create a bigger meaning, without actually posting the lyrics.
 
The biggest problem, of course, would be policing it to make sure that no one actually posts the lyrics and infringes copyright.
