Display lyrics on your iPod

were do you go on the ipod to view the lyrics (i have a ipod 5g)

iStar Composer is much more than a program to "fetch lyrics". In fact, that is a small part of the programs purpose. iStar Composer allows the synchronization of lyrics, lecture notes, podcast text, foreign language translation, and many more through a very easy to use interface. Once you have the text synced how you want it, you export the song to iTunes and sync it to your ipod. The lyrics will play synchronized full screen (best for iPod w/ video support). Check it out, I think you will enjoy it. Ben

ummm, this is just for the nano right? cus u can read lyrics well listening to the 5G already...

pearllyrics is tremendous - downloaded while you can. The real question for me is how do I get the lyrics form iTunes onto my 3g iPod (or for that matter any iPod before the nano)? I know you can use notes for this, but that is a pain on so many levels. I want to be able to access the lyrics directly form the Now Playing screen. Any ideas?

wow. been using pearlyrics for quite a long time now and almost all 5600+ songs have lyrics. what a bunch of douchebags.

um, yeah...pearLyrics...works great...cheap as free.

UPDATE! As of dec 6th apple.com has taken down a lot of the lyric fetching widgets, appearently the record companies didn't much appreciate them because they send the author of pearlyrics a cease and decist letter. this is a shame because these widgets are awesome and extremely useful. link to developer's site: http://www.pearworks.com/pages/pearLyrics.html **maybe this should be its own post on the blog--pretty terrible news to me** ps. even though neither the apple nor developer's website has the widget available for download some other sites haven't been so quick to remove it--better snatch this up while you can! you can find the widget/app here: http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/18354 pps. widget is obviously compatible with tiger but there is also works as a regular app for older versions of osx.

pearLyrics was shot down by Warner Music: http://www.pearworks.com/pages/pearLyrics.html Praise the music industry for their wise and consumer friendly decisions :(

is this post for reals? instead of paying $30 to manually enter lyrics for every song, i use the pearlyrics widget to automatically look up and save lyrics to whatever song is playing in my itunes. granted it isn't 100% but it is pretty good at what it does (it's only failed me with obscure indie bands and podcasts). even if i'd want to go the manaul route, i just 'ctrl+click' any song in itunes, select 'get info' and hit the lyrics tab to copy paste any text. both of these methods work fine to view lyrics on my brand new 5g ipod. thanks for the blog.
