How to Read Lyrics in Winamp or Windows Media Player

Love to sing along with your MP3s? Don’t know the lyrics? then you need not fret because Lyrics Plugin is here! Once installed, the plugin automatically retrieves the lyrics whenever you play a song and shows it in the player itself. The plugin uses the ID3 data of the song to retrieve the lyrics, no 1D3 data – no lyrics, but you can always write your own lyrics.

Sadly, the plugin is only available for Winamp and Windows Media Player. For those using iTunes or Foobar (my favorite), go search for something else.

    I use Evil Lyrics – which is another lyrics plugin :) Its pretty lightweight which I love as I run everything from a 3year old laptop and need everything to skimp on memory ^^

    I did use Evil Lyrics too earlier, but for some reason I didnt seem to find lyrics for most of my songs, and then I decided to ditch winamp as well.. So just running on WMP right now
