What is the crowd's opinion of Musixmatch?

From 3.5 billion comments

Many tracks don't have lyrics, especially from the smaller creators. Good way of knowing if a song have them, is checking it on musixmatch.com, because that's where Tidal gets them

Greetings A, This was interesting, and I did a bit more checking around. I finally got a chance to listen to the song we are checking out, and it is formally called, “Invocation Song”. Through a lyric engine, here’s what I found:

<strong>Invocation To The Beast</strong> (By Debbie Harry, and ??) (Via musixmatch.com)

(Click the Title Link to hear the song on YouTube.

Below are the published lyrics, just cut & pasted here:

“Whatchyou doin' there?

Come here

Whatchyou doin' there?

Come out of ...(too low to hear)

Speaking in tongues/ancient language

Active, matrix, time has come ...(too low to hear)

Whatchyou doin' there?

Come here

Whatchyou doin' there?

Follow the d...

That which is above

Is also that

Which is below

Speaking in tongues/ancient language again

As you can see, Debbie never technically translated the lyrics; However, when you play the song on Youtube, the lyrics at the time of “00.57” you can definitely hear her singing the Sanskrit word, “Prithivi” (Earth). So it sounds like it’s one of the prayers affiliated with one of the god/desses of the Hindu religion. (Not Enochian).

I’ve done a lot of various mantras for beings such as Lakshmi, Shiva, Vishnu, and it reminds me greatly of those songs, although this is one I haven’t heard before.

The reason I feel this is on the right track, is that Debbie also released an song called, “Invocation to Papa Legba”, which is really great.

I know that Gary “Valentine“ Lachman (original Blondie member) wrote a lot abou Blondie’s involvement in the occult, so it seems these songs come from the time of their mystical/magickal explorations.

Of course, I’m waiting to hear a response back from Gary Lachman, to see if he can elucidate more details regarding this interesting thread. Blessings, ~V~

I'm really sorry to piggyback on your comments, but I am seeing what seems like serious bugs in the Desktop client and no one at Spotify seems to care. I know it isn't your job to be support, but Spotify's support emails just keep emailing me canned responses that clearly didn't read any of what I said. I can't even get a confirmation that the bugs I'm seeing exist, but maybe if I say it right to a dev something more will come of it.

When you edit or sync lyrics in the Spotify desktop app, and submit them to MusixMatch, they save, and even display in Spotify, but only after multiple attempts. What's more is, when they finally do save, they don't show up on Musixmatch.com. Are there known bugs with this service at the moment?

I tweeted @SpotifyCares and got this as a response: "go from http://musixmatch.com and add all lyrics you want!"

I emailed spotify support and got this as a response: "This seems like a great idea. We're always looking to improve Spotify in any way we can. We can’t say now if or when any specific release with this will be out, but as soon as we've got something to announce, we'll let everyone know on the Spotify blog."

Great idea? I'm emailing asking if there's a bug. As in literally, "Is this a bug?". And the response is "Great idea!". I'm trying so hard to report a bug, yet no one at Spotify seems to want to even acknowledge It's a bug. I'm just getting canned responses. Again, sorry to piggyback on these comments, but I'd love to contribute more lyrics but I'm about ready to go out of my mind.

Audio Speed changer is an awesome app for learning songs. http://musixmatch.com/ Has an android app with an amazing player and great SHazam/ Lyric finding capability. It resembles Play Music too! ES file Explorer also has a great media player!

You didn't give a link to the song, or a video on youtube that has it, so that doesn't much help, but have you already tried using apps such as Shazam, SoundHound, or musiXmatch to identify it?
