Some lyrics are wrong #383

Some lyrics are wrong and does not fit with the song at all.

You can search lyrics manually or click Lyrics -> Wrong Lyrics to remove the wrong one.

But there are typos or wrong words and then it is useless to delete the whole lyric.

You can edit the lyrics file yourself. Click Lyrics -> Show In Finder.

I already tried this but it is still showing the wrong lyric.

Restart LyricsX so it can load the latest version from disk.

Note LyricsX is not a lyrics service provider like Musixmatch. It's just a tool which "auto search and download lyrics from the internet, and displays them". LyricsX does't own these lyrics. You can't upload lyrics or report wrong lyrics because LyricsX doesn't have a centralized server. When you click "Wrong Lyrics", LyricsX merely remove it from your disk.

This works!

I understand this but then the lyrics that LyricsX is using (or downloading) are wrong. This is not your fault, but the fault of the platform which is providing the lyrics.

You probably want to enable "Strict Search" in preferences. It prevent LyricsX from loading obviously wrong lyrics.
