Gracenote Powered Lyrics 2 Hits The App Store - Win One Of Four Promo Codes
October 26, 2009
Tarento Software recently released the second version of their highly controversial lyrics finding iPhone and iPod touch app titled Lyrics 2. Some of you may recall that the original version of Lyrics was one of the first iPhone apps to contain an Easter egg, one which allowed users to turn off the built-in profanity filter. It probably goes without saying that Apple requested the app to be removed and modified after word of this simple workaround spread across the Internet. Instead of re-releasing the app without the workaround, the developers chose to redo the app entirely and wait for iPhone OS 3.0 to hit so they could do away with the profanity filter. Lyrics 2 is now available as a result of all of this.
Lyrics 2 features a relatively simple interface that gives you quick access to lyrics for nearly any song you can think of. Upon first launching the app, you are presented with the song you are currently listening to along with the ability to view lyrics for songs you have recently listened to. You can also search for lyrics by artist or song, or just check out lyrics for popular songs via the Featured tab. All of the lyrics within Lyrics 2 are "official" and provided by Gracenote. The app does require an Internet connection to acquire lyrics from Gracenote's servers.
