How to Find the Name or Title of a Song by Lyrics
Anyway, so if you know some of the lyrics for the song you’re looking for, you can try out a few of these lyric search engines to try and find the band or song name. Actually, there are quite a few of them out there, but only a few really have large databases of song lyrics. Here are some them websites :
1. Search Lyrics – This site also has some non-English lyrics and you can translate any of the English lyrics to another language on the lyric pages. Get Lyrical finds an exact match for your lyrics whereas Search Lyrics searches for those words anywhere in a particular song and will return a result even if the words are all not together.
3. LyricsFly – Make sure you click on Lyrics first and then perform a search.
The other web sites that I tried did not work good for song lyrics and so I’m not going to mention them here. If you know of any other lyric search engines, post a comment!
