I will miss Harmonic. It was the best app of its kind. It will be dearly missed :(.
Hope you can bring it back to life, until that day, RIP Harmonic.

FUCK THE RIAA/MPAA

Hi there, I just got Harmonic and love the app, but too bad about the issues you’re having with the Lyricwiki API and licensing. Most of the songs I get only get the first few lines. I’d like to suggest displaying a small icon or link next to the title of the song that goes to the URL of the song in LyricWiki. This would really make the app much more useful. Right now, if I get a partial lyrics, I have to clear the lyrics, then click on the google search link and click on a result to get lyrics from some other site. It’d be nice if I could just click once on this icon and jump to the actual page on LyricWiki to see all the lyrics even when they’re not all downloaded.

Hi all. Get Lyrical will/does work!!! It will search for the lyrics of every song in your iTunes library and tag them to the song and then harmonic can see them – or get lyrical can too for that matter. Nice work guys. When I was growing up I never really knew exactly what the words were to songs. It’s a brave new world now…

I just read your comment about the licensing issues from the record companies, que lastima!! Really enjoyed your widget up to now.

Perhaps you could adjust the widget to leave the search option only as I find that I can get the lyrics in any case on webpages that have them for whatever reason. Would that be a license issue for you? It appears that would not work for all users but it could be a partial/temporary solution?

It’s started kind of working again. Now, we get the first paragraph of lyrics with [...] attached to the bottom. Progress, I think.

Is there any news on the updating of Harmonic to get data from the new LyricWiki api?
