Soundcloud -how to get lyrics to show while playing

Post by Susanstunes » Thu May 24, 2018 1:45 pm

Hi everyone,
When I play my songs with lyrics at Soundcloud, the lyrics do not pop up, UNLESS I forward a specific track to, say, the forum or to someone else- THEN they do.
I asked the Q/A section of SC and did not get a work around. Maybe you have to upgrade your subscription service...?
Anyone know?

Thanks!
Susan

When you click onto the title of an individual track, it should take you to the separate page for just that piece.
There - if you haven't already - use the edit option to upload your lyrics/photo/description/genre, etc.
The lyrics would then appear under the scroll-down menu "show more".
I don't think you can see lyrics on the homepage - only for the individual one.
Hope that helps.

Hi Peter,

That did work. Thanks! I always click right on the "play" button, and didn't know about clicking on the title.
Cheers, Susan
