Get Song Lyrics Added to Your YouTube Videos

GeekSugar — Sun, 23 Mar 2008 07:10:26 PDT

I'm a sucker for listening to all my new favorite songs on YouTube, so when I saw this neat tip on Lifehacker, I wanted to share it with all of you! To get started you'll need Firefox and this Greasemonkey extension. The Googlesystem Blog explains that this Greasemonkey script creates a section titled "lyrics" below the video's description, and will display them when expanded (you'll notice different lyrics services for the song). So now when you see Scarlett Johansson's new music video, you'll be able to sing along!

Misunderstood Lyrics

GiggleSugar — Tue, 22 May 2007 02:00:00 PDT

You know you've done it. You're listening to a song, you have no idea what's being sung, but later as you sing it to yourself you realize you've supplied some creative lyrics. Classic example? "Blinded By the Light," which, if you believed everyone who sang it, includes the line "Wrapped up like a douche." Here's a heavy metal example. I've never heard of Children of Bodom, but a couple fans have, and this is what they came up with.

(Thanks, Say No To Crack, and Team Twelve's Steve-O Five and Mike Seven, whoever you are!)

Katy Perry Wears Skintight Costume - And Sings About Russell? - At Grammys

Molly Goodson — Sun, 12 Feb 2012 20:42:25 PST

Katy Perry's outfit left very little to the imagination as she hit the stage at the Grammys this evening. A Katy Perry impostor kicked off the performance pretending to be Katy singing "ET," before the real pop star emerged to debut her new single, "Part of Me," wearing a latex superhero-esque costume that clung to all her curves. The latter track is being included on the extended re-release of her album Teenage Dream, which means it's not a totally new song, but she did change the lyrics - perhaps to send a message to ex Russell Brand for the award show? Katy apparently rewrote a portion of the song recently to say: "You can keep the diamond ring/It don't mean nothing anyway/In fact you can keep everything/Yeah, yeah, except for me." Katy and Russell's divorce was finalized last week, just about a month after they initially announced their split. Do you think Katy was singing about Russell tonight?

Katy's red carpet dress landed her on Fab's best dressed at the Grammy Awards poll so vote in that and all their fashion and beauty polls!

What Your Music Says About Your Personality

TresSugar — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 16:00:00 PST

This Sunday is the Grammy Awards, and while some may think music is just entertainment, it may say more about who you are than you think. One glimpse at the top-25 tracks in your iTunes can tell a lot about you. Introversion and extroversion are perhaps the two characteristics that most affect what music people tune into. Though both temperaments will roll - or rock - with their moods and activities, extroverts are more likely to reach for upbeat music that's heavy on vocals while introverts gravitate toward slower tunes with complex movements.

One surprise is that there's no connection between the abrasive lyrics common in rap and heavy metal and aggressive or sexual behavior. Listeners of heavy metal, particularly, have shown to be sensitive and gentle souls. In fact, they have a lot in common with classical music lovers. They're both creative, easy-going, and introverted.

Whether you listen to pop and rap or indie and classical, see what it says about you.
