Listening to all your favorite Spotify songs is one thing. Being able to sing to them correctly is another. It seems like the music company is aware of this, as it now has lyrics for all tracks featured in its library. 

Spotify partnered with Musixmatch to make this possible after many members requested the functionality. It may mean that everyone who searches for lyrics on YouTube music videos will no longer need to. It also means your shower-singing sessions will sound a whole lot better.

How to access lyrics on Spotify

Whether you have the free or Premium version of Spotify on your phone, PC, or TV, you’ll have access to the Lyrics. Let’s take a quick look at how you can open it for any songs you enjoy.

Mobile app

  • While on a song, tap on “Now Playing View”
  • When the song is playing, scroll to the bottom
  • Lyrics will be visible, moving to the words of the song
