      If an incorrect album cover is shown it's simple to change it, I just wish there was more control over what song lyrics are displayed. As an example, there is an old 50's rock 'n' roll song called "My Babe" which was recorded by countless people, I have 5 versions in my collection. But whenever I play any of them it displays the lyrics to Led Zep's "Kashmir" for some bizarre reason. Also noticed on a few occasions it's managed to display lyrics when playing an instrumental track! Or is there more control available, but I just haven't found it yet?

        @stevie-57 If lyrics are added to the song file in Strawberry's tag editor, the Context Pane will show them by default. If the Lyrics tag is empty, lyrics will be fetched from the internet.

        I use this as a workaround when the lyrics sources fetch inaccurate info. Sometimes, as in your case, the error seems really random. I don't know what's going on!

        You'll have to find your own lyrics wherever to add them to the song file. To open the editor, right click on the song and select "Edit track information". In the editor, click on the "Lyrics" tab and paste your lyrics there.

          @silver-sun Thank you so much, I thought there would probably be a way of doing it, just that I couldn't find it for some reason. Not sure why not, must have been half asleep at the time. Thanks again, much appreciated
