    Adding Lyrics

    Hello, I'm trying to figure out how to add lyrics after ripping a CD. I was able to get into the metadata, and add 'lyrics' as a new category, but when I cut and paste the lyrics it will only ever paste the first line. So I'm left with either cutting and pasting each line of the lyrics individually, or typing it out manually. Surely there has to be an easier way to add lyrics? Is anyone else having this issue, and can anyone help?? It would certainly be much appreciated. I'm 3500 CDs behind, lol, so any tips at all would be fantastic.

    Thanks!

    In the latest versions, Lyrics in 'Edit Tags' is multi-line edit box.

      Thank you so much for the reply! Is that supposed to be in the Tags tab 'metadata for all tracks' box? I can't find any 'edit tags' link anywhere, but I can add my own tags to the metadata. Is that what I should be doing?

      **edit** I went into the 'Tags' tab and made a new tag for lyrics. I tried to cut and paste again, but the same problem arose. Only the first word will paste. It also won't allow skipping lines, so even when written out in full, it's all just one long sentence. HELP! There must be a simpler way to add lyrics, no?
