There’s no doubt in it that iTunes is one of the Apple’s finest products. Along with media playback, transferring data between your computer and iPhone, iTunes also offers a powerful music management system. If you don’t want to use TidyTag and have a lot of free time (as it can be quite time consuming), you can use iTunes to add lyrics to any song. Here’s how that can be done.

Step 1 Open iTunes and Go to “My Music”

Run the iTunes software on your computer and click on “My Music”. After that, select the “Songs” option from the left side panel that will show a list of all your songs.

After discussing the steps to add lyrics to songs using iTunes, here are some of the pros and cons:

Pros:

  • The method is straightforward and easy.
  • You can select the lyrics from any source of your choice.
  • The lyrics are saved in iTunes and can be accessed across different devices.

Cons:

  • You need to add lyrics individually to every single song on the list.
  • The process takes a lot of time.
  • There’s no way to verify the authenticity of the lyrics.

Conclusion

It is very helpful to have the lyrics of songs in order to fully understand the essence of music. Almost no audio file comes with lyrics as a part of it. However, you can add them to the files by yourself. That can be done manually but TidyTag is the easiest solution for that.

If you have a large music library to which you need to add tags and lyrics, you can use TidyTag. It makes the process super easy and fun. If you do not want to install it, you can use Apple’s iTunes app to do the same but it will take too much time and effort.
