For different languages, the guidelines for writing lyrics differ. Below are some guidelines for English lyric writing.
As per recommendation, the application recommends that you use the Edit window of the Musixmatch Studio to transcribe your music.
1) Listen to the song properly from a reliable source with correct lyrics.
2) Avoid copy-pasting and plagiarism from others’ sites.
3) The only lyrics that you are supposed to add are those which you’ve written yourself.
Transcribe each and every word – if a singer has sung something three times, write it thrice as well. As an example:
Wrong:
La La (x2)
Right:
La La
La La
4) Include the nitty gritties as well such as intro, names etc.
5) Do not label your song unless you are tagging the artist.
6) Transcribe in native languages of the songs.
