Adding lyrics from over 4,000 publishers to Google’s search results and within Google Play Music, LyricFind now provides licensing for lyrics displayed in Google’s search results as well as in the music app. [![image from www.lyricfind.com](http://hypebot.typepad.com/.a/6a00d83451b36c69e201b7c8740c5f970b-350wi "image from www.lyricfind.com")](http://hypebot.typepad.com/.a/6a00d83451b36c69e201b7c8740c5f970b-popup?ref=hypebot.com)LyricFind music publishers come from 100 countries and include the majors: Universal Music Publishing Group, Sony/ATV, Warner/Chappell Music Publishing and Kobalt. For now, the Google integration is US only. LyricFind collects royalties for songwriters and rightsholders, while fostering deeper fan engagement. “We’re happy to expand the depth and quality of lyrics available on Google’s services,” says LyricFind CEO Darryl Ballantyne. “We’re working together to make lyrics available to a larger audience in a faster and more efficient way.”
