[All Platforms][Other] Romanized Lyrics for Songs Not In Latin Alphabet

[amknana12]

Recently, Spotify (at least in my iOS app) has added a very helpful feature which is lyrics. It finally collaborated with Musixmatch (thanks God why haven't you done this sooner).

Problem is, I am an Indonesian listener who is familiar with Latin alphabet. I loved many Asian songs, which we know, are not written in language using those Latin alphabets, namely K-Pop, J-Pop, or you name it. Those songs' lyrics are still shown in their original alphabet (K-Pop in hangeul, J-Pop in kanji and hiragana, etc). Usually, foreign listeners are able to sing-a-long by looking at the romanization version.

Now I know that Musixmatch indeed does not have that romanization lyrics, but Genius does and I know Spotify has partnership too with Genius, I guess? So, why not give a choice for listeners to choose between Genius or Musixmatch?

TL;DR:

1. We want romanized lyrics to Asian songs or any songs not using Latin alphabet

2. Give options for Spotify listeners to choose which version to show

3. If Spotify can no longer show Genius' service, push Musixmatch so that they make romanized lyrics available.

Sincerely,

Global Spotify member.

[UPDATE]
A comment below notified me that Musixmatch has provided options for translations and indeed they are now shown in Spotity. I see this as a nice improvement! However, what we wanted is a romanized version of the original language so we can do sing-along 😞 Please make this happen!

well its maybe we need short of configuration to change the japanese or korean song with romanized version of lyrics, it's gonna help all of us to sing along with the simple lyrics

ada indonesia coy

but I agree that we need that feature asap (heck, the windows spotify even lagged behind, not having a translation option)

1. We need this feature and it shouldn't be too hard to implement because many songs have romaji built into musixmatch where Spotify takes the regular lyrics from anyway.

just implement this like In musixmatch a selector from the available translations / romaji

[PPLily]

It will be good if there is a romanized lyrics for japanese song so that we can sing along easily.

Have the option to change in romaji for the lyrics for jpop so we can still have lyrics for the song even if we cant read japanese

[Yezo]

Yep, I came here to ask this. I need romanization to sing the songs I like... Pls...

[Kagami1999]

You can use "moegi spotify github" extension to get romaji lyrics (Cyrylic/Korea/Jap/China) on the Web version of spotify

Musixmatch app for android or ios versions (works for Korea/China/Japan)

I hope there'll be an update for this soon. It's hard switching browser for a romanized lyrics.

I want to be able to read also the lyrics of song written with ideograms without knowing their alphabet. I want the possibility to swap between the first and the second photo
