Find the lyrics of any given song using the power of scraping!

# findthelyrics
NPM package to find lyrics to any given song.

[NPMJS](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@brandond/findthelyrics) Package | [Github](https://github.com/brandon-doornbos/findthelyrics) Repo

# Disclaimer 
Although the code is not licensed, the lyrics are highly likely to be licensed by the respective record label.

To programmatically check the record label of the song, use [Discogs API](https://www.discogs.com/developers/).

I take no responsibility for the actions used with the code.

## How is it done?
It scrapes Genius to find the lyrics.

If the scraper fails on Genius, it falls back to MusixMatch.

## Sample Code

This code gets the lyrics of ``I Just Wanna Shine`` by ``Fitz and The Tantrums``.

```js
import { find_lyrics } from "@brandond/findthelyrics";

const lyrics = await find_lyrics("Fitz and The Tantrums I Just Wanna Shine");
if (lyrics instanceof Error) {
    console.error(lyrics);
} else {
    console.log(lyrics);
    // [Chorus]
    // I just wanna shine like the sun when it comes up
    // Run the city from the rooftops
    // 'Cause today’s gonna be my day
    // I just wanna climb to the top of a mountain
    // Standing tall when I'm howlin'
    // ...
}
```
