Hi Everyone
Since Wikipedia page can't have copyrighted content I try and make music pages better by linking to copyright compliant sites that would other wise have that content on the Wikipedia page.
Lyrics - The only reason the lyrics are not on the song's Wikipedia's page is because of Copyright laws. Of course people would like to see the lyrics on a song's Wikipedia's page. Please consider all the Wikipedia song pages of Public Domain songs have the lyrics on the song's Wikipedia page. Examples http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cotton-Eyed_Joe http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danny_Boy etc. So its a given that people want to see lyrics. The only reason the lyrics are not posted on the pages I link from are because of copyright issues. So the next best thing is to link to a copyright compliant lyric page*.
Music Videos - I also post links to the Official Music Videos for the same reasons as the post to lyrics. You can listen to Public Domain songs on Wikipedia. Go here and press the "play" button on any song http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Sound/list People want to hear the song on a Wikipedia song page, but because of Copyright issues they can't. So the next best thing would be to link to a Copyright complaint website**.
- The lyric pages I link to are powered by Lyricfind a legal lyric aggregator you can read more about them here http://www.lyricfind.com/about-lyricfind/ - Please look below the the last line of the lyrics and you will see the credits and a link to lyricfind
