Johannesburg, 10 June 2020: We know you love singing along to your favourite songs. Since January 2020, we’ve seen a 33% rise in music fans using Deezer’s lyric feature worldwide. However, not everyone has had the full karaoke experience and we think you deserve the best – no matter what package you’re on. So, from today, our free subscribers can enjoy lyrics on their computer.
Free users have been enjoying lyrics on their mobile for a while, including the ability to cast to your TV. However, we’re now the only streaming service to offer real time lyrics to free users on both mobile and desktop.
So, are you ready to kick-start your karaoke party? Simply tap the mic symbol under the name of the track you’re playing. The lyrics will appear on the screen and play in real time, so you won’t miss a beat.
“It’s been great to see a growing interest in our lyrics button. I’m really pleased that our free users can now enjoy using lyrics on multiple devices. Go ahead and share your screen on your next Zoom call for some extra karaoke fun!” said Deezer’s VP of Product, Benoit Terpereau.
Free users can head over to the desktop app or visit www.deezer.com to try the new lyrics feature out. Deezer’s karaoke playlist is a great place to start!
