The Music Network unveils exclusive lyric charts

LyricFind, the world’s largest lyric licensing service, is launching a LyricFind Australia chart exclusively on The Music Network.

The Music Network’s weekly LyricFind Australia chart takes data from their billions of lyric displays and ranks the top trending lyrics. The chart is segmented to just Australian users and highlights the most popular current lyric searches.

LyricFind’s data, provided by over 4,000 publishers, is utilised by more than 100 services, including Google, Amazon, Pandora, Deezer, Shazam, Microsoft, SoundHound, iHeartRadio, and many others.

"We’re very excited to launch the LyricFind charts in Australia exclusively on The Music Network," said LyricFind CEO Darryl Ballantyne. "Australia is a vibrant music market that has created some of the brightest breakout stars of the music world. By using our Lyrics data we’re confident we can shine a light on more future hit artists and records coming out of the region."

LyricFind is one of the tech industry’s largest advocates of legal digital content. Most recently it partnered with Google to offer a featured placement for lyrics in search results and within Google Play Music. The move looks to cut out many third party websites which may be infringing copyright.

The LyricFind Australia chart is the latest to be added to a list of 32 airplay, sales and streaming charts currently hosted by The Music Network.

The charts are available in TMN’s easy-to-access portal for Charts Pro subscribers at www.themusicnetwork.com/charts
