Just for fun, a lyric retriever in the command-line interpreter (CLI).

It fetches lyrics of current song playing in CMus or directly typed in the terminal.

A few comments about the figure above:

  • tmux session with two panes and status bar

  • the status bar displays the current song with the same script used by cmus-lyrics

  • there is an alias in the corresponding BASH profile to call cmus-lyrics
