Description Adam Jimerson 2009-08-09 17:36:33 UTC
Version:           2.1.1 (using 4.3.00 (KDE 4.3.0) "release 152", KDE:KDE4:Factory:Desktop / openSUSE_11.1)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.27.25-0.1-default

Due to an update in lyricwiki's API the script used by Amarok to fetch the lyrics doesn't already work.  Instead you get an error like this

Unfortunately, due to licensing restrictions from some of the major music publishers we can no longer return lyrics through the LyricWiki API (where this application gets some or all of its lyrics).

The lyrics for this song can be found at the following URL:
http://lyricwiki.org/Dream_Theater:The_Count_Of_Tuscany

<a href='http://lyricwiki.org/Dream_Theater:The_Count_Of_Tuscany'>Dream Theater:The Count Of Tuscany</a>


(Please note: this is not the fault of the developer who created this application, but is a restriction imposed by the music publishers themselves.).

I'm sure you are already aware of this, just figured I should open a bug report just in case and hope that you will be able to find a way around this, weather it is to get lyrics from someone else or what.
