Google is working to close the feature gap between YouTube Music and its most popular rivals\u2014Spotify and Apple Music. Now you can directly share lyrics from the YouTube Music app. Here\u2019s how.<\/h2>\n

Lyric sharing is a feature that has long been available on Spotify and Apple Music, making it possible to share pertinent lyrics on social media and elsewhere. Not only does this help with music discovery among influencers\u2019 fans, but it also raises awareness of the music service being used. YouTube Music appears to be taking a page out of Spotify\u2019s book by branding lyrics shared in this manner.<\/p>\n

How to Share Lyrics on YouTube Music<\/h4>\n

The new feature<\/a> only shows up when you\u2019re on the lyrics tab directly reading along with the song. From there, a new \u2018Share\u2019 button will pop up allowing you to select the lines you want to share. Once selected, tapping \u2018Next\u2019 takes you to a customization page where you can change the background color and preview what the share card will look like on social media. The share card includes the album artwork, song name, artist, and a small YouTube Music logo.<\/p>\n

Hitting the \u2018Share\u2019 button will post the lyrics card directly to apps like Instagram, save it to your gallery as an image, or send it through another supported app. The feature appears to be rolling out to users as a server-side update\u2014so not everyone may have access yet. According to the redditor who originally spotted the feature, their YouTube Music app version is 8.15.51 on Android.<\/p>\n

\u2018Fan-led streaming<\/a>\u2019 is one of the three main pathways for music discovery alongside editorial curation and algorithmic recommendations. Sharing lyrics creates organic opportunities for fans of influencers to discover new music they might not have seen before. Now YouTube Music users can get in on the action.<\/p>\n<\/section><\/div>\n
