What is Lyricue?
Lyricue is free and open-source application that is used to edit/display song lyrics and passages of text along with images and videos on a second screen/projector. It was designed for use at live events such as church services, concerts and seminars.
Why use lyricue?
With Lyricue you are not restricted to setting everything up before the event as you can add, remove and change songs on the fly.
You can edit a song while it is up on the screen and quickly show your changes (good for when you notice a misspelling or the singers decide to change the words on you)
You can even type up notes directly to the screen or quickly display a bible verse at an instants notice.
Updated packages for Ubuntu are available from the package archive at https://code.launchpad.net/~chris-debenham/+archive/ubuntu/lyricue
Source packages are now downloadable directly from github at https://github.com/cjd/lyricue/releases
At this point most of the basic functionality is implemented such as quick controls, viewing playlists, adding/removing songs from playlists, adding bible verses (but with no page splitting as yet) and even quick access to putting text on the screen or OSD.
Download it now and let me know how it goes 🙂

I haven’t gotten around to updating the website in a long time – but be assured that progress is happening 🙂
Lyricue 3.7.2 was the last release of the 3.x series and was released in Feb 2015.
Lyricue 4.0.4 is the first release of the 4.x series and is available in the Ubuntu repository now.
Lyricue 4.x moves lyricue from using the old GTK2 libraries to handle the interface to using GTK3 instead.
Precue (the web-based frontend to Lyricue) has been updated to version 2.0
