I have received several emails from our user community regarding this message returned while using the mp3-cms to fetch song lyrics..
Code: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/Bad_Religion:All_Good_Soldiers
<a href='http://lyricwiki.org/Bad_Religion:All_Good_Soldiers'>Bad Religion:All Good Soldiers</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.)
After some conversation with the LyricWiki team, it appears that the RIAA has determined that song lyrics are an un-tapped revenue stream and they have imposed a royalty model for applications which display song lyrics.
It looks like we will have no other choice but to go back to screen scraping for lyrics. This is the main reason I try to never rely on APIs because it always seems like when a good one comes along it's nothing more than a bait and switch tactic that will eventually try to bleed you once you've become dependent on it.
When I get some time, I will start working on a scaping library for fetching lyrics from other sources.
Sorry for the inconvenience,
