            Bug ID: 455937
           Summary: Lyrics no longer available from lyricwiki
           Product: amarok
           Version: 2.9.0
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Context View/Lyrics
          Assignee: amarok-bugs-dist@kde.org
          Reporter: jhtrees99@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: kf5

SUMMARY
I added some mp3 files to my collection, and noticed that the lyrics tab always
showed a "Lyrics: Fetch error" message. It seems that the lyrics are obtained
from lyricwiki/fandom web site. That site has now closed for good though.
Some other site needs to be used, although I don't know how to configure this
in Amarok. (I am thinking of sites such as www.lyrics.com or (since I'm in the
UK) lyrics.doheth.co.uk).


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add a new mp3 file to collection (not necessarily a recent song)
2. configure Amarok to show the lyrics
3. Play the song

OBSERVED RESULT
The above error is shown - no lyrics.

EXPECTED RESULT
Where possible, lyrics should be shown.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: (Fedora 36)
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.94.0
Qt Version: 5.15.3 (Qt6 - 6.3.0)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The current version of Amarok still shows under 'Settings' specific settings
for LyricWiki, as well as the lyricwiki script which seems to be enabled by
default. These too need to be removed or replaced.
