As a Spanish native speaker, I find myself often checking lyrics for my favorite songs in English. But even if your mother tongue is English, there are always certain words you don’t quite understand – because the background drums are too loud, or the singer has a strange accent, or they simply made the word up.

Luckily most media players today have a special plug-in, created precisely to search the web and retrieve the lyrics for whatever song you’re currently playing. So if you ever wonder what the heck they’re saying in any specific song, here’s a list of a few lyrics plug-ins you can use with a bunch of popular media players:

• Is Winamp your media player of choice? You should use Lyrics Plugin for Winamp
• For those who use iTunes, here's iTunes Lyrics Importer
• If you use Windows Media Player, you need Lyrics Plugin for Windows Media Player
• If you prefer Spotify, then you should get ListDJ
