[QUOTE="mackey, post: 218431, member: 20257"] Yup, when there is multiple apostrophes (and possible other weird symbols) it is due to the source which contain the original lyric. When the lyric engine fetches a lyric it tries to fix and shine up the lyric as good as possible. E.g. some sites have a ? instead of an ' (apostrophe), accordingly the engine translates ?m to 'm, so e.g. "I'm" is shown correctly. There are a bunch of such conversions, that tries to modify the lyric from the original source to become easier to read. But unfortunately not all mess ups from the source can be fixed in that manner. When you see one of such lyrics, you will have to fix it manually, search for a new lyric from one of the other sources (using the 'Find lyric' dialogue), or just let it be. However if you find a lyric which you might believe could be made prettier, please send me the artist, title and site name, and I'll see if another replace argument could shine up the lyric. Yes, you can delete all lyric entries by AC simple by highlighting the artist "AC" in the combobox on the lyric database page and press the delete button. The same procedure can natural be performed with DC. cheers [/QUOTE]
