How to Instantly Find Songs by Lyrics on Your Amazon Echo

Ever hear a song with lyrics stuck in your head but no idea of the title or artist? Google helps, but if you own an Amazon Echo, Alexa makes it even simpler—no phone or browser needed.

This built-in feature, recently highlighted by Lifehacker, lets you search songs directly by lyrics. Just use the voice command “Alexa, what's the song going??” after reciting or humming the snippet.

If Alexa identifies it, she'll share the song title, artist, and start playing it immediately.
