I'm looking for a site that is specially made for passing songs on - that is, it displays all the lyrics and guitar chords and music in some form and is desigend to learn songs from. Also that is dedicated to songs of struggle, social comment, social change or philosophy and idealsim. If one doesn't exist, I would like to create one. Of course, there are undoubtedly thousands of such songs in the DT but it is an archive not a songbook and they're all jumbled up with songs about bloody sailing and love ;)

Hi ..

It's not exactly what you are looking for but the Matt McGinn website has some song lyrics with musical chords, and there is more to come.

Thanks. It's a good site. Peter Hicks' site (can't remember the address right now) also has some as does my site http://paulspencer.4t.com, which only has my songs but also has a link to Peter's site.

It's the kind of thing I'm looking for only with LOTS of songs.

Create your site, Clean Supper.

There are, of course, sites that deal with various parts of what you query. Intelligent use of the major search engines will find them.

There are none that do exactly what you suggest. Build the site, and give us a link when it's half done.

Look forward to seeing what you come up with

I think that's the option isn't it. Right. It might be hosted on a free spot with ads for a while, like my own site. One day when I have an income I can buy some space.
