Genius made its name through its annotations to lyrics \u2014 explaining references and providing background information \u2014 and of course you can look forward to that as well.<\/p>\n<p class=\"graf--p\">The new update makes it much easier to follow along with the lyrics in a language you\u2019re not as familiar with \u2014 Rammstein has never been easier to understand! It\u2019s also good for settling pub arguments, preparing for karaoke and many other things. The app even provides lyrics to music that&#8217;s being played outside your phone, which is pretty damn handy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"graf--p\">What do you think? Try out the new update and let us know how it goes in the comments below. There\u2019s no indication when similar capabilities will come to the iOS version of the Genius app, but let\u2019s hope it\u2019s not too far off.<\/p>\n<p class=\"graf--p\">Thanks for checking out the article, and be sure to comment below!<\/p>\n\n<!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.27.4 -->\n<div class=\"quads-location quads-ad1\" id=\"quads-ad1\" style=\"float:none;margin:0px 0 0px 0;text-align:center;\">\n<div id=\"bari-widget\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cExcuse me, while I kiss this guy!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>These aren&#8217;t the real lyrics to Jimi Hendrix\u2019s Purple Haze, but that hasn&#8217;t stopped the phrase from entering the popular consciousness.
