So I created an online service called LyricsMeaning to do just that, and also the functionality to add comments/interpretation of the lyrics.

All you need is winamp (5.5 or greater) installed, then you can add the online service directly from here.

Whenever a song is played, it will automatically search the web for the lyrics and display it.  If it cannot be found you can add the lyrics yourself.   Interpretation / comments are open to all, and it’s nice to see other’s interpretation of the lyrics.

Key features include : 
*Just play a song in winamp, and the lyrics will automatically be found
*Leave your meaning / interpretation of lyric fast and easy
*Save lyrics to hard drive in one click.
*It’s all for free 🙂

Hope you enjoy it, leave a comment below if you have any suggestions.

Technical Specs :
Made in 2005, using ASP.NET web forms, MsSql database, and it uses a lot of the winamp online services JS functions to communicate with Winamp.

That’s when I decided to make use of Winamp’s Online Services and create a plugin to automatically search and display various tabs and lyrics whenever a song is played!

It outdated at the moment, but you can add to Winamp from here

You can also search for it by opening Winamp, open media library – online services, and search for Pikkipowpow.

You can also check out the web home page, but not much going on there.

I will hopefully get some time in future to fix it up a bit, not sure its 100% functional anymore
