I am particularly interested in recording old song lyrics.
Any thoughts?

Sure! Well, song lyrics can be considered poetry. We have both a fortnightly and weekly poetry project and the current weekly selection is the poem, America the Beautiful, better know in its song version. There is a monthly short poetry project, and you can submit up to three recorded poems each month to be included in the monthly volume.

The main thing is to make sure that what you're reading from is in the public domain.

You may find older song books that are in the public domain on Gutenberg or more likely on Archive.

If in doubt, give a shout!
