Analyse of "Explicit Lyrics" and the tag

Hi there,
i have to filter my music collection for titles with "Explicit Lyrics" or specific words.
to do this manually would be impossible.

so i have this weird idea to use something like foo_lyricsgrabber to get as much available lyrics from my titles, then tweak something like foo_quicksearch to search the lyrics for specific words and then make a script for masstagger to write these words in a field.

example:
[blockquote]- i set the word "Ballerina" on my list of "Explicit Lyrics"
- i add new tracks to my collection or use existing ones
- i got the lyrics from gracenote or were ever
- then i start my search
- one of the songs is "boat behind" of kings by Kings Of Convenience with the phrase "
"...
Skiffle and ride (Skiffle and ride)
shuffle and walk (shuffle and walk)
You're the up tip toe ballerina
In the chorus line
..."
- in the %explicit lyrics% field will add the value "Ballerina"[/blockquote]

did anybody tried something like this or how realistic is my idea to do a automatism?
thank you very much!

On a first thought, maybe use custom column:

Code: [Select]
$if(
$or(
$strstr(%lyrics%,rape),
$strstr(%lyrics%,suicide),
$strstr(%lyrics%,murder)
...
),
Yes,No)

I don't know about performance degradation in this case, but it doesn't look bad with above three words (its case sensitive BTW)

Use the library search with a query like
Code: [Select]
lyrics HAS murder
After you can Control+A (select all) and add the value you want to all files in one go. The masstagger component with the "Add Value" action would be good here, to allow for multiple values.
