Thank you for asking!
I think the best way for you to help add to this site is to email
me (put something creative before the @ sign before cory.de and I'll get
it, this is spam protection) lyrics to any songs, add evaluations
of songs, of bands, and of course the different part about this page:
the pedagogical hints which I hope will be rolling in any day now!
I list the methods in order of ease:
1. Easiest and best: If you have a mail program that will let you
attach documents directly from your hard drive without uploading, such as
Eudora, do it! I haven't used it but I believe you find something
saying attachment and you type the filename or perhaps you browse
among your files. All formatting saved, no cutting and pasting, beautiful!
2. Using Pine or similar: Upload your document to your email account
in binary or ASCII using FTP (File Transfer Protocol -- sounds worse than
it is) or Fetch (Mac=easy) and attach it to an email message to me. If you
are in a computer lab, a consultant should be able to show you how to use
FTP (now available in several graphical versions!) or Fetch.
2. Cut and Paste: Open your document in your word processing program,
select all, and paste it directly into the body of an email message to me.
Special characters may be lost, depending on what country you're in.
I will be adding everything manually, so feel free to add extra instructions.
If you know of more music sites with songs I don't have on them, please
tell me! If you have any ideas about organization, please say so!
Again, I am interested in:
I can only hope for people to send me lyrics they've already typed in for
other purposes, but if you are generous enough to type things in freshly,
colleagues worldwide will appreciate it!
Thanks for coming!

If you can't find something, try my Other
Music Sites, or google.com:
enter a phrase from the song you want, something without umlauts or ß.
Put quotes around it too to search for the exact phrase.

Maybe some of you reading this are native English speakers like
me who live in some German-speaking country. If you live in Munich, you might
be interested in a web forum I participate in with a guide to all kinds of
topics that Expats in Germany find fascinating -- like where to get
British and American foods in Germany / Munich, what's fun to do
if you don't speak German or where you don't have to speak German to enjoy
it. Where to see English language movies or get English language books, that
kind of thing. It's called Toytown
Munich - Munich's native English speaking crowd! If you're moving
to Munich it's full of how to find an apartment and where are people meeting
up. Many people in a foreign country get tired of having people practice their
English on them -- at Toytown, it won't happen. All kinds of events and Stammtisches
are listed here, classified ads for people moving to and from Munich, jobs
wanted and offered, where to get good Mexican food in Munich, where to get
a hot curry in Munich (Sitar!), etc. BTW, the site uses Invision Power Board
and Movable Type. Androv Dessous is a German online lingerie shop run by a friend of mine. Specializing in bras for larger ladies..
