A phone lyric screen: the sung line big and bold, the rest dimmed and blurred, synced word by word to a song. - **Slug:** `want-apple-music-lyric-video` - **Status:** wanted - **Publisher:** Jeff Guo (community) - **Source:** https://x.com/immasiddx/status/2074152481555386804 - **Cost:** ~25 credits / run (estimate) — Lyria 3.5 ~11 per song + Whisper ~6 + render ~6 (varg catalog of 2026-10-23); a song the user uploads skips Lyria. ## What it does A screen recording of a streaming app's full-screen lyrics view: the active line is large and white, neighboring lines fade and blur with distance, and the list spring-scrolls on every line. It took off with Jeff Guo's "Claude's Plan", a dev-culture parody whose lyric-screen clip reached 1.7M views in one X repost and, by the creator's count, 190K Douyin likes in a day. An agent generates an original song from the user's lyrics with Lyria 3.5 or ElevenLabs Music v2.5, force-aligns word times with Whisper to the known lyrics (Jeff used stable-whisper and librosa for the drops), and renders an in-house lyric player in HyperFrames with an optional album-art header, mesh-gradient background and translation line. varg puts the song, the timing and the render on one credit balance. ## Status A format people ask for that has no dedicated skill yet. Make it with the skills on the use-case pages below, or with varg directly.
