I have searched the issue tracker for a feature request that matches the one I want to file, without success.

Problem Description

For a song that has multiple lyrics, such as Bling-Bang-Bang-Born, it would be nice to choose which lyrics you wish to view. For example, with the above song, the first lyric returned by the LRCLib API is a romanized version of the original song. The very next lyric is the normal version, with Japanese hiragana and kanji.

Proposed Solution

It would be nice if there was a way to select between the different lyric tracks, such as a smaller box below the "LRCLib" toggle that allows you to switch between the different lyric tracks. This way is likely the least intrusive way, but you could also add this box to the bottom of the lyrics panel instead.

Alternatives Considered

I mean, you could also just look up some different lyrics or use LyricsGenius or YT Music, but LRCLib is properly synced, where the other two sometimes aren't.

Additional Information

This problem mostly just stems from the fact that Synced-Lyrics chooses the first lyric track available, and doesn't allow the user to change this. Choosing the first track isn't bad on its own, but when the first track is not the best one, it's not great. As well, when the first track is a romanization, it made me think that the "Romanize lyrics" option was enabled, when I specifically disabled it.
