Koala's List of Lyrics Sites

If you know of any other sites that should be included, sites that have moved or have closed, please mail me at koala@gel.com.au.

Sites that are **Koala Recommended** are marked with technologically unadvanced asterisks. I haven't had the chance to visit all these sites, so please don't assume I think a site is bad just because it's not **Koala Recommended**. If it's a crappy site, I'll probably say so. =)

Visit GEL for great web design (yeah yeah, one day I'll ask GEL to fix up this page for me :)
