Abstract
The article discusses the presence of lyrics in the digital space. The author concentrates on the accentuation of some basic issues related to editorial aspects of songs as well as on possibilities connected with their presence on a digital platform. Some songs in which the poetic function is emphasized have been taken into consideration. Moreover, the problem of multicoding and/or intermediality of this genre has been indicated. In particular, the author examines the project of Cyfrowa Biblioteka Polskiej Piosenki (Digital Library of the Polish Song) (http://www.bibliotekapiosenki. pl), explaining its genesis and structure as well as highlighting its contribution into the digital editing of lyrics. At the same time, the article describes various theoretical and practical problems that must be faced by individuals creating and editing that kind of bases (the reference to other “mass” internet portals dealing with texts: supermusic.cz and tekstowo.pl will not be omitted). The entire text is a unique reconnaissance among textual challenges connected with the song on the Internet.
