How long does it take you to learn the lyrics of a song?

The moment I discover a song that I like it takes me about two days of active listening to memorize it all.

How long does it take you to memorize a song?

If I put so much attention into learning the lyrics of a song, it is not going to take me that much time maybe probably between three weeks or thereabouts. I'm going to master new song lyrics.

That's a really interesting question!
I have a very good memory in any part of my live and it's the same with lyrics. It often takes me only two to three times to remember repeterives passages and a few more listens to know the rest, depending on the difficulty, variety of words/expressions and language.
English is not my native language so it often takes a little bit longer than in my mother tongue.

I have an active memory to retain things and I can learn any lyric of the song so easily without struggling. It made me a team leader when we are singing in the choir.

It takes me not less than three days to learn the lyrics of a song. If it's a favourite song, I'm putting all my energy to get it before a day.

I have actually learned the lyrics of one of my favorite songs in a day. Some also come naturally after a few days.

Well, it always depend on how fast you are in memorization. It takes some few weeks while some can do that in few hours.

I take a long time to memorise a song. I must sing a song many, many times before I remember it.

It depends on how sophisticated the lyrics are. Some music lyrics are very simple and easy to learn. Also, the use of Spotify makes it easier too because the song's lyrics are there too.

That is how I learn lyrics faster too. When I listen to the songs I make use of Spotify lyrics to sing along with it.

Honestly, I don't focus on trying to learn the lyrics of any song completely but I might just pick up the lyrics from listening to the songs constantly.

It's very easy to use. Also, it highlights as the song is going on which makes it very smooth to flow with the artist. Sadly, it's not all songs on Spotify that have lyrics.

Oh you don’t make a mental note to learn the lyrics? That means you find it easier to learn it and it comes to you naturally. I have to pay attention to it to learn it.

It can take me just a week to listen to any song before becoming very good at learning it. Trust me, I am that good at memorising songs that I tool interest in.

That still comes easily and early for you. There are some people that have to listen for many weeks and even months to get the hang of the songs.
