Hey Proclaim! A problem I have had intermittently over the years is that I will load a previously used song into a presentation, the title will be correct, but the lyrics that end up importing are actually from a different song.
For instance, this morning I tried to load "No Longer Slaves" and thought that I had done so because the song title said "No Longer Slaves". However, when we started playing the song, the lyrics that had imported and some how had become associated with this title were for "Build My Life".
Not sure how or why this happens but it is always an unwelcome surprise when it occurs. Any thoughts or recommendations?
- Hey John Pillen can you take a look at what Mark mentioned as his information he posted is very helpful. I'll bring this up with the team and see if we can make an improvement when duplicating presentations. Thanks Mark for your input as well.

Thanks Mark for your advice. I follow the same procedure that you outlined above. I will be more careful about selecting the song as opposed to hitting enter - but I think I am already doing this. Regardless, I have still found that in the "My Songs" section, somehow, some song titles get associated with the wrong lyrics. For instance, right now if I start typing "hark the" - the first song title that appears is "Hark the Herald" with the lyrics listed in the preview of that from "Love Came Down" by Brian Johnson. I've never manually substituted the lyrics of "Love Came Down" for "Hark the Herald Angels Sing" so it's strange. The only thing I can guess might somehow contribute to this is that when setting up presentations, after selecting a theme and setting up the formatting of the first song, rather than clicking "Add New Song", I will duplicate the first song and then change the song title/lyrics so that I don't have to redo all the formatting I already set-up and want to be consistent. I don't know if this somehow messes things up in the inner workings of Proclaim.- John Pillen and Mark Vojtasek, thanks for the detailed feedback. We'll spend some time investigating this and see if we can make this less likely to happen.
