This may be a stupid ? especially coming from a beta member but I have just recently started using the search feature frequently.
Well to get to the point what is the format to only search a specific field [Lyrics] for example.
Knowing this would be very helpful since for the most part I don't know songs by [Name] even when I know every syllable of the lyrics.
I know I can use the wizard and enter [Lyrics] contains "some phrase" but how do I enter that as a normal text entry/expression.

Going into options and check marking "default search field" for x field and then entering "[x field]=some word/phrase" does not return expected results am I missing something.
example I entered
"lyrics= go down on you" no quotes which should have returned Alanis Morrisette-You Oughta Know since
"Is she perverted like me Would she go down on you in a theater" is in the lyrics.

   lyrics="go down on you"

You need to quote the search phrase, otherwise the whitespace means AND, so you get:

   lyrics=go AND
     down   AND
     on        AND
     you

which is four separate search terms.
