Frequently Asked Questions
General Site
What is "Distant Melody"? Who runs the site?
You can find out more about the general purpose of this site in the "About" section.
Soundtracks and Music
Can I still get a past song of the month?
Unfortunately, no. I am regretfully no longer able to take care of the many requests for previous songs. I do encourage you to purchase the soundtrack, provided there is one available. You can find out more about purchasing your desired soundtrack in the Shopping Guide.
Where can I buy soundtracks or sheet music?
Due to interest from visitors, I have created a Shopping Guide that lists some places you can buy soundtracks and sheet music. The list is not all-inclusive, so if you have a question about a particular soundtrack and don't see it listed on the page, you may contact me.

You can request, submit, and correct lyrics through Distant Melody's Forums. On the main page of the message board, there is a forum for each section (Ex: Submit Lyrics). Enter the desired forum and read the guidelines and view the example threads to get started.

I've submitted lyrics, but they haven't been posted on the site.
The most likely reason is that I've gotten behind on submissions. I usually post submitted lyrics sporadically, so the lyrics you submitted may go up right away or months later.
Another less likely reason is that the lyrics were submitted in the wrong format or had too many spelling and grammatical errors. In such cases, I have no choice but to delete the submission.
