LyricGraph
This project uses vis.js to create interactive graphs of song lyrics.
Each word in a song is presented as a node, with size according to number of occurrences. Edges are created based on word proximity
in the song (so words directly before/after are linked) allowing you to follow the edges and read the song out loud. The graph uses a
physics simulation, so you can drag nodes around to coarsly re-shape the graph.
http://lyrics.wikia.com supplies the lyrics, free for non-commercial use.

Installation and Use
Download and run npm install to install required components (express, body-parser, and xml2js)
Run index.js to start the server, then navigate to localhost:8080 to view the graph.
Enter a song title and artist name into the input fields to search for a song. If found, a graph will be generated, otherwise a popup will alert you that the song could not be found.
