We’re all familiar with the basics of how a search engine works - you type in a query and it retrieves relevant links to places around the web. It’s simple, easy to use, and helps us find what we’re looking for. Given this, I think you’ll enjoy a site called BeeMP3. BeeMP3 is a search engine for finding MP3 files on the Internet. Much like a regular search engine, they don’t host the files but direct you to them. This makes finding songs that you want easy.
Whether you’re looking for a song, an album, an artist, or you want to browse between all three, searching takes just seconds. When you visit the site you’ll see a big search box where you’ll enter in what you’re looking for. I typed “Kanye West” into the search field and it returned 322 different results. Several other searches turned up the results I’d expect as well.
BeeMP3 certainly isn’t unique - there are a few similar services out there. What is unique though is that they will show you the bitrate of the file which some of you will really appreciate. A bitrate over 128,000 (128KB) tells you that the quality of the song will be good. Just yesterday when I tried the service they weren’t providing the link to the download, you’d just click on the file and the “download file” box would appear with your option to save it. When I checked back today, they now provide the link so that you can paste it into a new window should the download not start automatically.
As you might expect, there is loads of copyrighted content that it aggregates, so download at your own risk.

Is this kinda like http://www.g2p.org? Its very convenient, yes. But most of the time people label songs wrong, or you don’t get full albums. I use Ruckus, then convert with FairUseWM4. Now that is good.
http://www.g2p.org is good…but all it does is search google…try http://www.skreemr.com…its really good…
I tried BeeMP3 out on a lot of different songs, and it was perfect every time.
There certainly are other options out there, but what I like best about this one is that they include the bitrate which others don’t.
Hey Ryan,
can you provide a screenshot where it shows the bitrate as it isn’t showing for the Indian songs I’m searching.
Okay, that was rather foolish of me. I discovered it.
I already would refer to SeeqPod, SkreemR, Songza; BeeMP3 brings another helpful music search and download engine. I love oldies from the sixties, and with BeeMP3 I found “Vacation” by Connie Francis, which was a hit in the early sixties!
Very good indeed i must say. found a couple one off songs i had been searching for a long time. thanx ryan
Great! Thanks but I had to use another search engine to find it- You should add a link in the post
Wow this site is awesome for finding rare songs! It won’t be long before they’re sued though, as even if they’re technically doing nothing wrong, the record labels will still bog them down in legal fees.
Oops, thought there was a link in the post!
Of course they will be sued…it’s almost like the RIAA doesn’t have enough people to go after already. If we’re lucky they might be hosted in a country that won’t care.
There is definitely a great variety of music available on there, but I’ve noticed some genres of music are harder to find than others.
Sorry, my mistake.
Looks good
