Sangboken inneholder OVER 200 SANGER!!! Du finner barnesanger, julesanger og norske sanger. Se listen over sanger på http://norsksang.venabili.com Med Sangboken har du alltid tilgang til tekstene. Sangboken kan med et enkelt trykk SØKE PÅ YOUTUBE så du kan høre de fleste sangene. Dette er en morsom måte å lytte til alle de kjente sangene på. Hvis sangen du søker ikke er der, så har du også muligheten selv å LEGGE TIL EN TEKST og se den i Favoritter. Den vil samtidig bli lastet opp til en database, og kan inngå i Sangboken slik at alle andre kan få glede av den. Alle sangene er lagret på en database på internettet, men ved å legge til favoritter, kan du gjøre dem tilgjengelig offline. Det vil jevnlig bli lagt til sanger dersom forfatteren kan gi sitt samtykke.. NB: Det er ingen noter og akkorder i Sangboken. P.t. er alle sangene i Sangboken copyright-frie, dvs. at forfatteren har vært død i over 70 år.
