Just copy-paste the following 3 commands into Terminal
1. Add Songbird-daily PPA and GPG Key. Copy-paste the following line into Terminal
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:songbird-daily/ppa
2. Update your list
sudo apt-get update
3. Install Songbird
sudo apt-get install songbird
Songbird is now installed but IF you can't see a launcher on Applications>Sound&Video .. let's create one:
1. Right click on gnome's menu > Edit Menus
(or right click on Desktop > Create Launcher. It depends where you want the launcher. I suggest IN the menu)
2. Go to Sound&Video and then push New Item
3. Select a name, in our case: Songbird
4. On command click Browse.. and follow the path: /usr/lib/songbird then select songbird (the one with no extension)
You may choose a custon icon as well there by clicking the image icon, but I think songbird's default icon is being automatically selected.
5. Have fun with Songbird

Just one tip, the third installation line is case sensitive, so instead of capitalizing Songbird, it's all lowercase:
sudo apt-get install songbird
It took a few minutes to figure out why the package couldn't be found. ;)
you are correct! thanks ;)
Perfect! nothing else worked! this did! thanks!
