google onebox Google OneBox Launches, Stream Music from SearchOn Wednesday night, Google OneBox was born. U.S. users are now one click away from listening to a full-length song in that you are now able to stream songs directly from Google’s results page.

Google OneBox will let users stream songs directly from the Google search results page and will also include additional information such as tour information and even music videos.

Users can search by artist name, album title or song title and can even find a song by entering in portions of its lyrics.

The new box mashes down other search results, such as the artist's home page and fan site, and reduces what Google refers to as "time to result," which means how much clicking is needed to hear a song.

From the official Google blog...

Now, when you enter a music-related query — like the name of a song, artist or album — your search results will include links to an audio preview of those songs provided by our music search partners MySpace (which just acquired iLike) or Lala. When you click the result you’ll be able to listen to an audio preview of the song directly from one of those partners. For example, if I search for [21st Century Breakdown], the first results provide links to songs from Green Day’s new album. MySpace and Lala also provide links to purchase the full song.

Many times, though, you don’t know the name of the song or the artist who sings it. Maybe you remember only the chorus — or maybe you remember who sang it, but you forgot the exact name of the song. If you’ve ever heard a catchy song in a car or cafe, but just can’t figure out the name of the song, you’ll know what I’m talking about. This search feature also helps you find many of those songs by entering a search containing a line or two of lyrics. So if I search for [static silhouette somehow], I’ll get results for Phoenix’s song "Rome."
