Yup they are at it agian with ANOTHER cool tool....

built-in music playback results on regular Google search queries

We already knew it was coming, but today Google is officially launching built-in music playback results on regular Google search queries.

Much has been made of this new feature, and it certainly will make it easier for users to get straight to a song they're looking for, but it's not something we're getting all that excited about. We'll admit that finding and playing back a song when all you've done is search for lyrics is kind of cool. Still, Google already puts video results from YouTube in the search results page, and more often than not they're what you're looking for, anyway.

Right now we're not seeing the updates in our results, but chances are you'll start seeing them in the next day or so if you aren't already.

So what do you think? Excited about the new music-in-Google features, or kind of lukewarm like us? Let's hear your thoughts in the comments.
