I wish it was that easy. It's because some (most) lyrics (such as in the screenshot I posted) also contain dialouge in the same subtitle frame. I don't know of any program that allows you have different colors of subtitles in the same line. In fact, when I created the subtitles in DVD-Lab, they were all yellow, since that is another limitation of the program. I used DVDsubEdit to change the "location" subs to white and to add the black box behind the English ones, as well as moved the subtitles to where I needed them.

I did find a font out there called Bach that has regular text as well as musical notes. However, I need the font to be Arial so that it maches the official English "location" text. I finally did figure out how to use DVD-Lab to have some subs in itallics and some not.
