I haven't used it (yet), but I have used two of their other products for many years and I have been happy with those.

That's a great find. Works pretty well. I've been looking for a replacement for GetLyrical since upgrading to BigSur. Thanks!
To echo Elucubrator, excellent find! It seems to be very fast and accurate; it seems to get lyrics for multiple songs at the same time. Get Lyrical would do one song at a time, and then get bogged down if it couldn't find it. Lyrics Finder does seem to be a little more scattershot, though. It finds some pretty obscure lyrics, but misses tracks on hugely popular albums.
Edit> I noticed that although it adds the lyrics in iTunes/Music, they (generally) don't transfer over to your phone when you sync - even if you delete all the music from your phone first. I had to rebuild my library first to get the lyrics to show on the phone. I think it's important to add the lyrics before you sync the phone.

add me to the list of searching for a Get Lyrical replacement. Not that intuitive but your suggestion works great. grabs lyrics in multiple songs and puts them in the meta of the song in the Music app. I use DesktopLyrics love the lyrics on my desktop while I am working
