XANDRA  This does a fine job I like that you can select which sites to search, and that it doesn't rely on lyricswiki (which seems too flaky as a reliable source - not sure what goes on there, but it seems developers constantly need to rewrite).

I only wish it would include some non pop-music sites. Always have to manually hunt for jazz and/or showtunes.

Anyway, this does a fine job at what it does. But if you'd like lyrics displayed on the desktop as an (so that itunes can be in foreground) -- try the excellent "DesktopLyrics"  
(Version 0.8.2)

FREDDUCKER  The best I've found so far.  
(Version 0.8.1)

ISCREAM  Simply the best !

EMET1  I've been looking for a replacement for PearLyrics and happened to see this on MacUpdate today.

This is just brilliant!

Here's why:

1. It works. (Been using PearLyrics but it just doesn't work very well anymore. No surprise there, but I was using out of loyalty to the developer and hadn't found another that worked.)

2. It embeds the lyrics in the song file, every time. (PearLyrics was spotty on this one)

3. Flip over the widget and click Editor. It shows you the lyrics it found so you can edit them or clear them and start over. No need to go to Get Info in iTunes to make corrections (yay!). Click Save to save changes.

3. You can also see a list of songs it found that may or may not match your search. Very handy for cover versions. Haven't seen that before on a lyrics widget.

4. You can adjust font size. Very handy for displaying lyrics on your tv.

5. Color of the widget can be changed. Helps you see the lyrics easier.

6. It has keyboard shortcuts! (see developer's website for a list)

7. Very fast.

It works even faster if you've got your artists as First Name, Last Name. I mention this because previous versions of iTunes sorted artists incorrectly (Ella Fitzgerald under E) so I had changed my artists to Last Name, First Name. Now iTunes has Sort By options, which makes that unnecessary.

9. It's pretty without being ostentatious. (This is what critics refer to as style)

10. In constant development since 2005. That's dedication.

I used TunesTEXT with Doug's AppleScripts for iTunes (NoLyrics to Playlist and NeedleDrop).

NoLyrics will find all your music without lyrics and corrals them in a playlist. I weeded out the instrumentals and stuff I knew it wasn't going to find lyrics for. Then ran NeedleDrop for 30 seconds for each song. TunesText found the lyrics for everything that was left (practically).

Really excellent work.

THE HAWK  Very nice widget. Very intuitive. Some neat features. Well done!  
(Version 0.7.14)

ISCREAM  No longer embed lyrics in music files since iTunes 8.0.2 update  
(Version 0.7.12)

JAZZADDICT  Harmonic use to work for me but it started pasting the wrong lyrics to the wrong songs and over about a month time screwed up most my library. Checked out pear lyrics but I wasn't getting good search results. So far, this seems way better than anything else I've tried. Thank you developer! :-)

CHRIS_VAZQUEZ1  I absolutely LOVE this widget. Once the 1.1.4 January Update on the iTouch came out enabling lyrics I knew I had to get program or widget that did this. I looked long and hard and found Harmonic and it had great results HALF the time so I kept looking even the popular widgets like Sing That Itune!, had little bugs and then I came across this program and loved the simplicity and the fact that it didn't have ANY bugs. Two weeks ago Apple released the new iTunes update causing embedding problems, it was fixed with a QUICKNESS! Only wish that it had the option to add more sources, and if it had an album artwork embedder this would be PERFECT.

ELGATODEBELVA  The best lyrics widget, by far.  
(Version 0.7.11)

SIMON2007  Great widget!! Love it... But does anyone know why always I get "Please enable javascript to see this content" as the first line in the lyrics? Obviously it's enabled...
