hi,
it seems that google allows 100 searches per day for free.
after it, i just get error messages, no lyrics. (see below)
could you please find an other way to fetch lyrics?
thanks,
cs

Probably we will switch to DuckDuckGo in the future. Thanks for reporting this issue.

I had similar issues, otherwise I really like this script. Changing google->duckduckgo in the script alone won't work, so I'm looking forward to trying the new release with duckduckgo as a search engine (qwant, startpage or unbubble.eu could be also considered, if there is something wrong with duckduckgo).

Every alternative search engine is broken.
The multi-site search for ddg as well as qwant are garbage. They seem to return results of only one of the sites entered, and don't return search-term related links.
Other notable thing is that DDG has a 500 character limit for searches, so you can't have all the plugins.

Current best option with alternative search engines is just a single site.
