There are two companies available who are intermediaries between me (site) and the lyrics publisher (writer) and handle all licensing:

- Gracenote (they sold their lyrics licensing to lyricfind)

- Lyricfind

E.g. Google and Bing also license their lyrics offering through Lyricfind.

I only deal with them.

Out of curiosity, is getting the rights to a lyric catalogue a 4 figure, 5 figure, 6 figure deal?
Back then there was a minimum commitment in the 6 figures.
