Spotify Premium in practice has new benefits!

More specifically: Lyrics that they took away from regular users some time ago.

Seriously, damn, that's feels like such a basic thing

I remember I used to have an add-on (at least I think it was an add-on; didn't Spotify officially support those at some point?) that synced the lyrics of a song to the timestamp. It used user submissions to figure out the timestamps and edit the lyrics. It was pretty cool.
