After a bunch of mess getting it installed on Mac OS X, I get it to find a song, which is a bit of trouble in and of itself, and am then stuck with this error: sh: youtube-dl: command not found

Are you intending to use the author's program or youtube-dl directly?

This was sufficient for me on OS X 10.10.5:

  pip install instantmusic
  brew install ffmpeg

  instantmusic
  > ...some lyrics...

  afplay foo.mp3

Yep, this project depends on youtube-dl[1] (which is an awesome tool anyway, so if you don't have it already, you should consider grabbing it regardless).
