My Question or Issue

This is so frustrating i dont know which song is which after the translation.
Even when i use google to get the Japanese version of the song and add into my playlist.
Once i navigate to the artist's page it would show the English title as well.
Its so broken, even my Spotify is in Japanese it would still translate the title to English like WHY???????
It happens in both web version and app version, all the same
Please just stop translating them just leave it as it is

Hey there @kurodouble,

Thanks for the feedback.

Keep in mind that the title of the releases is completely up to the artist or their distributor. If the titles are appearing in English and not in their original language, it's because the content was uploaded that way. The Spotify app doesn't translate any song title.

If anything else comes up, the Community will be here.

Hi, thanks for the reply,

but when i search for the song in japanese one by one it can be shown in the original language.

But despite my language setting is in japanese, it always shows up the english title for me and not the japanese one.

If spotify does'nt auto translate song perhaps it should display the title which match the language settings (in my case japanese title should be prioritize)

Agree, why spotify do the annoying thing? Please provide an option to disable it at least.

I've noticed that when russian albums gets like unavailable (like you know how songs can get grayed out and can't be played) the titles gets translated to english, so when you go to see the album thats unplayable the titles are all in english? For example a song named "ночь" will then be named "night". So random
