It seems in the last year, the Spotify client behaves differently after the computer had been suspended (entered sleep mode).

What works:

Playback of tracks

Lyrics view

What doesn't:

About the artist just shows an animated lines(part of Now playing view)

Clicking on an artist to view their page. (Instead it just acts like its waiting for a response from a server that eventually times out)

Searching for songs similar to clicking on an artist.

Can only fix by exiting Spotify and restarting.

Seems Spotify must be using a threaded/multi-process model to make multiple requests simultaneously, and only the song fetch one works again after suspend terminates connections.
