"Couldn't load the lyrics for this song" error

[#1]

As of version 8.8.20.544 and the version prior to that has caused the lyrics from my personal playlist in my device 'Samsung-SMJ250F' to disappear, at first I thought it was brcause the songs were old but way older songs still had lyrics
The playlist is a private playlist featuring all songs of 'DragonForce'
and after the update none of the songs had lyrics.

[#2]

the lyrics do not show at all and even the lyrics icon on pc is missing. i have premium so that should not be the problem

[Squigles]

Litterly don't get lyrics at all anymore, not on my phone and aswell as my playstation anymore, litterly just fix it, stop acting like you cant

[sinotipe]

Long time doesnt work of showing lyrics. (unavailible, no texts,...or any other issues).
Now is the problem solved.
In desktop player are lyrics availible only for premium users now!!!
Why should I pay for something that doesn't work? Stupid!

My Question or Issue

Why almost all the national anthem in spotify dont have lyrics meanwhile in youtube they do.

[luizclaudio]

Some songs by famous bands do not show the lyrics, instead showing the storyline, history and other things. I would like to ser the lyrics of the song, but it do not appear due to the other widgets.

Suggestion: option to disable storylines and other widgets, showing only the song lyrics.

• Example: "Wherever I May Roam" from Metallica do not show lyrics.

so how can i fix it

[BunchOfScammers]

Spotify are money grabbing cunts I've moved over to Amazon music you don't need a premium account for lyrics so bye bye Spotify 

[SketchyGoose]

its 2024 and it still does not work lol

[#17]

Lyrics stopped loading for me a while ago, I just never took the time to search for a reason.

I live in Texas and at one point was able to see pyrics for most songs. Now, I am unable to see lyrics for any song. Not a single one.

I have a Samsung S21+. I pay for a premium account.

Songs, literally ANY song i click onto will not load any lyrics. songs like popular ones, old ones even ones i KNOW had lyrics before. This all started suddenly and no matter what i do to restart or reset my spoitify won't load the lyrics for ANY songs. its the normal error "couldn't load the lyrics for this song". you could ask me to search up any song you know has lyrics on spotify and i can assure you it won't appear on my phone

My Question or Issue

I have noticed that lyrics for new releases get seemingly removed as if never existed beforehand after 1-2 weeks. Literally yesterday could read them, overnight the message that lyrics are not available for the song is present. This has been going on for over a year. Also this doesn't just affect 1 device, but my whole account across multiple devices (Mobile,Laptop,Desktop) Anybody knows anything?

[stephanie71]

can it work on school compurters

So Im in a Premium Duo plan for 7 months now and through out this period Ive tried everything to get the lyrics option but it just never pops up? Is there any reason for this? P.S: Im on an android device.
